Description
While my wife and I were watching the original 1954 Gojira this past weekend, I remembered how freaked out I was as a liitle bugger when Gojira is liquified and skeletonized by the Oxygen Destroyer. Seeing the mighty beast reduced to a skeletal frame before finally dissolving completely was a sad, yet exciting thing. I also watched the "direct sequel" Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla and was surprised to see that according to the new canon, Gojira's skeleton did not in fact dissolve, but lay at the bottom of Tokyo Bay until retrieved by a sceintific team. In keeping with my new resolution to get back to be more artistic, here's my effort at a direct comparison between the skulls of the mighty Gojira and the infamous Tyrannosaurus rex. Gojira has an intersting mix of crocodylian and canine characteristics indicating that if indeed, he is a theropod dinosaur, he represents a lineage that strongly parallels crocodylians.
