  • The Devil and the Dinosaur! · 17 pages

    Godzilla and Devil Dinosaur battle against the Lizard-Warriors. They start to become overwhelmed by sheer numbers. Moon Boy runs ahead and asks the Hag of the Pits for help to get rid of the Lizard-Warriors. Moon Boy convinces Devil Dinosaur and Godzilla to lure the Lizard-Warriors to the pits. The warriors fall in and vanish. However the energy of the pits reacts with Godzilla's radiation and causes him to tear through time and space back to the present day appearing in downtown New York City just as the effects of the shrink gas finally wear off.
