Hey nobody let me know that there was a Kaiju thread going!

Meet Kaijucon (one of my many personalities )

I'm obsessed with the G-Man, Big Green, and The Rad Reptile

I am only a fan of the Godzilla movies from 1954 to 1975.
Because I loved the cheezy back grounds & props. the women were entertaining as they viewed the gigantic monsters as religious gods That they worshipped.

I don't care for any of the newer Godzilla movies that were made 10 to 20 years ago.

I hated that Godzilla cartoon with that godzooky creature.

Godzooky? A Godzilla-Snooky hybrid?

Anyways, the 80's series is absolute win. I love Biollante and Destroya, just epic designs. Plus any movie featuring Ghidra is a good one.

I've been getting into Godzilla comics.

I recently read Essential Godzilla written by Doug Moench and art by Herb Trimpe. This black & white trade collects Marvel’s late 70’s Godzilla comics. It’s the craziest book I’ve read in a long time. It’s fun to see Godzilla interact with Marvel super heroes like the Fantastic Four and The Avengers. At one point, Godzilla shrinks down and hides among people by wearing a hat and trenchcoat like a Ninja Turtle.

It's crazy stuff.

Dum Dum Dugan and SHIELD are assigned to capture Godzilla. It’s weird seeing Dum Dum acting like a jerk. All Godzilla wants to do is smash stuff. It also stars Agents of Atlas’ Jimmy Woo.



The new IDW Godzilla series is pretty fantastic. It's co-written by Eric Powell, who makes The Goon comics (so you know it's a dark humor book) and this story is drawn by one of my favorites Phil Hester. It's fun and pure mayhem. It's pretty much Godzilla destroying stuff for 22 pages an issue.

I used to read and collect the Dark Horse Godzilla series, pretty good series. Sadly they only had the rights to Godzilla, and the names to G-Force and Mechagodzilla, so the whole series was full of original monsters and stuff.
The only thing I didn't like about it was the fact that it was set in the US and that the few Japanese main characters turned into white Americans as the series progressed oh and the different artists from issue to issue.
I won't start reading the new idw series though, the series will likely be just a couple of miniseries with little to no continuity between them, and if they do idw will reboot it and piss me off after a while anyway. Too many bad experiences with that company.

When i was a kid i was absolutely bonkers for Godzilla. Of course he's still rad and i'm always chekin out whats happening with him now and again. Just got my GF a big ass Gzilla figure the other day for her apartment actually. SHe's stoked on it to my surprise. I was hoping she'd hate it and i'd have it.

Back in the early 80's i'd run home from school for lunch as fast as i could to catch an old black and white half hour show of Godzilla. I cant remember the full name of it but i'm pretty sure it was called "Godzilla King of the Monsters" or just "Godzilla". It had an awesome theme song that i'd dance too all over the house when it came on.

A punishment for me as a kid that my parents would use against me was to not allow me to watch it or threaten to not let me watch it if i didn't do what i was told. I was OBSESSED with Godzilla.

I'm more of a fan of the vintage Godzilla though and all the campy awesomeness.

Was it Godzilla’s Revenge, Godzilla vs. Hedorah?


PS. There are two releases of the original, the awful American version: Godzilla: King of the Monsters. Then thay made an awesome new release of: Gojira
