"Monarch Season 2 concludes with a solid victory for Kong, and with Lee Shaw splitting off from the mainstream version of Monarch and Apex. Thanks to some time travel shenanigans, the younger Lee Shaw is able to say goodbye to Keiko, which is an event his older self remembers."
"After paying off some shady associates, Lee hikes to the summit of a volcano, where a winged Kaiju, who can only be Rodan, is perched. Lee says, 'See you soon,' and the episode ends."
"Rodan is one of the all-time greats. After his first film in 1956, his legacy continues to influence the Monsterverse, making his return significant for future narratives."
Monarch Season 2 finale reveals Rodan's return, occurring two years before his appearance in Godzilla: King of Monsters. Lee Shaw's character experiences a significant moment with Keiko, suggesting no further flashbacks in Season 3. The core Monarch team is downsizing, while Old Lee continues his journey. The episode concludes with Lee encountering Rodan at a volcano, hinting at Rodan's role in future storylines. This classic kaiju's reintroduction is pivotal for the expanding Monsterverse narrative.
