Initial thoughts on the previews:
- Awesome to finally see Baragon...I especially like his destruction of the Triumph de Arc in Paris...nice little nod to DAM and he finally fulfills the role that was always intended for him. I really hope we'll see Gorosaurus on a similar appearance soon...would love to see him take Kiryu out of commission with his kangaroo kick
- Nice to see his fire beam brought back as well, an aspect of Baragon that was sorely missed in GMK.
- Yay, another appearance by Kiryu...zzzzz....zzzzz....
I'm pretty much sick to death of MG at this point, regardless of whatever incarnation they use. MG has basically been in every single damn IDW series in the same exact role...for the new mini, they should employ a "no MG" clause (unless it's Showa MG). Nevertheless, his battle with Baragon seems very exciting...let's hope they expand this role (kaiju-capturing for Monster Island) to include Mogera and JJ to keep things fresh instead of always automatically reverting to MG/Kiryu in these scenarios.
Overall, looks like another fun issue to look forward to...
