Godzilla roars back into comics!

Sensing the harm the new energy poses to the planet, Godzilla attacks the heart of the problem--humankind! It will be up to three intrepid middle-school students--with a little magic help from Infant Island--to show Godzilla that not all humans are bad... and that there is still hope for Planet Earth. Reuniting the blockbuster creative team of writer Erik Burnham, artist Dan Schoening, and colorist Luis Antonio Delgado (Ghostbusters), Godzilla: Monsters & Protectors promises to romp and stomp fans--old and new--of the greatest kaiju ever like never before!

So yeah.  Vampirella and Purgatori. Vampi, the Vampiri with a conscience and Tori, the lady-shaped creature who eats conscience. Working together? Not really.

The stakes are big enough... and sharp enough. Everybody's in... it's time to ante up.
