Description

Godzilla Neo - THE LEGENDARY GODZILLA


Height: 100 meters

Mass: 90,000 metric tons

TYPE 2 - Warrior Class (possible God Class status, requires more study)


Bio:

In the wake of the early 20th century’s reintroduction to the concept that man is not the sole master of Earth, a secret organization, code-named MONARCH, was founded under President Truman. At first, the clandestine group was small and modestly funded, but on the day GODZILLA I was reported to United World News by Steve Martin in 1954, an emergency meeting was held between the President’s advisors and MONARCH, with the intent of bolstering resources and personnel in order to keep pace with the new forms of life crawling out of the woodwork, and if possible, remain one step ahead. It’s not exactly clear why MONARCH never officially collaborated with the JSDF or the UNGCC, outside of standard intelligence briefings and friendly expressions of international support. To the Japanese, MONARCH felt like a smaller, obligatory cousin that represented little more than a manifestation of the paranoia possessed by the world’s strongest nation that it might suffer the same monster-infested fate as its eastern ally. Little did they know that The American-based organization was on to something BIG...

In 2014, MONARCH, while struggling to maintain anonymity, also struggled to help the US military contain an outbreak of MUTO’s - Massive Unidentified Terrestrial Organisms (MONARCH’s internal terminology for kaiju), specifically the SHINOMURA species (named by Ishirō Serizawa), as the respective male and female counterparts were set on a collision course for the West Coast.

At the same time, the UNGCC recorded mass movements in the Pacific. Kaiju were practically fleeing from...SOMETHING.

A tectonic disturbance was detected in the deepest part of the Pacific, and a massive Shape was seen moving towards Honolulu. Attempts to warn the US military proved tricky thanks to the Shinomura’s EMP ability, but the Navy detected it soon enough...not that they could have done anything to stop it.

A massive, terrible shape rose from the sea and nearly annihilated Honolulu in the process. A gigantic creature, one of the largest kaiju on record, and awoken by the reemergence of its ancient enemies in the modern world.

The LEGENDARY GODZILLA had awoken.

The monster’s resemblance to the Gojirasaurus family was astonishing. Scientists scrambled to classify the creature, and near as anyone could figure, it is widely regarded as some sort of ancestral super species to the known Gojirasaurus family. This theory is further supported by MONARCH’s own records of cave murals and ancient people’s depictions of Godzilla-like petroglyphs found in dig sites around the world (though MONARCH kept this information largely to itself, under the guise of “need to know” used to justify decades of information hoarding).

These ancient recordings of Godzilla-like creatures, created far before the “birth” of Godzilla I in 1954, suggests that this monster has existed in its current state for millennia, largely unchanged since time began.

His ancient, battle-scarred body, as well as the old world’s records of the creature locked in combat with other monsters, leads scientists to believe that the LEGENDARY GODZILLA arises every few millennia to fight enemies old and new. The Shinomura, being an instinctual foe from the monster’s era (which possibly dates back to BEFORE the dinosaurs), brought the legendary beast back out of hibernation.


It is not known as of this writing how the current Godzilla will react to his ancient ancestor reappearing in the world. One thing is for sure - it could be the war of monsters to end all monster wars.


ABILITIES/ASPECTS:

  • Incredibly huge and armored body makes him nearly impervious to physical damage
  • Atomic breath
  • Old and slow body
  • Possible healing factor...most abilities still unknown


UP NEXT: Shinomura

So I guess this new Godzilla Neo season will be monsters from Legendary Godzilla (+ comics), Kong:Skull Island (+comics), Shin Godzilla and Netflix Godzilla (and maybe the Gryphon, new details and final design having emerged since your last interpretation of it)?

what is the function of the scale like spikes on this creatures back? were you thinking of that when you drew it? thats the only part of the creature that doesnt sell to me as real everything else fits right. i just cant figure out the purpose in nature for such large scale like spikes on his back. what does he use them for every day. are they there to ward off other creatures or just to look scary. i think thats the only part of the concept that isnt well thought out.

The dorsal plates on his back are a trademark to every one of Godzilla's designs.

You clearly know nothing about Godzilla if you're actually criticizing Matt for adding them.

biblecat, Godzilla has been around for fifty plus years, and his dorsal fins are part of his character design. Matt's take is based on the recent 2014 version from Legendary Pictures.

Ok, Godzilla is based off of Stegosaurus, Tyrannosaurus, and Iguanodon, he's not a real creature. Also, they are called dorsal plates or osteoderms. The only spikes that Stegosaurus had was on it's tail or thagomizer.

In Shin-Godzilla, it was explained that they are used for heat diffusion for his nuclear core. As far as Legendary's G, since he's almost entirely aquatic, it might be similar to crocodilians, as he seems very croc-like in his water movements. The various bumps and fins on it's back might help it swim. I also saw somewhere that the system of bumps on a crocodile's back create a water flow which reduces the "noise" it makes swimming, so it can ambush better. It could also use them for radiation storage, like we use fat for energy storage (especially camels, whose humps are made of fat for long treks without food), since, when he uses his breath ray, the glow originates from the back plates.

First off... its Godzilla. He Would not really fit the part without spikes on the back. (Even if it does look like the 2000 version)

Secondly, if you want to talk technicality, then here are some thoughts: 

1, protection from behind. As stated this Godzilla has a large and slow body. If a monster was to attack him from behind then it would be difficult without getting skewed or stuck.

2 camouflage. Godzilla has been known to hibernate underwater. Being a top preditor, it wouldn’t be to far fetched to think him laying at the bottom of the ocean with his back looking like underwater trenches. Perfect cover for hiding from monsters and nuclear subs (which he can eat if he chooses)

3, it’s up for interpretation. I personally do think it is for giving him that Godzilla look but hey, it could be for a lot of things. Energy chambers for his atomic breath, a sign of maturity like horns or antlers, who knows? 

But you you got to admit, it makes him look like an absolute beast!
