From Legendary and Warner Bros., Godzilla returns to the big screen...and also the comic book page. Legendary Comics proudly presents the official Godzilla prequel graphic novel! Delve into an incredible mystery, generations in the making. At the dawn of the atomic age, humanity awakens lifeforms beyond imagination, unleashing monumental forces of nature. Written by Max Borenstein (screewnwriter of the new Godzilla ) and Greg Borenstein, illustrated by Eric Battle, Yvel Guichet, Alan Quah and featuring cover art by Arthur Adams, Godzilla: Awakening is the official graphic novel based on the new movie from Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures, and reveals an explosive, larger-than-life adventure set decades before the film. Review: A must for the Kindle HDX - T-minus 3 days until the movie opens... do you want to read this? Yes. Is it necessary? Probably not, but (as a prequel) it seems to lay out the background of this new G universe quite nicely (and I did love this backstory). Is it full of spoilers? Haven't seen the movie yet, only the trailers; but as far as I can tell, there was nothing in Godzilla Awakening that would spoil anything in the movie itself, other than (possibly?) the character and nature of Godzilla itself. Beyond all that: looks awesome on the HDX (8.9"), some really beautiful pages and their corresponding pencil and ink sketches in the back, and an entertaining story that, like the movie itself, has a few great nods to the 1954 original. Highly recommended. Review: Good for history of mv Godzilla - It is great for readers who wanna know about the history about our kiaju and how it was awaken it is quite interesting ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,847,673 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #2,653 in DC Comics & Graphic Novels #3,523 in Media Tie-In Graphic Novels #4,050 in Fantasy Graphic Novels (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 848 Reviews | ## Images ![Godzilla: Awakening (Legendary Comics) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/A1u6qJyBXkL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must for the Kindle HDX *by R***N on May 14, 2014* T-minus 3 days until the movie opens... do you want to read this?

It deals with the backstory of Dr. Ishiro Serizawa's search for the titular monster, but the comic actually stars his father, who's the one who started said search. The story depicts Serizawa finding out about the existence of monsters and being recruited into the US army, as advisor on how to find and destroy the monsters. At some point, he starts hearing rumors and finding imagery that depict a monster that he's never encountered, but some natives call "Gojira", convinced he's a mythological creature whose purpose is to fight the other monsters in order to restore balance to the world. The structure of the story is actually quite similar to that of the film, including the fact that we see most of Godzilla from the eyes of the humans, and his presence is very lite. There is another monster in the story, but it's never named (well, except for the general moniker of MUTO, but it's not the same monster from the film). The problem is that there is too little story and it's unnecessarily stretched. There's also the question of the art, which while it's very good, it gets confusing at times due to the decision of including special shots detailing scenes that will happen later in the middle of the story. Now, it's common in comic compilations to do this: they include the cover art for the issue in question before each chapter, and that cover art usually depicts a scene that will happen later. But this is not the case here. This is not a compilation, it's a standalone issue divided in chapters. Furthermore, the "cover" art for each of these shots is done by the same artist that draws each chapter, which means you will mistake those "cover" pages as a sequential part of the story, instead of just a depiction of what will happen later. It gets confusing, because the art is not labeled in any different way. Had they just inserted pencil art or put a "Chapter X" on top of the art, it would be better. In any case, it's a neat story. It's not required to understand the film, and it's certainly nothing that will blow your mind, but it's a nice add-on. There are a couple of extra pages at the end, with the authors talking about making this comic and detailing some pencil art. The cover of the comic is gorgeous, though done by a different artist from the other three who make the art from the book, and the hardcover edition makes for a wonderful collector's item. I say, for the actual price it's worth it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/7496153-godzilla-awakening-legendary-comics](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/7496153-godzilla-awakening-legendary-comics) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-05*
