I've heard mention that King Ghidorah met up with Biollante in a manga and copied Ghidorah's form to become a plant version of the space demon. Does anybody know what manga this is from and/or give more information on it, or even a picture of some sort?
EDIT: I just realized that this is in the wrong spot, so if a mod could move it I would appreciate it.

Oh shoot, I got a picture of it on my old CPU. When I get the chance I'll send it to ya...
you know... if it starts up and all:confused:
According to G-Fan its from a comic called "Miss Kano's Humiliation" which involves Emi, Wilson and Gurenchiko to actually be aliens from Planet X

I've heard of that before, but have never seen pics myself. Were there any other kaiju that appeared in the Heisei manga but not in the films?

Bioghidorah was in THE GODZILLA COMIC STRIKES BACK: GIGANTIS THE FIRE COMIC, the second in a two volume set of short Godzilla stories by several different manga artists that was published in 1992. The variety of the stories in these comics is amazing... there are typical Godzilla tales, comedic stories (one has a giant plush Godzilla and Ghidorah fighting), violent stories, nudity, another with the Toho monsters as anthropomorphic samurai warriors... cool stuff.

Most of Toho's mecha are launched against Godzilla in Vol 1

Glad you guys liked the pics!
I bought the manga new over a decade ago so I have no idea where you could buy them now.
Most of the other monsters only show up for a panel or two in the "samurai" story, but there's Rodan, Baragon, Varan, Angilas, and King Seesar with Jet Jaguar and Biollante as villains.

The most important question about the samurai story is... were there any decapitations?! After all, you can't have a "samurai" story without the good ol' beheading! :crazy:
Bioghidorah is awesome. Wonder if Goji was able to defeat it...

They have godzilla manga books?!Yes there were. All of the ones I've known about have been the Heisei movie adaptations (I'm not sure about the Millenium films, although G2000 did get an adaptation), so this is the first non-movie Godzilla manga I've heard about.
Here's where you can read about three of them: http://www.tohokingdom.com/web_pages/grap_noves.htm
And here's a couple of pages devoted to the Godzilla vs. Destroyah manga: http://www.gvsdestoroyah.com/GalleryMg1.htm
http://www.gvsdestoroyah.com/GalleryMg2.htm
Where can u get those?The mangas are japanese made, so unless you know of a dealer that sells japanese manga imports, I would highly doubt if anyone sells these mangas over here (And no wonder. They're written in japanese!). And they're out of print as well (ok, maybe the Final Wars one MIGHT be in print, but I don't know if one has been done yet).
