The alien invasion commences. As Earth’s forces rally with new weapons to fight the kaiju invasions, the mighty monsters wreak havoc on everything from aircraft carriers to comic book conventions. While Godzilla is once again noticeably absent from most of this book, we do get the Destoroyah larva scuttling about in search of the leg part from Zilla.

Where the previous issue showed improvement, this book falls right back into typical IDW Godzilla format with an abundance of talking and a lack of monster fighting.

I was impressed by two noticeable cameos in this issue. However, their appearances could not make up for Godzilla also making only a cameo appearance in his own book.

This is frustrating.
