King Kong is a giant gorilla-like creature who first appears in The Beast with a Billion Backs. He uses a walker, wears a hearing aid, carries a skeleton of a woman (supposedly Ann Darrow) and is very elderly. He is supposedly an ally of humanity, but according to Richard Nixon, he is too old to help stop tentacles from reaching Earth.

Trivia
- In The Beast with a Billion Backs, the skeleton King Kong is seen holding likely refers to the portrayal of Ann Darrow by Fay Wray in the 1933 version of King Kong.
