The cataclysmic crossover between the DCU and Legendary's Monsterverse continues! The Justice League have regrouped after their initial losses and discover nefarious plans by the Legion of Doom AND the League of Assassins are underway to use the Monsters for their evil purposes. As Lois Lane uncovers truths about the monster's identities, the League also learns of a beacon that's drawing all the creatures to one location...the final battle to save Earth is about to begin!
This issue is much like reaching the top of the rollercoaster and then hitting that first drop. On every page, we are met with something that brings pure joy and delight. The Lantern Corp showing up, the Titans, Grodd with a Kryptonite horn, and much more. It's truly the gift that continues to give, and making the Justice League of all teams feel desperation and have their backs to the wall is not easy. The fact Lex Luthor is now suited up as Mechagodzilla alone makes this story an instant classic. Read Full Review
Breathtaking from start to finish, an incredible story that is set to explode in the finale. A cross over you may not have ever thought about but you definitely need to get involved with. Almost creative perfection. Read Full Review
Naturally, Lex Luthor is stacking the odds in his favor as this event nears its conclusion. This has been a very fun read giving equal spotlight to all the parties even if Superman has to stay on the sidelines to make the battle more unpredictable. Read Full Review

Derenick delivers some beautifully detailed art throughout the issue. The story is filled with great action and the art delivers on that action with visual thrills. Read Full Review
Amid all of this, there's a ton of explosive monster action to look forward tobut it's impossible to note that it's the final issue next, and most of the characters in the title have barely met. Read Full Review
As the issues keep releasing, hopefully, more and more storylines will wrap up, leading to a satisfying overall ending in the future. For now, though, I'm going to continue making predictions about what's motivating everybody in this series, and hoping that Superman and Lois get to confirm their engagement. Read Full Review
Well that just means we have to wrap all this up in just two more issues. It's a lot of fun for sure. But I don't know if we advanced the overall book much this time. And brainwashed Supergirl is always a sad sight for me. Read Full Review
While the fight is thrilling, this issue overall isn't the strongest in the series, but what it sets up will hopefully pay off for even bigger things down the line. Read Full Review
The action continues in Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong #5, but the series isn't offering much more than that. Read Full Review
Discounting the fact that the cover is awful, I'm really enjoying this series. I love the stuff with Atlantis. I first I thought the Kraken was a ripoff of Clash of the Titans, which it is. However, it worked in this issue. Also, the stuff with Lois and Mercy worked as well. Having the looming fate of Superman keeps everything moving. I love Gorilla Groodd appearing, but I have no idea how they got to Skull Island.

This book is doing what it set out to do for the most part. It doesn't completely flow, but there are a lot of different ways to handle this concept and playing it completely straight is a tough one to pull off. It feels a bit by the numbers that it's setting things up for Godzilla to save the day, but that's a legitimate homage to the source material. I'd hoped to see Batman punch a kaiju, but instead we'll get Godzilla and Kong wrastlin' Lex Luthor's Mobile Suit Mechagodzilla and a psycho Lazarus pit kaiju. I can live with that. Extra points if Godzilla and Superman shake hands at the end.
