Trivia

• This issue marks the second official battle between Godzilla and Orochi. The two monsters first fought in a manga that was part of The Godzilla Comic Raids Again. IDW did not have to license Orochi from Toho, since the monster is a mythological figure, but Matt Frank's design for the creature was not allowed to resemble those from The Birth of Japan or Yamato Takeru.
• The Snowman from the 1955 Toho film Half Human makes a brief appearance in this issue, looking out from a cave while Akio and Gorou Suda travel to the Shobijin temple.
• A Kappa, a famous List of Kadokawa yokai# from Japanese mythology, appears along the side of a road in this issue, watching Akio and Gorou travel to the Shobijin temple.
• The M Space Hunter Nebula Aliens make an appearance in this issue. According to Chris Mowry, the Nebulans were previously planned to appear in Godzilla: Rulers of Earth, but IDW Publishing had difficulties acquiring the rights to use them from Toho, and they were replaced by the Cryogs.
