'Godzilla: Half-Century War' Announced by IDW

Another day another set of news involving IDW comics and Godzilla!

Adding to their solid base of Godzilla comics, in August IDW will release another new Godzilla series, this one titled "Godzilla: Half-Century War".

Comicsalliance.com has a great article featuring more details, which will contain the writing/drawing work of James Stokoe!

Here's what IDW had to say on this release:

"Introducing a new and exciting look at Godzilla's reign of destruction, courtesy of Orc Stain creator James Stokoe! The year is 1954 and Lieutnant Ota Murakami is on hand when Godzilla makes first landfall in Japan. Along with his pal Kentaro, Ota makes a desperate gamble to save lives... and in the process begins an obsession with the King of the Monsters that lasts fifty years! Don't miss the first decade in a tale of a lifetime!"

So it looks to be a flashback story of sorts that culminates to the present...sounds great!

And what I love best is that from the looks of it we'll FINALLY have a Godzilla series that will feature ultra-detailed artwork.

Just look at the preview page shown here! You could spend hours looking at that fine detail.

I can't wait until this comic comes out in August.
