My Rating
Bring On The Bombu!
Two Hundred and seventy-five, that was the last tally. The number was impressive for such a conqueror as Bombu. His leaders approved, but… What of the human planet? Earth, they called it? Why has Bombu failed to subjugate this world?
It started so beautifully. Bombu landed in the human’s biggest city. He demanded total, unconditional surrender. Bombu even threatened the use of the Wallah Wallah Bing Bang and the Ting Tang. Then the human force called the N.Y.P.D. subjugated Bombu with something called a “taser”.
Can Bombu survive the human prison called “county lockup”? What is the powers call “Littering”, “Resisting”, and “Obstruction”? Why does this planet pelt Bombu with garbage?
The Return Of Monstrollo, The Terror Of Hollywood
Charles Hudson was once the biggest movie producer in Hollywood. His Monstrollo films alone made him a household name. Now, thanks to a former friend and competing loudmouth producer, the tabloid rags began printing his personal conversations. They all laughed and called him a fool. How could a robot prop gorilla stop an alien invasion?
Now poor Charles has lost his company, his contacts within the industry, and his girlfriend won’t talk to him. On top of this life change, the producer who betrayed him, one Roger Cashman, has stolen his big comeback script. Can things get any worse?
Who are the little blue men with the high tech energy guns? Why are they offering to help Charles exact revenge? Does Monstrollo have stylish Haggar slacks and a tiny little pony-nub?

Reviewer Notes
This Marvel Monsters title is awesome from start to finish. What can I say other than “wow”. This book was released in December 2005 with three others just like it. All the classic Marvel Monsters find their way back in this run. I’ve read the Fin Fang Four issue as well. There are some comedy gems in here as well as the Fin Fang Four issue.
Poor Bombu, his intergalactic domination was ruined by the N.Y.P.D. and their pesky tasers. Manoo comes in second place. I guess the Skrull have some shape shifting competition! Where do Monsters Dwell? On the five star rating list. I recommend these books if you need a good laugh.
The 2005 books in the list:
- Where Monsters Dwell
- Fin Fang Four
- Monsters On The Prowl
- Devil Dinosaur
