Medusa is a giant sea anemone monster who appears in episode 5 of the second season of Godzilla: The Series, "Freak Show."

Design

History

Godzilla: The Series

Freak Show

Medusa was a mutated anemone found on a Pacific atoll by mutant circus owner Tobias Wilson. The creature, dubbed Medusa by her captor, was put on display for the circus to enjoy. On one such show in New York City, Medusa got free by turning into a liquid form. H.E.A.T., whom was watching with Tobias, was quickly on the offensive and soon the mutant was on the rampage, draining people dry. While her victims were revived with massive amounts of water, the creature continued on, wading through military might unlike that of any other. After being forced to melt, she entered the subway system and then the water reservoir. The electric fence only made her melt yet again and she entered the city water supply, where she quickly began to grow. Godzilla arrived just in time to fight, but his atomic breath made her melt and cover him, draining him dry also. She escaped and left Godzilla for dead. She made it out to sea, but Godzilla, revived thanks to H.E.A.T. and the military, was again on the attack. He repeatedly blasted the anemone, preventing her from reshaping or even making an attempt to strike again. When Nick called him back, the Heat-Seeker quickly moved in, sucking up the liquidated Medusa with a huge modified oil skimmer used to clean up oil spills. With heated coils inside, Medusa was trapped. Whatever happened to her remains unknown.

Abilities

Absorption

By simply touching prey, Medusa can absorb the water from a victim’s body, or even water in general. The more water she absorbs, the larger she grows.

Liquid state

Due to an internal thermostat, Medusa can manipulate her form at will. When her body temperature rises, she can turn into a liquid state. When her body temperature lowers, she can return to a solid form.

Weaknesses

Medusa will automatically melt when introduced to any outside source of heat such as Godzilla's atomic breath and lasers. Godzilla was able to easily tear off one of Medusa's tentacles. After being reduced to her liquid state, Medusa was then sucked into and contained by a modified oil skimmer that was rigged with a heating unit to keep Medusa in her liquid state.
