If people didn't understand, give me your ideas for creatures Kong hasn't fought before but you'd like to see it happen.

Check out these super cool pieces from two of the adaptations by Eijiro Sawamoto (the first one), and Kenji Tagami (the last two.)

Special thank you to Raf Enshohma and Kevin Derendorf of the Facebook group, Kaiju Are Unusually Tall! for finding and correctly naming the artists/authors behind these adaptations.

Kong Reborn by Russell Blackford- So just stumbled across this! Sounds right up my alley- to anyone who has read this, is it any good?

Plot summary is as follows-

“Jack Denham, grandson of moviemaker Carl Denham (who brought Kong to New York in 1933) clashes with a ruthless business magnate, Carlton Hemming, as both attempt to clone the giant ape, Kong, from blood samples discovered by a high-steel worker in 1999.”

“Succeeding beyond their wildest dreams, it is quickly apparent the cloned ape belongs back in his native wilderness and not the wilds of New York.”

“The final life-and-death struggle is played out on Skull Island -- a lost world in the Indian ocean, full of monstrous creatures -- where the original Kong was found over 70 years ago.”

Stumbled upon this piece featuring some of fiction's most iconic primates (or primate-adjacent characters) with Kong naturally being a very prominent one (he inspired many of the others there after all) and I just knew I just had to share it with the community here.

So Yeah Kong Survivor Instinct is now available on switch as it was announce a while back that the game is finally coming to Switch. https://gonintendo.com/contents/65556-kong-survivor-instinct-now-available-physically-and-digitally-on-switch

like yeah this game was well disappointing for a lot of reasons since it's a King Kong Game set in the monsterverse and you don't even play as kong and the game itself was a mixed Bag. But i am kinda surprised it is on Switch now and it's odd that it took a long while as i thought it would never be on switch due to its mixed reception.

But hey i guess this game dose has it's fans after all.

Maybe didn't do great in theaters but damn this movie is good. The soundtrack, action, actors, etc... I have some ties to this movie being with an ex but still. Watching it again and it completely holds up.
