Konga escapes the nuclear destruction of his island in the previous issue by diving into the Ocean.

Soon a hunter arrives and captures Konga and sells him to a showman as the radiation wears off and Konga grows giant again. After being exhibited around the world as an attraction, he escapes, runs amok through London and is presumed destroyed by an aircraft bombardment of depth charges.
