☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Konga Meets the Creatures From Beyond Space," the title ape dives deep to escape destruction, only to face a giant octopus before washing ashore on a remote island—just as a fleet of alien invaders descends. These towering, carrot-skinned beings, hailing from a dying world where plant life evolved into sentient species, launch an assault on Earth with the goal of eliminating all mammals. Written by Joe Gill and illustrated by Steve Ditko, with cover art by Ditko, this 1962 Charlton issue delivers a surreal, pulpy clash of titans—Konga versus an alien race that’s as bizarre as it is menacing.
In "Konga Meets the Creatures From Beyond Space," the mighty ape emerges from the depths after surviving a barrage of depth charges, only to face a giant octopus before washing ashore on a remote tropical island. There, he encounters towering alien invaders—orange, carrot-like humanoids with massive limbs and black skull caps—whose planet is dying and who have come to Earth with a deadly mission against all mammals.
Professor Trams traces the legends of lost continents—from Plato's account of Atlantis to the mysterious ruins of the Mayan civilization in Yucatan—exploring whether these vanished worlds were fact or mere fantasy. Drawing connections between ancient texts, archaeological discoveries like the massive stone heads of Mexico and the colossal statues of Easter Island, this 1962 exploration presents tantalizing evidence that lost civilizations may have truly existed and left their mark on history.
