MUTO Prime

==Summary==
MUTO Prime is a monster that appears in the 2019 Legendary Comics graphic novel, Godzilla: Aftershock.
MUTO Prime is an ancient superspecies that lived alongside Godzilla and other Titans. Monarch scientist Dr. Emma Russell theorizes that it is either the adult form of a female MUTO or the last survivor of a MUTO plague which caused a mass extinction in prehistoric times. At the same time a group of ancient Phoenicians traveled to Japan, MUTO Prime battled a member of Godzilla's species, known as Dagon by the ancients and later designated Species 5146_Adam by Monarch. MUTO Prime prevailed and infected Dagon with its parasitic spores, eventually killing it before its body became buried in an underground cavern in the Philippines. In 1999, a mining company unwittingly excavated Dagon's skeleton, allowing one of the spores to hatch into the larval male MUTO, while the other dormant spore was taken to the Yucca Mountain Nuclear Waste Repository, where it finally matured into the female MUTO in 2014.
The parent subspecies of two MUTOs which fought Godzilla in San Francisco, MUTO Prime emerged shortly after their death to draw out Godzilla. Gradually weakening him over the course of several brief encounters, MUTO Prime aimed to infect him with its parasitic larvae, potentially giving rise to an entire ecosystem of MUTOs which could wipe out the human race. Fortunately, through the intervention of Monarch's Dr. Emma Russell, Godzilla was able to triumph over MUTO Prime in their last encounter and kill it once and for all.
