GODZILLA VS. HEDORAH

“The Smog Monster Hedorah arrives in a shooting star!”

An ever evolving alien life-form arrives on a comet from the Dark Gaseous Nebula and proceeds to consume pollution. Spewing mists of sulfuric acid and corrosive sludge, neither humanity nor Godzilla may be able to defeat this toxic menace.
