“ATTN: MONARCH AGENTS AND RESEARCHERS

Attached for immediate review are The Monarch Files: a comprehensive, vital, and highly sensitive dossier on notable monsters, Titans, and Massive Unidentified Terrestrial Organisms (M.U.T.O.s). You will find up-to-date behavioral profiles, physiological analyses, and capability assessments.

Also contained within are field reports detailing operatives’ encounters with M.U.T.O.s. It is expected that every Monarch employee study these accounts with diligence.

Note: High-resolution photographs are included where possible, but artist approximations have been substituted in for cases when mission photographers did not return from their field surveys.

All information contained herein on employees, technology, and geographical locations is confidential, for Monarch employees with B-grade clearance or greater. DO NOT DISSEMINATE.”

FROM THE MONARCH VAULT: The first, and only, official guide on the Titans of the Monsterverse!

GORGEOUS ART: Hi-res imagery and gorgeous artwork make this a must-have coffee table book.

COMPLETE YOUR COLLECTION: This book joins Insight’s Monsterverse line, which includes The Art of Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, Godzilla vs. Kong: One Will Fall, and Godzilla: The Art of Destruction.
