The MonsterVerse Expands
By Ashley Samuel
With Kong Skull Island racking up serious dollar at the international box office, it will come as no surprise to learn that Legendary Pictures are releasing a tie-in comic book! The 4-part saga will further lay the groundwork for the MonsterVerse that Legendary is setting up with King Kong and Godzilla headlining a slate of upcoming monster blockbusters. Check out two teaser images and a synopsis below.
The series will act as both a sequel and a prequel to the film and tells the story of a secret team of Monarch operatives set on discovering the truth behind Kong and the island he is born to protect. The team returns to Skull Island and unlocks an ancient history of monster conflict. They bear witness to catastrophic battles between Kong and the island's primal and deadly creatures and finally discover how Kong became the last of his kind.
