Is that an age appropriate toy?

Hello Baby Sky Deviler

The late, great Sky Deviler has passed on to the great space buffet in the sky, but his legacy lives on thanks to the creature known only as Baby Sky Deviler. Hatched from an egg snatched from the thatch in the Scottish battlefield where Deviler died, Baby Sky Deviler has been prophesized to become the most powerful Kaiju ever, so it's no surprise that the evil Dr. Cube tried to pull an Angelina Jolie and adopt the little blue beast. Cube's fiendish familial plans were thwarted at Kaiju Big Battel: The TV Pilot however, when he fell to Kaiju Champion Kung-Fu Chicken Noodle, who subsequently took the one-eyed Space toddler under his wing.

You can read all about the baby's journey from death-bed hatching to Soup protégé in the new Kaiju bio, Hello Baby Sky Deviler.

Kaiju at Anime Boston and A.P.E. This Weekend

This weekend, Kaiju Big Battel is invading cons on opposite American coasts. On the Eastern side of the country, Louden Noxious, Beav and other Kaiju luminaries will be hosting panels, signing autographs at the Kaiju field mall in the dealers' room, harassing cos-players, and generally having a good time at Anime Boston. Mark your AB calendars - the Kaiju press conference (AKA panel) will go down at 1pm on Sunday (4/22)in panel room 306.

On the West Coast, Kaiju representatives will simultaneously bring the Big Battel to the Alternative Press Expo (A.P.E.) in San Francisco and party with the art stars at Gallery 1988 SF on Saturday night (4/21) as part of the opening night for The Indie, an art show celebrating alternative press artists.

At both events, the Kaiju booth will feature a brand new con-exclusive Kaiju 2007 Super Deform print by Vinnie Arnone featuring the entire Kaiju roster!

Kaiju Imposters Go Web 2.0

Longtime Kaiju Big Battel imposters Jaiku Large War have apparently abandoned their plot to impersonate the world's foremost monster fighto organization, and moved into a field with much less Danger - Web 2.0. Originally begun as a propaganda tool to hide the existence of real, city-crushing monsters, Jaiku Large War once featured a cast of fake Kaiju such as Surgeon Square-face, Golden Russet, and Won Ton Can. Now, in the face of overwhelming evidence of the existence and overall realitude of Kaiju monsters, it appears that they have abandoned false propagandizing and found a new, more lucrative business model - making a website and hoping that Google will buy it.

Sea Amigos and Apes of Wraths Enter Arbitration

At Kaiju Big Battel: The TV Pilot, the new Double Danger Tag Team Tandem Belt Battel ended in controversy when both D.W. Cycloptopuss III and Hell Monkey each grabbed one of the Belts from atop their Battel poles at exactly the same time. While this seemed to signal the birth of a new tag team, Hell Monkey and The Grudyin were having none of it and beat the sea-dwelling Kaiju mercilessly and stalked out of the Big Ring with both belts. Ever since, the Sea Amigos have been petitioning the Kaiju Commissioner to invalidate the Battel results and put the Tandem Belts around Unibouzu and D.W.'s barnacle-encrusted waists. The Apes have countered with their own proposal - they keep the belts, and the Sea Amigos keep their gills shut.

In an effort to reach a peaceful settlement of the conflict, the Commissioner arranged this past week to have the disagreement settled through a formal arbitration process. After Jimmy Carter, Boutros Boutros-Ghali, and Monty Hall all turned down an invitation to mediate, the Commish settled on a team from the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators. Unfortuntately ten minutes into the first mediation session, The Grudyin ate the entire team. Surprisingly, a new team of mediators has yet to step forward.

Question of the Week

Who is going to win the flavor fighto?

Thank You Jingi!

Referee Jingi is an icon of justice worldwide, and this wekeend the Kaiju Commissioner will honor this paragon of policing, by throwing a banquet celebrating Kaiju's senior official's "years of faithful and fair services." During the banquet, Jingi will feast on his favorite foods including saltines, milk, and justice soup, and will be awarded the prestigious Golden Whistle of Virtue for Lifetime Achievement. Jingi will be the youngest Referee to ever receive the accolade, and the first since Lord Horatio T. Whisteblower was posthumously given the award after the London Tower Battel of 1903, where he attempted to deny Corporal Chaos the use of his Tenty-Sided Dienator.

Everyone who's Anyone/Anything in the Big Battel will be in attendance at the banquet. Even some of Kaiju's most evil, anti-justice types, including Dr. Cube and Mota Naru, will set aside their differences for one evening to honor Kaiju's enforcer of justice. Hopefully the green-skinned terror known only as Hulking Jingi will not make an appearance at the event, but ever since Referee Jingi's enrollment in anger management classes he hasn't been seen anyway.
