“Kingorilla!”

From January 1954, this issue of Adventure Comics pits Superboy against a massive, snarling gorilla called Kingorilla in what the cover boldly promises as "Superboy vs. Kingorilla!" Win Mortimer's cover artwork captures the chaos vividly — Superboy flies in fists-first while panicked villagers and two young civilians scramble away from the enormous creature through a tropical jungle setting. It's a rousing ten-cent package from DC, with the interior story written by Bill Woolfolk and illustrated by John Sikela.
