    AIPT - David Brooke Aug 28, 2013

    The first issue of this series got a 9 from me, the second an 8.5 because it was mostly action, but I have to say the creative team outdid themselves on this one. It's mostly due to a stellar pace that cuts between action and story very nicely. You're never bored, never confused and always entertained. At the end of the day, isn't that all you want from a comic to release some steam? Read Full Review

    Analog Addiction - Tony Couto Sep 1, 2013

    This series doesn't bother with melodramatic tension, but still creates drama with the most unsuspecting of characters, like Godzilla itself.It's tough to make each character equally rounded, but the CKR Science Division could use a little more definition. Still,Godzilla: Rulers of Earth #3 is a grossly fun experience for camp lovers. Read Full Review

    Unleash The Fanboy - Daniel Alvarez Aug 27, 2013

    Overall, this is definitely an issue I especially see newcomers to the franchise liking a lot. It features plenty of soldier vs. kaiju action, which can either be a really dull or pretty cool thing. It's the latter, the story perfectly balances human dialogue and action. The plot is moving along nicely, with the the aliens taking center stage. With plenty of things being set up for coming issues, you can bet it's going to remain exciting. Next month: Dawn of Destoroyah! Read Full Review

    There are some serious weak spots, but Godzilla: Rulers of the Earth #3 is a gorgeous issue, and one that Kaiju fans will likely remember for a long while. Read Full Review

    Newsarama - Rob McMonigal Aug 29, 2013

    Unlike other Godzilla series, this one doesn't have any people the reader can attach themselves to and care about. The soldier is just too generic to fill the role, and the dialogue here is just about as stock as the characters. Read Full Review

    Comic Bastards - Carl Boehm Aug 28, 2013

    Where the previous issue showed improvement, this book falls right back into typical IDW Godzilla format with an abundance of talking and a lack of monster fighting. Read Full Review
