The genius artist Steve Ditko is a towering monster of awesomeness…and so is the character he chronicled — KONGA! If you love King Kong — and who doesn't — you'll love Konga! Konga battles dinosaurs, mole men, undersea monsters, creatures from beyond space, and the evilest threat of all — the human race! This is the complete Ditko Konga, a whopping 302-pages of giant purple ape comics, including eight pulse-pounding covers, all rendered during the height of Ditko's prowess concurrent with his Spider-Man and Dr. Strange creative explosions. Scripts are by fan-favorite writer Joe Gill. Features an Introduction by Eisner Award-winner Craig Yoe with fascinating insight into the comics and the monster movie that inspired them. Every page is lovingly restored and the book is a large format hardcover to showcase the monstrous Ditko art.
