Godzilla returns, and the world will never be the same! Giant monsters are appearing across the globe and leaving complete devastation in their wake. But who–or what–might be behind their attacks? It's up to Commander Steven Woods and his Counter-Kaiju Reaction forces to hold the monsters at bay, while young Lucy Casprell and her scientific research group, the Kaiju Watchers, attempt to find the truth behind the invasions. Collects the first 12 issues of the series.
Chris Mowry is a veteran of both the US Navy and the video game industry, having worked for Midway and Sega. For over ten years he has worked for IDW as a Senior Graphic Artist, where he has also written a number of titles. His first project, Transformers: The Reign of Starscream, led to more Transformers-related books, like Transformers: Alliance and Transformers: Defiance (which both appeared on the New York Times-bestseller list). After that, Chris, a lifelong kaiju fan, had a dream come true writing the longest-running Godzilla series in comic history, Godzilla: Rulers of Earth. He's also written for several other Godzilla series as well as other franchises like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Street Fighter.
