King of the Monsters #6
Godzilla #6
“A Monster Enslaved!”
Doug Moench and Herb Trimpe
Plot Synopsis
SHIELD’s got a new Helicarrier specially designed to take down Godzilla, and they’re all set to use it.
Rolling Commentary
That’s a great cover, by the way.
Page 3. …I don’t think I’ve ever seen Godzilla sleep before. Huh. And while the new Helicarrier is actually pretty cool, I kind of miss the classic design.
Page 5. Now, be honest, guys. As cool as a giant samurai-shaped robot to fight Godzilla is, is that really the smartest and most efficient way to deal with him?
Page 6. Woo is a little non-committal here, isn’t he? I mean, he drops the whole lusting after Tamara thing real quickly.
Page 8. Four minutes? Wow. SHIELD has amazing response time, doesn’t it? Also, that’s not really a cigar Dugan is smoking, is it?
Page 11. Seriously, now that you’ve managed to actually capture Godzilla (no small feat), what the hell are you going to do with him? Medical experiments?
Page 12. Okay, I know that Godzilla’s cage is made out of super cool space age glass, but, uh… Do you guys want to maybe fortify things a bit more? And just how much is this stuff costing the taxpayers?
Page 14. Man that kid is stupid.
Page 15. Oh shit.
Page 16. “Belches”? And I said that see-through space age glass was the wrong way to go, didn’t I?
Page 17. Well, that was a brief capture, but a capture nonetheless.
Post Mortem
It’s not surprising that Godzilla got out, of course, but I can’t help but feel a big sense of “I’ve told you so!” I mean, come on, a hastily built cage made out of super plastic? Against Godzilla. Yeah. Right. Whatever.
Still, it is kind of fun to see them try. Shouldn’t SHIELD have kept a small amount of gas pumped into the cell, so as to slowly pull Godzilla out of it rather than have him wake up all at once? You’d think the top military scientists in the world would be able to figure that one out.
And now the 12-year-old child may or may not have control over the ultimate Anti-Godzilla machine of all time. A 12-year-old. What do you know- Moench knows his anime plotlines, doesn’t he?
