Credits
Colorist(s): ?
Letterer(s): typeset
Subject Matter
Genres: horror, science fiction
Synopsis: A lonely Konga makes his way to the Swiss Alps and while playing around, triggers an avalanche that buries him up to his neck. Not only do the locals feel sorry for him, but he gains worldwide sympathy. Bob and Sandra (his original human friends that go all the way back to his origin), come to visit him. Eventually Konga's body heat and the warm weather causes enough snow to melt where Konga is able to free himself. He eventually is escorted to a warm island off the coast of Africa.

Disclose Notes: Konga has flashbacks to his origin. This contradicts continuity because this is a second Konga that was created via a growth serum after the original died in the first issue of the series. But now he is the original Konga and that he was never killed in England by the military which is what happens in the first issue of the series (itself an adaptation of the 1961 film).
