Following a nine-year absence from the screen, the King of the Monsters roared back with a vengeance in 1984 with THE RETURN OF GODZILLA, inaugurating a new era in the romping reptile’s mythology. The ferociously entertaining kaiju spectaculars of the 1980s and ’90s—which brought back familiar favorites like Mothra and King Ghidorah and introduced a new adversary in the genetically engineered mutant Biollante—reestablished Godzilla as a fearsome force (after previous Showa-era films that had recast himself as a benevolent protector), while taking the series’ political commentary and vaunted special effects in bold new directions.   THE RETURN OF GODZILLA,

While Godzilla fans were excited to learn of the new book, many expressed disappointment that it would only be available in Japanese. But, thankfully, that is about to change. This September, Titan Books will release an English language edition of Godzilla Great Anatomical Picture Book
