The connection to humanity in only known “natural” samples only infecting humans will fit into religious ideas of humanity’s importance and something like EVAngelion idea of an origin of life.

The ability to make dead tissue animate (while still connected to a body with an inner pulp of living tissue) brings to mind primordial slime forming into the first life forms.

The sheer tenacity of fish , and their muscles frequent ability to move when dead duet to sodium can be linked to zombies by a madman. And the ocean is the cradle of life!

As in, supervillains and superheroes showed up in a city that managed to become a metropolis in the wasteland, a shining beacon from afar that is dystopian up close. Where public expression is cracked down on by the basis of “better safe than sorry”.

What was interesting is that a large number of characters were based on research created in attempts to make “scaled down kaiju humans” : the powers without the gigantism.

Creative time padding such as showing a flashback episode or episodes consisting of newsclips about some of the monsters.

Give the prank -Tor trio of Allotor, Cerator  and Collosaraptor,  a narrative role as the subordinates of Tyranta. I could see them setting off pits and other pranks they set up for eachother on intruders to the island. 

Perhaps glimpses of the Beyonders forces in short scenes similar to how Vegeta was built up showing conquering and destroying planets on the way to Earth.

I dreamed I had somehow forgot that Tyrantisterror had made a monster similar to my entry for the contest, making my idea look unoriginal.

I ...am going to be more scathing on the final chapter.than most fans probably.

But I am only harsh out of love.

The monster parts are great, and my issues with them sometimes going away on re-reading. 

But the human and reptodie parts...seem to contradict a lot of the themes and such building up. (and a conversation  on pg 244 gets repeated on 254) 

Still...that ending sticks the landing even after almost swerving off a cliff there, regaining my love with only 3 paragraphs. 

A story anthology of the “ancestors” that gave rise to the reanimation viruses that were used to create the Omega Pathogen. Could have stories taking place in hell with the demonic creators of some strains. Tales of the living dead and what happened to them in moments before they were neutralized in a way that left useful tissue when their remains found by SPOOK centuries later. Some of the last more feral living dead and their encounters with SPOOK.

A xeno-anthropology survey of items from the remains Beyonder ships 

I can't help but wonder if the KT meteor drove a few kaiju up to the survice to be caught by the Beyonders but I doubt they got many and those able to be captured would likely be unimpressive in order to be caught without expending a large fleet (the Beyonder army in Vol 2 can justify bringing their kaiju with the official records because they will be used to subjugate the kaiju created on their new Kaiju Factory Planet). Giant Jawless fish and Cambrian types.

Unlike the SAoM version where an unseen Ghidorah homage was earth-borne kaiju.
