KAIJU REVIEW - THE JOURNAL OF JAPANESE MONSTER CULTURE
Zine Week Part 5

This one had a fairly high page count for a zine. The two issues I have on hand are 40 and 64 pages. There was plenty of coverage of Godzilla and Gamera, but it was the articles and pictures of lesser-known kaiju films and TV shows that set this one apart. Publisher Dan Reed and his contributors really knew what they were talking about. Everyone knows Ultraman, but this is where I first learned about Ultraman Taro, Ultraman Leo, and the other Ultraman spin-offs. The likes of Kamen Rider and Jinzoningen Kikaida were also covered. There was some really cool fan art too. Check out Keith Aiken's interpretation of King Kong Vs. Godzilla below.
