Godzilla (Marvel comic)
Template:Infobox Marvel Series/KotM Godzilla, King of the Monsters is a comic book series by Marvel Comics.
Information
This series described the adventures and confrontations of Godzilla while he wandered in various regions of the United States, from Alaska to New York City.
The series told original stories and attempted to both fit into the official Toho continuity and avoid referencing it too directly. It also integrated Godzilla into the Marvel Universe, making use of many of its main regular characters such as the Avengers. It was published from 1977 to 1979, neatly fitting between the Showa era and the Heisei era.
The general situations of the series were fairly similar to those of the Showa era movies, but other than Godzilla himself all characters were new creations. Likewise, the JSDF are absent but S.H.I.E.L.D. pretty much fills its role in the story.
Issues
