Thanks to Klen7 for pointing this out to me. It's another Yosensha picture book in their recent series where they have been highlighting a different person from the Godzilla series (Nakajima / Kawakita / Murase Keizo)

Than Man Who Continues to Draw 'Ray': Legend of Iizuka Sadao

It was apparently released on 1/8. Anyone know any more info on it? I'm a sucker for anything that has Showa King Ghidorah on the front cover

I'll head up to one of the big Kinokuniya book stores in Shinjuku this weekend and share my thoughts on it...

Here is a nice write up about Iizuka Sadao from Brett Homenick's site back from April last year:

Well, I stopped by the Kinokuniya bookstore, and if you guys thought the the GvsBiollante Hobby Japan book was "wordy", then you might want to pass on this one. In contrast to the rest of the books in these "Treasure" book series by Yosensha, this one of mostly text with photos inserted here and there. Unless you're fluent in Japanese, I would recommend passing on it...
