Objectively the five greatest films ever made.
GODZILLA IN HELL
SciFi Japan reports on a new comic series from IDW. The Sabbatic Goat—realized as a muscular superhero—appears to be directing King Ghidorah against Godzilla in an Infernal Daikaiju battle beyond Dante’s vivid imaginings.
Jeff Zornow’s expert EC Comics style variant cover above is a promising teaser, and Godzilla depicter extraordinaire Bob Eggleton will be on board as well.
Looks like it will be loads of fun—we’ll be watching!From the press release:

In over six decades of battles and triumphs, Godzilla has never faced a challenge as great as what’s coming his way this July, when Godzilla goes to hell! In Godzilla in Hell, a five-issue miniseries launching in July, Godzilla will storm through the gates of hell itself, proving that the towering behemoth is King Of The Monsters both above and below!
With no warning and no sign of salvation, Godzilla is plummeted to the deepest, darkest bowels of the infernal kingdom. The mystery of what led to Godzilla’s damnation, and what it will face, will take readers on a dark and twisted journey unlike any Godzilla story before!Click on the image above or on this link to read more on SciFi Japan.

The amazing Jo Walton has written a series of sonnets about Godzilla, and it’s pretty much the best thing ever:
Godzilla Vs Shakespeare
Up on the ramparts all await their time
Each heroine, the fools and knaves, each king,
Ready to catch our hearts, the play’s the thing
A cockpit where they arm themselves with rhyme.The monster tries to hide, but shows through plain,
Behind a frond ripped up with giant claws
We see his scaly hide and gaping jaws
As Birnam tropics come to Dunsinane.All rally to defend now, each with each,
Juliet with dagger, Richard on a horse,
Dear Hamlet with his poisoned foil of course,
Harry with swords and longbows, at the breach.Godzilla, shuffling closer, knows what’s what.
Size matters. But then so do prose and plot.– Petra
