Versus: Godzilla: The Half-Century War

Posted by & filed under Versus.


A while back, Orc Stain artist James Stokoe created a concept piece titled World War G. In it, Godzilla trashes Tokyo.

This concept piece led to Stokoe’s new official Godzilla comic, Godzilla: The Half-Century War.  Here’s a seven-page preview of the first issue. The Half-Century War arrives in stores next Wednesday, August 8.  Here’s the plot synopsis:

Godzilla: The Half-Century War #1 (of 5)

The year is 1954 and Lieutnant Ota Murakami is on hand when Godzilla makes first landfall in Japan. Along with his pal Kentaro, Ota makes a desperate gamble to save lives… and in the process begins an obsession with the King of the Monsters that lasts fifty years! Don’t miss the first decade in a tale of a lifetime!
