The 1940s-1960s were rife with gorilla characters in comics, and what's left now is just the tip of the iceberg. Most of the time they're not used seriously anymore.

is that a fucking gorilla

#Grodd is from a secret city of intelligent gorillas called Gorilla City #Monsieur Mallah is a regular gorilla uplifted to human-like intelligence by The Brain #Titano is a chimpanzee mutated into a giant by Space Radiation #(In his original appearance he looked like an overgrown chimp instead of a gorilla)#(But he looked kinda silly so they just started drawing him as a gorilla after that)#Ultra-Humanite is a mad scientist who transferred his brain into an albino gorilla when he was dying #Congorilla is jungle explorer Congo Bill who can switch his mind with a golden gorilla at will #(Yes there's at least one story about how the golden gorilla doesn't like being in Bill's body)#Sometimes you'll also see Sam Simeon (from Gorilla City) or Detective Chimp (uplifted by aliens; real name: Bobo T. Chimpanzee)#but they're even less likely to be used seriously
