Titanbooks UK has been putting out some great fan resources for the franchises we discuss on StarTrek.website.

This new Monsterverse Manual, scheduled for UK release on June 30, 2026 has peaked my interest.

From the promotional page:

The Titans of the Monsterverse have conquered the big screen and now, with this deluxe guide, their mysteries are revealed in full. This Monarch manual is filled with artwork and information that uncovers the secrets of the Monarch organization: employees, technology, and the Titans themselves, including Godzilla, Kong, Mothra, King Ghidorah, and many more!

Screeners for two opening episodes for season two of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (aka M:LOM or MLOM) have been shared with reviewers. These presumably are the same episodes shown at last week’s Hollywood premiere.

As with other franchises, fansites have received screeners along with entertainment media. So far, there’s enthusiasm for faster paced action. Hopefully, they won’t lose season one’s great character beats in the process.

Here’s a listing so far — please be welcome to drop additional review links in the comments. Also, please feel welcome to share your views on which fan reviewers are good, bad, toxic etc. — most of them are unfamiliar to me.

I loved Godzilla the series as a kid. I've been meaning to give it a rewatch. Don't know if it will hold up, hopefully so.

The season two premiere of Monarch: Legacy of Monsters is happening!

Beyond the usual red carpet interviews and other promotional hype, an innovative 12 minute drone show, rising about 150 metres, accompanied with a score by the show’s composer Leopold Ross, wowed those on site.
