Ever thought of taking a trip to Japan to see the locations used in giant monster movies but need to know what they are and how to get there? Well, we're about to remedy that quandary. The G-FAN Travel Guide To Kaiju Japan has been over a year in the making (by J. D. Lees and myself) and we are now in the proofing process.

It will contain info on what the location is, what movie(s) it was featured in, how to get there, what other attractions are nearby, where to stay and general information on Japan itself.

Even if you're not planning to ever visit Japan, the Guide will be a fun read!

G-FAN Travel Guide To Kaiju Japan: Making Progress
 
Many people became interested in Japan and Japanese culture from watching Japanese science-fiction and fantasy movies.

Now can have the best of both worlds: Japanese culture and see where Godzilla and Gamera stomped.

Not to interrupt your train of thought here..., but shouldn't your location be something like godzilla-land/urutora-land, instead of Tarzana?

Godzilla was spotted in Maine recently !!

He found out the Bull Moose store in Scarborough was selling his new comic book and squashed it.

That's the new comic book series that started in the U.S.

I've a few of the Dark Horse Godzilla comics, but never really got into them as "must reads."
