How did Godzilla come back?


So this obviously relates to the original Godzilla with the reprisal of Steve Martin's character. Is it the same Godzilla who (ret-conned) survived the Oxygen Destroyer or is it supposed to be a different Godzilla? Thanks in advance.

Do you smell what Barack is cooking?

Only in the inferior U.S. version is it hinted that this Godzilla is the first Godzilla that somehow survived being distingrated (even though the audience plainly saw it) in the first film. In the spectacular Japanese version, it is not said directly, but it is a second Godzilla awakened by a large-scale volcanic eruption.

Either a totally new Godzilla, or you'll just have to assume Regenerator G1 brought him back. (see GODZILLA 2000)

It was a new Godzilla. The first one was a creature awakened by H-Bomb testing in the ocean. The second Godzilla was a surviving dinosaur from Lagos Island that was mutated by an A-Bomb test happening at the same time. It was in hibernation though and then awakened by a volcano eruption in 1984.
