Exactly how powerful is the comics version of Godzilla?
So I've been reading a load of Godzilla comics, old and new, over the last few days because I got all nerd excited from seeing the trailer for the new film.
Basically it got me wondering exactly how powerful people think of Godzilla as he is portrayed in the comics?
Is he elite top tier, a peer to guys like Thor, Hulk, Superman or whoever, but just really, really big?
Is he less powerful than them, but just really, really big and so awkward to deal with?
Or is he more of a threat, more like a Kurse or maybe even a Mangog, untouchable by the conventional attacks of the top tier?
Or is it more like a middle-ground thing - he isn't necessarily above or even equal to elite top tiers overall, but he has certain outstanding attributes that make him a major threat? e.g. ridiculous durability
Thoughts please!
I'm going to follow this post with a quick scan-heavy recap of each iteration of comics Godzilla that you may or may not want to read/enjoy. There are three versions, with the latest (published by IDW) easily the most impressive.
Cheers.
