Reviews

[Derek Moreland]

A fine continuation of the story began in the previous volume. Nothing special, but not horrible either. Call it 2 and a half stars.

[Adrian Bloxham]

Ace!

[Ti]

Easy storyline to follow, has want I think looks like Mecha g3, also Godzilla, mothra, gigan, hedorah, monster x and spacegodzilla (plus everyone already on monster Island)

[Doctor Doom]

The kaiju story is strong... the human story, not so much.

[Mark]

Big monsters smash things up, humans try to stop them (again).

[Donavon]

Still not a fan of human characters, but a good cliffhanger leading into final arc of series...

[Jordan]

More wholesome epic battles.

[Steven Shinder]

When it comes to the art, the monsters thrive and the humans get the short end of the stick.

[Robert]

Review is for the three volumes by Duane Swierczynski

The writing is better than previous arcs, but half of the books are just big-lizard-smash, so even the best words only go so far.

[James]

Boxer's monster hunter team aims to capture Godzilla, but they have competition from a billionaire who has built his own Mechagodzilla. After a brief time in jail, the team resume their pursuit; attempt to guide Godzilla to a volcano with explosives due to their ineffective "headache" gun. Dr Pohl captures Godzilla which seems to trigger the arrival of the space monsters. I felt this one wasn't as well-paced and not much happens.
