GODZILLA
|
| |
|
"Many
years ago, Japan was terrorized by a hideous monster called Godzilla.
It destroyed villages and murdered countless numbers of people. No one
knew where it came from but they assumed that Godzilla was a creature
of prehistoric origin. As suddenly as it had come, the dinosaur returned
to the sea and disappeared, leaving a wake of death and destruction behind
it. Time passed, and Godzilla became only a half remembered legend.

"In laboratories around the world, seismographs recorded a disturbance
in the polar region. Japanese scientists sent a submarine to the area
of the disturbance. Radio contact to the mainland reported that the scientists
found high radioactivity. A subterranean explosion was recorded on the
seismograph. The submarine was never heard from again. Photographers even
went to the site of the shipwreck. They discovered the monster, Godzilla,
which had escaped from its icy exile and was making its way to the coast
of Japan.
|
|
"Military
operations were set up on the beach in an attempt to turn the monster
back or destroy it. They were not prepared for the sight of so ghastly
a creature nor were they prepared to fend it off. Bullets and tank projectiles
had no effect on Godzilla. With a mighty roar Godzilla breathed out a
flame like a gigantic blow torch which completely destroyed the military
operations.

"The
monster made its way inland, destroying everything in its path. One swipe
of its tremendous tail could completely demolish tall buildings. The earth
shook with the weight of its steps. Anything in Godzilla's way was scorched
by its flaming breath. No one could approach the beast because it was
so highly radioactive. People fled in terror. There was no human way to
stop Godzilla.

"An
enormous rumbling sound was heard. The earth began to shake with violent
tremors. Cracks appeared on the surface. The tremendous weight of Godzilla
caused the earth to split and then to open. Godzilla disappeared into
a deep crevasse. As the earthquake continued, the ground shifted again
and the crevasse closed, burying Godzilla under tons of earth and rocks.
But, was Godzilla destroyed or just thrown into suspended animation until
another earthquake rouses him from sleep?"

Similar
promotional text was used for the Longbox Series Kit #469. I
don't have a legible copy. If any one out their does, I'd love a
copy!
Like the other instruction inserts in the series, the halftone image
was a close-up of the retouched Bama
Gouaches.
Here's a small pic, I don't have another. Do you?.
