Just as fans can always count on The King of the Monsters to deliver timely social commentary through destruction, so too can fans rely on the "Son of Godzilla" to be a friend to kids in need – even at summer camp.
On August 12, Minilla's back on duty in Godzilla: Monster Island Summer Camp by the Godzilla Rivals II: Vs. Battra team of writer Rosie Knight and artist Oliver Ono from IDW Publishing.
From IDW's official solicitation info:
As an aspiring cartoonist, Zelda has always dreamed of attending an art summer camp, and this year she finally gets to go! But when she arrives to Make It Summer Camp, she’s horrified to see the easels and sketchboards have been replaced with dodgeball and calisthenics. The camp is under new, suspicious management that’s turned it into an extreme sports nightmare.
Determined to salvage her summer, Zelda escapes to a secluded corner of the island. Here she can finally draw in peace. At least until she stumbles into a portal to a fantastic world!
There she makes a connection with baby kaiju Minilla and discovers the beauty of these legendary creatures. However, all is not well on Monster Island. Great evils are stirring and if Zelda can’t protect their home, the kaiju will unleash their wrath on the world.
Godzilla: Monster Island Summer Camp will run 128 pages and will retail for $12.99. Fans can preorder it now at the Godzilla Store.
