Godzilla Takes Down the US, City by City, in ‘Godzilla vs. America’ Comic | Exclusive

Godzilla has long represented Japan, with the creature often being seen as a post-World War II nationalist response to the devastation of the war and the effects of the nuclear bomb. But new anthology comic series “Godzilla vs. America” is one of the more direct attacks Godzilla has made on another country, specifically going after the United States and taking it down city by city, with each issue focused on a different locale.

The first issue is “Godzilla vs. Chicago,” with four stories featuring the Windy City facing the wind of Godzilla’s atomic breath.

“The L train experiences its worst delays yet, Godzilla interrupts a major sporting event and a new Chicago-based superhero reaches the end of her rope,” the book’s official solicitation teases.
