      Yes, they did. Maybe that's what they need these days; more giant ape stories!

          My question is... who to believe? The flyer says hes the world's largest ape, but supergirl seems to think he's ALMOST as big as King Kong. What? If she had said he was as big as King Kong, would they have gotten sued?

            Sweet Jebus, why didn't this guys show up in the current Animal Man series or the Vertigo run? He's practically got Grant Morrison tattooed on him.

                      I'm guessing it's because he's looks too much like Hank McCoy? At least I think he does. And I'm sure there are a few Disney lawyers who do as well.

                        >EVERYTHING is better with apes/monkeys.

                        My buddy Chad provides proof: Picture the footage of the Hindenberg going down. Terrible tragedy, very sad. Now; picture that footage with shots of a monkey in a Captain's hat flailing around at a control panel interdispersed throughout. Instant funny.

                        >why didn't this guys show up in the current Animal Man series

                        That's kind of an... er.... awkward grip he's got on A-Man....

                        >I'm guessing it's because he's looks too much like Hank McCoy?

                        Say! Good point; but when has that ever stopped Marvel or DC before?

                          ^Because Marvel didn't have Disney lawyers in their corner before. Not sure how good Time Warners lawyers are but I wouldn't want to go up against Disney's.
