Flying thunder lizards! The King of Tyrannosaurs! Man-eating giant insects! The sailors of U-184 are trapped in a world beyond all reason, and the ape-god that rules this nightmare hellscape stands on the horizon, waiting and watching as they meet hot death across his island! The jungles offer no escape, and rescue is a fleeting dream! Carnage and mayhem, illustrated by international sensation TOMASSO BIANCHI!
A great third issue that continues the story and gives us some of the most gruesome deaths we have seen to date. It will be interesting to see how the Captain and his crew cope with Kong, who is watching them very closely. Read Full Review
It's strange to title the comic book as it's been titled. There's no question that it will sell if you have the giant ape on the cover. And indeed, his presence can be felt throughout the issue, even if he's not directly there. It just seems strange to have the title character. Only if you're on the cover, the title page, and then a final splash page. This is not a King Kong comic book. Honestly... that's a good thing, what with the sort of job that Cox, Bianchi, and Devlin are managing. Read Full Review
KING KONG: THE GREAT WAR #3 leans into the shock, gore, and horror for the most terrifying depiction of Skull Island yet.

Conversely, this issue is almost all shock, horror, and atmosphere without much plot underneath. Read Full Review
This isn't the comic book that people are expecting, what with "Kong" being plastered on the cover and all. That continues to be a frustrating trend with this book, but otherwise it's been a rather thrilling and enjoyable read. Read Full Review
