- This page is about the Dark Horse comic series. For the Dark Horse one-shot, see Godzilla, King of the Monsters Special.
Godzilla, King of the Monsters is a comic book series by Dark Horse, published from 1995 to 1996. Beginning as an expansion of the Godzilla story published in Dark Horse Comics #10 and #11, it starred the Fantastic Four-inspired G-Force team introduced in Godzilla Color Special, with Professor Noriko Yoshiwara and Burton Helzer from Godzilla, King of the Monsters Special as supporting characters. Like Marvel Comics in the 1970s, Dark Horse was unable to license any of Toho's other kaiju, so its writers invented new monsters for Godzilla to face instead. Godzilla's appearance and behavior were patterned after his Heisei incarnation: a mysterious and destructive force of nature whose opponents sometimes represented the greater of two evils.
Low sales caused the series to end partway through a story arc, which would have featured an army of monsters created by the mad scientist Dr. Yamazaki.
