Description

“

Godzilla is living inside of a teenage boy, and a legion of kaiju are beginning a stampede across America... Godzilla has returned! No physical body. All kai-sei energy... all rage... all currently stuck inside of Jacen (or possibly, Jacen is stuck inside of it?) As Jacen and G-Force attempt to stop this more powerful and more mysterious version of Godzilla, a strange girl named May uses the opportunity to start a kaiju stampede. That’s right: coming in hot from all corners of the country with no king to keep them in check and a strange desire to head towards a farm in the Midwest, this legion of kaiju is posed to crush every last bit of the United States on their way.

Trivia

• This issue released the same day as IDW's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x Godzilla #4 and Titan Comics' Escape from Skull Island #2.
• The retailer incentive cover by Louie De Martinis recreates the Japanese poster for Godzilla Raids Again.
• Incense describes Jacen's Godzilla form as an "energy ghost Godzilla thing," a possible nod to the scrapped monster Ghost Godzilla.
• Riviera refers to Ebirah as the Horror of the Deep, taken from the international title of its debut film, Ebirah, Horror of the Deep.
• Ebirah's battle with G-Force is a possible reference to its battle with Mutant soldiers of the Earth Defense Force in Godzilla Final Wars.
• Dr. Chiba titles Manda "the Sea Dragon," a translation of the epithet 海竜 (Kairyū) used for it in some Japanese sources.
