Tiberiu Chelcea
Godzilla's Feast
Mythological creatures are invented all the time. While in the past their stories were kept alive orally, these days we also use, among other things, comics.
The image does not refer to any story in particular. I was just trying to imagine how a creature as Godzilla could use it’s superpowers to prepare food - and it seemed like it could use its laser vision to roast something, in this case a pig. I guess, in a way, these acts of elaboration/embellishment/making small changes are the way in which a myth is both transmitted and preserved.
