Description

Boxer is ready to settle the score with Godzilla, and assembles his "Monster Kill Crew," a group of highly-trained weirdos, each with their own private grudge against the kaiju. As we get to know these mercenaries the team stocks up on all the equipment they'll need to take down their first bounty -- ANGUIRUS!

Plot

Boxer has assembled his task force in which he plans to fight back against the kaiju attacking the world. His force is made up of Urv, who had his wedding destroyed by Kumonga, Harrison, a mute racer who witnessed Rodan's attack in Brazil during the last issue, and Claire Plangman, Boxer's ex, who is also a military scientist. Armed with stolen military supplies (including an experimental weapon called the Headache Beam) the team heads to Edinburgh, Scotland to deal with Anguirus. But the hunter becomes the hunted when Anguirus proves to be more of a challenge then they expected.
