"This was a request from one of the administrators on the Godzilla 2014 blog website. I actually never saw the footage from the most recent SDCC, showing the "Airport scene" but I wanted to try and make a comic based off accounts, recreations, and my own thoughts on what would go down :P Hope ya'll enjoy! Again, just fan-made, not official, my own thoughts on that scene." If you look closely at the part where a Muto is right over a passenger plane and Godzilla's foot is in the scene right nearby, we can get a sense of Godzilla's size. Since this was created from accounts that people who actually saw the trailer, I feel somewhat confident in making a size estimation on the Muto. Remember this probably wouldn't be 100% accurate, but would be close. The typical passenger plane (especially that big one pictured) is a 747 class plane. They are 250' long, and the Muto seems to be just as tall as that 747's length! So if the Muto is 250' tall, then our Godzilla is MASSIVE! Granted, this is a 'guesstimate', but makes Final Wars Gojira wimpy if this is true doesn't it?

I may have...slightly exaggerated Godzilla's size in this one, but for the better I think :)

Might I say you did SUPERB with this comic! I give it an A++ :) I can imagine it would be tricky to capture Godzilla's size from that scene, so some size scaling is to be expected.... but yes it does give that "I am about to NUKE you" feeling ;) Still, based on this io9 article of that trailer ( http://io9.com/we-saw-a-glimpse-of-godzilla-you-wont-believe-the-siz-851082801 ), your size depiction of just the Muto feels close. To dwarf a Muto that big, it would need to be pretty darn big (I can see the Final Wars Gojira being frightened about facing our Godzilla in a new American-vs-Japanese Godzilla fight ;) )

I like it, although the color, while very close, is a bit off. And the neck sorta doesnt match the new design. But its great, it really is. But i have a feeling the MUTO woulod be atleast a bit bigger...Oh well, its still really awesome.

That Muto must've thought,"Wow. I'm screwed."

@THEGMAN123, Hahaha, I hadn't thought of that; good one! Maybe it's thinking "Don't move! It can't see me if I don't move!"

The problems with your size theory are quite profound my friend. Problem Number One: The size of the Muto If you looked more closely at the picture and compared the Muto to the size of the tanks nearby firing at Godzilla in the second to last image, most good sized tanks are only about 10' tall. The Muto is about two to three times the size of the tanks, making it only about 25' - 35' tall at best. You're off by a minimum factor of ten in your estimate of its height. Problem Numer Two: The airplane. The airplane in the picture cannot be confirmed as a 747 by any standard given how small it is, especially when it is compared (again) to the tanks nearby. Either this artist has no idea of the concept of proper scale, or they meant for the Muto to be tiny. Problem Number Three: The airport building. It's only four stories tall when you look at it in the last image, and the Muto doesn't even reach the top of it. A four story building is about 40' tall, giving further discredit to your estimate of its height. Problem Number Four: Godzilla himself. Again, this artist is good but he doesn't look like he has a solid grasp of scale yet. If that building is in fact four stories tall and 40', Godzilla is only about three to four times the size of it. Godzilla would then therefore only be about 120' - 160' tall according to this little comic strip. We all know perfectly well that this Godzilla is going to be "the tallest Godzilla ever" according to Gareth Edwards, so this comic is unreliable for size estimations. Again, you need to examine with a critical eye and remember that this is NOT OFFICIAL! It says so in the description given by the author that it's not official, yet you seem to think that it makes perfect sense to base an estimate of Godzilla's size off of it… Why? I don't want to call you stupid, but there's really no better word for it. It's a nice piece of artwork, but as an unofficial sketch intended for entertainment only this is not something you can base estimations or theories of the actual movie on. Think. It's not illegal yet.

Error #1: The tank could easily have been oversized to allow readers to actually tell what they were. Error #2: From the first panel alone, the look and style of the plane tells us its NOT a small personal plane but one of the very large passenger planes like the 747. I will admit that the building and the various panels do show an inconsistent size for Godzilla, other than that its more massive that the Muto. Remember, all who had seen this trailer for real reported the Muto was more massive than a human. 23' tall would be theropod dino sized, which is big but not "MASSIVE". They also reported the Muto was dwarfed by Godzilla.
