This... is incredible. Marvel (or Timely, which was what the company was called back then) created their very own kaiju PRIOR to the creation of Godzilla... BY SEVEN MONTHS! I do wonder if someone at Timely was looking at what Toho was doing, decided to one-up The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms, or it was just a kaiju-sized coincidence. Regardless, this monster is truly a testament to the popularity of giant monsters, even if it was released before the one who popularized it.
