Cosmic Monkey Comics has partnered with the Academy Theater for three great nights of Godzilla fun in July, and you’re invited! 15 bucks gets you entrance to Nicolas Cage, Roger Ebert and Adam Wingard’s fave Toho flick, and a FREE copy of our exclusive Godzilla vs Portland comic to boot!
What can we say about GODZILLA VS. HEDORAH? It’s a cult classic, and for good reason. As Criterion puts it, the film was “intended to address the crisis levels of pollution in postwar Japan. It finds the King of the Monsters fighting an alien life form that arrives on Earth and steadily grows by feeding on industrial waste. Director Yoshimitsu Banno infused the film with equal parts ecological horror, humorous monster antics, and sixties psychedelia straight out of San Francisco, making for a truly unique—and divisive—entry in the series.”
If that description isn’t enough for you crazy kids, the film finally settles all arguments about Godzilla’s flying prowess. You’ll have to see it to believe it, and you have three opportunities to do just that – July 3rd at 7PM, July 6th at 7:30PM and July 8th at 7:30PM.
NOTE. Get to the Academy EARLY so there's plenty of time to get your EXCLUSIVE comic! There's one for everyone!
And this is just the start of our partnership with the Academy, so stay tuned for more comic and film fun, courtesy of your friends at CMC.
As for the comic, get this: our exclusive cover is by legendary artists Michael and Laura Allred, and once they’re gone, they’re GONE.
Michael Allred is the Eisner Award-winning artist behind such classic graphic novel works as Madman, Silver Surfer, Red Rocket 7, and iZombie. His work on the eighth volume of the Fables graphic novel landed him on the New York Times best seller list for graphic fiction for ten weeks in a row. He has also been co-creator or substantial contributor to such seminal works as Sandman, Doom Patrol, Bug! The Adventures of Forager, Batman '66, and X-Force.
Laura Allred has colored most of Michael Allred's work for decades. In 2012 she won an Eisner Award for her work coloring iZombie and Madman after two previous nominations, for Red Rocket 7 in 1998, and Madman and Happydale in 2000. She has also produced celebrated works with other artists such as Jamie Hernandez, Joëlle Jones, Art Adams, Geoffrey Darrow, Paul Pope, and Darwin Cooke.
Rock and roll, and see ya soon!
