Gojiro by Mark Jacobson
Once a normal monitor lizard, Gojiro was transformed into a giant lizard by an atomic test after WI. Meanwhile, in an Okinawa hospital, Komodo--the world famous coma boy--reawakens for the first time since the Hiroshima blast nine years before. Together, the lizard and orphan venture forth to discover their identities in a world in which neither belongs. The story of their journey is geek love on a truly epic scale.Mark Jacobson, a contributing editor at New York Magazine, has written for publications such as the Village Voice, National Geographic, Natural History, Men's Journal, Esquire, and others. Ridley Scott's new film American Gangster was based on his New York article The Return of Super-Fly, a study of heroin kingpin Frank Lucas. 12,000 Miles in the Nick of Time, Teenage Hipster in the Modern World, Gojiro, and Everyone and No One are among Mark's works. He currently resides in Brooklyn, New York.
