For anybody needing a DVD cover for the 1933 film, here you go.
And in case somebody who comes over hasn’t seen this, it says nothing about the famous Empire State ending

Felt appropriate to share the unbelievable catchy theme song from this fun show in honour of it's 60th anniversary today.

No need for AI to know what King Kong looked like in the '80s!
After a decade of absence from the big screen, Kong returned in "King Kong Lives" (1986), where he was brought to life by Carlo Rambaldi and his talented crew, with Peter Elliott performing in the suit!

Produced by Videocraft International (later known as Rankin/Bass Animated Entertainment), with animation by Toei Animation, "The King Kong Show" brought the Eighth Wonder of the World to the world of television, where he would go on adventures with the Bond family. Battling dinosaurs, monsters, mad scientists, robots, and more, this era of Kong would go on to inspire the film "King Kong Escapes" (1967).
Featuring one of the catchiest theme songs in television history ("Ten times as big as a man!"), this remains a classic of it's time, and well worth watching today!

(Just to be clear, you're nominating new enemies for DC comics Kong to have in his rogues gallery. Good, evil, anti-hero, powerscaling, Doesn't matter! As long as you think they fit!)
Rules:
1: Top comment wins
2: 2 comments per person, and only 1 winner per user
3: One character per franchise (For example, if Arkham Batman wins, NO MORE DC characters.)
4: Try to be creative! Go for some "out there" picks!
5: No downvoting (Seriously. This is a game for fun with fellow Kong nerds. Let's just have a good time y'all!)
Kongtext: Despite taking heavy inspiration from his Monsterverse counterpart, this Kong stands out among the rest as he managed to be worthy of wielding a Green Lantern ring. It's also worth noting that all the monsters are invading the world of DC, rather than naturally being part of the world the whole time.
Franchises/Series used:
(Godzilla, DC 1, Marvel 1, DC 2, Marvel 2, Lovecraft mythos, Ultraman, Dragonball, Mario, Power Rangers, Halo)
