Godzilla meets Evangelion in a first-press screen print by Rockin' Jelly Bean, signed by the artist and numbered 72 of 150 in pencil, kept rolled in a tube and never hung.
The Piece
Created for the Godzilla vs Evangelion collaboration, the poster sets the King of the Monsters against the world of Evangelion, with Asuka in her red plugsuit in the foreground and the tagline Giant Against Giant across the foot. Acid green, yellow and red are laid down in flat screen-printed fields, the language Rockin' Jelly Bean borrowed from 1960s American monster magazines.
Rockin' Jelly Bean is the Tokyo illustrator behind the Erostika label, celebrated for psychedelic pin-up girls, hot rods and B-movie monsters drawn with the flat, saturated colour of American lowbrow and garage poster art. First-press editions of his licensed kaiju and anime posters are the earliest and most sought impressions, and this sheet has spent its life rolled in a tube in the dark, so its colour is clean and unfaded.
