Godzilla vs. Hulk #1 might not deliver the straightforward monster-on-monster fight you're expecting, it offers arguably even more fun: a surprise team-up, Godzilla getting a gamma power-up, and some seriously satisfying kaiju carnage. Read Full Review
Godzilla vs. Hulk #1 is a brawl-heavy spectacle that lives up to its name with stunning Kaiju action and a bold throwback tone, even if it occasionally fumbles its character balance. Despite its abrupt ending and uneven focus, it's a visually thrilling opening salvo that sets the stage for a summer of Marvel mayhem. Read Full Review
Godzilla vs Hulk #1 doesn't deliver what is expected but the story we do get worked to create a well put together narrative. Going against expectations worked because of the reason given as to why Godzilla and Hulk ultimately teamed up. It does not make you forget the disappointment of a Godzilla vs Hulk throwdown but at least it was a fine alternative. Read Full Review
The best Godzilla stories use the monster to talk about humanity. Shin Godzilla and Godzilla Minus One are both extremely deep Godzilla movies, while the American Godzilla movies of the '10s and the '20s have been more about crowd-pleasing entertainment. Godzilla Vs. Hulk #1 definitely plays into the latter. Duggan was never going to tell a Shin or Minus One-type story it's just not his way of writing superhero comics but he does sell an entertaining kaiju romp to readers, one that hearkens back to the older days of Marvel and Godzilla. Camuncoli, Orlandini, and Blee's art is the best part of the book, keeping that old school feel while lovingly rendering the kaiju. There's some interesting bits of world-building throughout the issue, but not so interesting they overshadow the main event. All told, this is an average comic, but that's fine. Not everything needs to be groundbreaking and deep, and fans of Godzilla will definitely enjoy this book. Read Full Review
this was a really fun and entertaining anthology. I wanted kaijus hitting each other, and that's exactly what I got.
Overall, the comic provides a decent introduction to Hulk meeting Godzilla. However, majority of the story is just the usual Godzilla story where the army is trying to stop Godzilla, it was all right, but could’ve been way better if the stakes were higher and if hulk really just did more.
