Graphic full-colour illustrations of the most notable kaiju are featured in Killer Kaiju Monsters , along with descriptions of their strengths, weaknesses and special powers. Also featured are the heroes and heroines who prevented kaiju attacks, the creators who designed these breathtaking beasts, and a breakdown of the central, defining plot and story structures of kaiju dramas and battle sequences. A kaiju research section that assembles data, charts, and figures - valuable scientific findings that will aid in the battle to save humankind is included, and artist Mark Nagata will render cross-sections of a kaiju to show the skeletal and muscular construction of these monsters. (These cross sections will be printed on vellum as a special feature to the book to recreate the anatomy drawings found in an encyclopedia.)
