God-mountain is a massive heavenly being that appears in IDW Publishing's 2015 comic book Godzilla in Hell #3. An organ-composed mountain-like deity that resides in Heaven itself, the God-Mountain sought Godzilla's allegiance as member of its forces in the the existential conflict between Heaven and Hell themselves. When its attempt to forcefully influence Godzilla into joining it failed, it sent Godzilla down into Hell, where he would reunite with SpaceGodzilla. As a second, more open attempt to sway Godzilla to its side, the God-Mountain sent its army of Angels to aide Godzilla in his fight against SpaceGodzilla and a horde of sapient demons. Assuming that it had gained Godzilla as an ally, the God-Mountain pleaded in shock as Godzilla sealed it off from Hell.
Name
The phrase "God-mountain" was used to describe the being in a tweet by Godzilla in Hell coauthor Erick Freitas.[1] Regardless, the mountain is referred to as "God" by its Angel subordinates during their fight aiding Godzilla against SpaceGodzilla and a horde of Demons.
Design
The God-mountain is an enormous mountain embedded with countless eyeballs and kaiju parts, including structures which resemble wings, fins or sails, claws and/or horns, and Anguirus' carapace. The mountain is divided up vertically by long horizontal stretches of Grecian columns and walls, making it overall similar to the multilayered Mount Purgatory from Dante's Divine Comedy. Its eyes are depicted with countless unique designs, though they share the same colors in two distinct panels. As God-Mountain scolded Godzilla, its irises and pupils were depicted as yellow with blue sclera. When it spoke to Godzilla following SpaceGodzilla's defeat, its eyes were completely dark dull green complete with black pupils. Surrounding the God-mountain is a spiral of clouds and the army of angels that it commands.
Personality
The God-mountain is devoted to what it perceives as peace, and is persistent in attempting to persuade Godzilla to "submit" to it and "serve peace." After Godzilla proceeded to kill one of its angels with a clap when it flew in front of him, the God-Mountain sent him to Hell in retaliation, declaring, "You shall learn to submit to peace!" The God-mountain persisted with its efforts even while Godzilla was in Hell; when Godzilla is confronted by SpaceGodzilla and a horde of demons, the mountain sent angels to his aid in an attempt to earn his favor. When Godzilla proceeded to seal off the portal it created to Hell, the God-Mountain desperately plead the King of the Monsters to join its side, to no avail. As shown by this, the God-Mountain displayed feelings of shock and desperation.
Origins
The God-Mountain's origins and nature are left absolutely ambiguous aside from being a powerful deity inhabiting Heaven.
History
Godzilla in Hell
After having "died" in his battle with SpaceGodzilla either in the living world or in a realm-like duplicate in Hell, Godzilla awakened to find himself in Heaven itself. Godzilla came face to face with angels baring Mothra-patterned wings and the God-mountain. The mountain expunged its influence onto Godzilla to persuade him into joining the forces of Heaven, but Godzilla proceeded to kill an angel as it flew down to him. The God-mountain angrily retaliated by sending Godzilla down to Hell where he would reunite with SpaceGodzilla. While facing SpaceGodzilla, Godzilla was surrounded by a swarm of demons that attempted to make him a part of Hell. Subsequently, the God-Mountain sent down its army of angels to aide Godzilla in defeating the Demons and SpaceGodzilla. Following Godzilla's triumph, the God-Mountain appealed to Godzilla to join its side in the existential feud between Heaven and Hell. But to the God-Mountain's surprise, Godzilla rejected it once more and proceeded close off the portal to Heaven with his atomic breath. As it was closed off, the God-Mountain pleaded Godzilla to no avail. Following its futile efforts, the status of the God-Mountain was left unknown since Godzilla had moved on deeper into Hell to face greater adversaries.
Abilities
Portal Spawning
The God-mountain possessed the power to banish Godzilla to Hell through a vortex it created underneath him. It later created a similar vortex for its army to enter Hell where it could aide Godzilla in his fight against SpaceGodzilla and a demon horde. The portals it spawned possessed purple outlines and were composed of clouds spiraling with blue electricity as they went deeper to or out of hell.
Influence Exertion
The God-mountain attempted to sway Godzilla into aligning with it and Heaven for the sake of "peace". Its influence was depicted as an expungement of glowing, rainbow-colored waves with fluid movement and white outlines. As this exertion ceases, it takes the form of faintly purplish steam.
Angel Army
The God-Mountain possesses an endless army of Angels at its disposal. The Angels composing this army are armed with swords and are capable of fighting sapient Demons as they did when aiding Godzilla.
Weaknesses
Despite its existential power, the God-Mountain was not all-powerful. As a mountain-comprised deity, it possesses no means of movement. Its influence exertion and verbal persuasion completely failed in gaining Godzilla's allegiance, resulting in the willful King of the Monsters sealing it off from Hell. The God-Mountain's status following Godzilla sealing it off from Hell is left unknown.
