Scott's Take: Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong by Brian Buccellato, illustrator Christian Duce, and illustrator Tom Derenick


Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong by Brian Buccellato, illustrator Christian Duce, and illustrator Tom Derenick, features Lex Luthor and the Legion of Doom having the brilliant idea to use Godzilla, Kong, and others to destroy the Justice League. Despite the fact they know they can’t control them; Lex and friends unleash the Titans upon the world. That means it is time for the Justice League to save the world again.

 

Most of the main Justice League heroes are involved except for the Martian Manhunter. I guess having the team communicate telepathically around would have made things too easy and he could calm them down. Also, most of the magic users are notably absent. Probably so none of the magic characters can use magic to make things better.

 

Supergirl is a main member of the team for story reasons. Personally, I highly enjoyed how big of a role she played in this tale. Shazam is hit with the immature stick to help justify certain events and some events are rushed. There are some events that don’t have an impact like one would expect. The art is brilliant and no side of the crossover is valued more than another.

 

Overall, this is a fun crossover that I highly enjoyed. If you want to see Superman and Godzilla throwing down, then this is the book for you.
