Wow this was the adventure I never knew I needed.
Godzilla ha tenido poca suerte en las viñetas, oscilando entre su andadura kitsch por el universo Marvel en el período 1977-1979, opacas versiones estilo manga y aciertos puntuales como el especial que firma Arthur Adams en 1992. Por eso agrada ver el resultado de esta miniserie, donde cinco equipos creativos se turnan para registrar la presencia de la criatura a través de la historia (el Japón feudal, la Grecia mitológica, la Inglaterra de Eduardo III, las Guerras Púnicas y la prehistoria); el
Quick ReadGreat artwork for this quick read. I enjoyed the mix of Godzilla with historical events. Enjoyed the addition of other titans as well.
These are tales of Godzilla and the rest of the Toho Monsters and how they affected the people they have encountered throughout time.The stories and art work are a hit or miss.
Got this for my kids since it was free on Amazon, so Inread it too. Pretty typical kind of Godzilla story, no depth. Interesting take on having him battle across different time periods, but nothing much comes of it. Artwork was nice for the most part.
Series of comics exploring various kaiju events throughout history, going back as far as the Cretaceous era (easily the weakest issue in the volume). The balance of good to bad issues in this collection leans towards the latter, but there is still some enjoyment to be had. Feudal Japan and Ancient Greece were the stand outs for me, although perhaps not worth the price of entry. This series has however been collected with Legends and (the excellent) In Hell, in Unnatural Disasters. A much better
This collection of historical encounters with kaiju is less science fiction based and more in the style of legends. After the first story ends, we see that it is using the frame narrative with a scientist and his assistant in the present day looking back at the historical sites from each story at its close. The scientist has a theory that major events occurred because of Godzilla and related monsters. Parts of this sort of silly narrative are forgivable for being stylized, but some parts are par...
This is a fun historic look at Godzilla and friends through the ages.
Interesting storyline. However, wasn't very consistent at some points. Good to know just who might have caused some of the worlds "big" events. Artwork as always was wonderful.
3.5
Like a lot of Godzilla one-offs, these stories had no depth. It was more about setting these kaiju in historical settings. Some of them were just nonsense like the story with the knights and the plague along with Mothra or all the monsters fighting in prehistoric times before aliens show up and kill them all. At best the stories were just OK like Godzilla in feudal Japan or fighting Hannibal in the alps. Then there's the issue where Godzilla wipes out the Greek gods which reaches Mount Olympus l...
Godzilla: Rage Across Time is made up of five issues that tell various stories about Godzilla in different time periods, using a globe trotting conspiracy theorist and his assistant as a framing device. The five issues that make up this work are uneven in quality, and I think it is a disservice that the first issue is one of the best as it leaves a lot of the others feeling like a step down. Still, issues 1 and 4 (that is, Godzilla in Feudal Japan and Godzilla vs Hannibal) are standouts (both in...
2.5 stars
This is said to be the last Godzilla comic by IDW. Details on why remain a mystery to me at the moment. After the ongoing run that went from Kingdom of Monsters to History’s Greatest Monster and finally the wonderful Rulers of Earth, IDW’s Godzilla has been relegated to 5 issue miniseries treatments. Some good (Cataclysm), some middle of the road (In Hell), and some bad (Oblivion). Rage Across Time is another mini, taking Godzilla through history in five shorts that are connected only by the thi...
You know how the movie "Forrest Gump" stuck fictional Forrest within all sort of historical events? Well, here the fictional Godzilla is stuck into historical and fictional events that we are somewhat familiar with. It's fun though it doesn't rise to the quality of some of the other Godzilla books that have come out in the past few years. Worth a read if you are a fan [which I happen to be].
This was really boring, only liked one issue out of the whole collection
Last 3 tales in the book weren't as good as the first two.
Neat compilation of artistry and culture/era story lines.
