Well, the difference between Godzilla and Green Lantern is that every new incarnation is just as strong as the last one. Throughout the movies, Godzilla has grown larger, stronger, and more powerful. But with comics, one of the reasons they do reboots is to prevent the heroes and villains from growing too powerful, reboots take them back to basics. Pre Crisis Superman could destroy solar systems by sneezing, but Crisis on Infinite Earths took that power away, giving us the modern Superman who's less powerful. And true, the Corp survived the Crisis, but it took away some of their abilities, like time travel, and reistance to reality manipulation, hence why no modern Green Lantern has ever done it. Kilowog may have survived the Crisis, but if another one on the same level happened again, he'd be less likely to survive.
