Konga #7

In "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.
