Godzilla and Marvel have recently taken different ways in the cinema. The Kaiju legend has succeeded, for example, to stage itself with blockbusters and Oscar nominations. And while fans are waiting for the next adventure, we already know that you have been looking for reinforcements from The Walking Dead for the new movie.
Meanwhile, the Marvel Cinematic Universe stumbles due to numerous flops. Accordingly, the skepticism with upcoming stripes such as Thunderbolts or the comeback of the Fantastic Four is. But what happens if these two gigantic brands collide?
Is Godzilla from Marvel?
Godzilla originally comes not from the Marvel cosmos, but the pop culture icon has already celebrated one or the other appearance in the comic books. The monstrous shape was, for example, the protagonist in “Godzilla, King of the Monsters“, a comic series from the 70s.
Last but not least, Godzilla competed against the Avengers. A duel that would certainly have the stuff to ensure record sales worldwide on the box office. Despite one or the other comic appearance of the legendary monster, there has been no Marvel film with Godzilla as an opponent.
Where the Avengers were able to launch the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Godzilla had to deal with more or less relevant movies in the west. The Hollywood strip from 1998 in particular is truly not a masterpiece in film history.
