  All in all this has been a great issue and I cannot freaking wait to see where this series is head with the new villains. Especially with the tease of next issue focusing on Megalon and King Caesar. Highly recommend this issue to fans of the Godzilla and giant monsters in general. Read Full Review

  In the meantime, enjoy the work that Mowry and Frank bring to this great on-going version of the King of the Monsters before IDW pulls the plug on this and replaces it with Godzilla: Age of Continuity Despair. Read Full Review

  Unleash The Fanboy - Daniel Alvarez

  Overall, Issue #8 is solid. The fight between Godzilla and Biollante is really fun despite the rather anti-climatic ending to it. The Devonians have become petty good antagonists for the book. Sadly it isn't the 'big' issue the description would have you believe. Jet Jaguar at least has some fun scenes, despite what people might say I think he's a great addition to the story. So while not the best issue, it's still a good read. Read Full Review

  Godzilla fans of all ages and intensities will appreciate this issue and, if the creative team can keep this up, it could easily become the go-to introduction for skeptical converts to the Godzilla brand. Read Full Review

  As well as the showpiece rumble between Godzilla and Biolante there a couple of side stories with, yknow, dialogue and stuff. Theres a flying robot, weird fish people from the depths of the ocean and an invading force of shape shifting aliens. With so many things happening at once in this book it borders on hyperactivity and at times it feels like the story is being told by a breathless nine year old acting it out with toys. Yet, the enthusiasm and joy that Chris Mowry and Matt Frank bring to the story, along with their obvious love for the characters, just about bring it home. Read Full Review

  With excitement building over the new Godzilla movie that's being released in May, this is the exact wrong time for the kaiju franchise to have just a single ongoing book that only rewards longtime fans. Read Full Review
