I think this is the Gorilla City version of what it was like to have a conversation with Heidegger, Sartre, Beauvoir and Camus back in 1940's France

"HIS DESIRE TO RULE GORILLA CITY BROUGHT HIM INTO CONFLICT WITH THE FLASH…"
PIC INFO: Resolution at 1988x3056 -- Spotlight on character and/or profile art of Gorilla Grodd, super-gorilla and member of the dreaded Legion of Doom, from "Justice" Vol. 1 #3. February, 2006. DC Comics. Artwork by Alex Ross.
MINI-BIO: "Grodd comes from a hidden civilization in Africa populated by a society of highly-evolved and extraordinarily intelligent gorillas. Before his betrayal of the leader of this city, he was the greatest scientific genius among these exceptional primates.
But Grodd was not satisfied with living in peace with the other gorillas. He wanted more. He used his limited telepathic powers to read others' thoughts, and learned how to "force the mind" and create mental illusions. His desire to rule Gorilla City brought him into conflict with the Flash and the rest of the Justice League of America. Grodd's abilities have only been amplified since this first conflict.
His hunger for power is a reminder that crime is not merely the result of social inequalities. Nor is it limited to humanity."
-- BATMAN, from Bruce Wayne's Private Files in the Batcomputer (script by Jim Krueger)

Who's Who In The DC Universe #2: Big Sir, Bizarro, and Bizarro World
Big Sir by Carmine Infantino and Klaus Janson
Dufus P. Ratchet “was born with a malfunctioning pituitary gland that allowed his body to gtow to monstrous proportions, while his mind stopped developing past the intelligence of an eight-year-old”. FYI, Big Sir is listed as 6’9” and 307 lbs.
Ratchet was kept under observation at Central City’s Breedmore Mental Hospital.
The Flash’s Rogue’s Gallery freed Ratchet and outfitted him with high-tech armor provided by the Monitor. The Rogues manipulated Ratchet into believing the Flash was a bad guy by claiming he killed a rodent. Ratchet went on a rampage that nearly killed the Flash (Barry).
Barry took Ratchet to Gorilla City where their scientists corrected his mental deficiencies. He now has a near-genius IQ and is “seeking to make a valuable contribution to society”.
The only Big Sir stories I’ve read were his appearances in the “JLI” era of the Justice League series. This version of the Injustice League consisted of Big Sir, Cluemaster, Clock King, Major Disaster, Multi-Man, and the Mighty Bruce. This version of Big Sir was most definitely not a genius. He was more of a sweet idiot. I’m not sure when or how his genius IQ was retconned as he was created shortly before the Crisis on Infinite Earths. Barry died in the Crisis and the Flash comic was cancelled around the same time. The Flash comic was re-booted with Wally West as the Flash. Big Sir did not make any appearances in the early years of the Wally West series. Justice League International began shortly after the West-Flash series started. So how did Big Sir lose his genius IQ? Were Giffen and DeMattis simply unaware of the IQ upgrade?
Read Justice League International, not only for Big Sir, but for the whole cast of characters – heroes, villains, and supporting. Great series, highly underrated.
Bizarro by Kevin O’Neill
Lex Luthor reconstructed a duplicator ray (invented by Professor Dalton). Luthor used the ray on Superman but created an imperfect duplicate. “Composed of lifeless matter, this duplicate also shared Superman’s memory, but in a distorted manner.”
Luthor named the creature “Bizarro”.
Bizarro searched the world for love and acceptance resulting in Lois Lane using the Duplicator Ray to create an imperfect duplicate of herself.
Bizarro and Bizzarro-Lois left Earth and soon founded the Bizarro World in another galaxy.
Bizarro rules the planet, “happy in the company of his family and friends.”
Bizarro is one of the more well-known villains of Superman. I first encountered the pre-Crisis Bizarro in the Silver Age Legion of Super-Hero stories. The 1980s saw much of the early Legion of Super-Hero stories reprinted in a pocket digest format. He wasn’t so much villainous as an over-eager nuisance. Frankenstein’s Monster had to be an inspiration for the creation of Bizarro – the imperfect appearance, the rejection by his creator, the search for love and acceptance – all the story beats are there.
Bizarro will always be one of my favorite Superman Family members. Post- Crisis, Bizarro has had many versions ranging from threatening (Injustice) to heartwarming (Red Hood & the Outlaws).
Bizarro World by Curt Swan and Karl Kessel
A short entry that details the inhabitants of Bizarro World. Bizzaro has used the Duplicator Ray to create duplicates of Jimmy Olsen, Perry White, Lana Lang, Krypto, Mr. Myxzptlk, the entire Justice League of America, and the Legion of Super-Heroes. Bizarro-Lois predates the creation of Bizarro World.
The World has a Bizarro Code: “Us do opposite of all Earthly Things! Us hate Beauty! Us love ugliness! Is big crime to make anything perfect for Bizzaro World!”
Superman reshaped Bizaarro World to make it an imperfectly-shaped cube.

In other news the UN representative from Gorilla City keeps throwing what everyone hopes to be mud at the white suited gentleman the American ambassador has with them. When questioned the representative from Gorilla City was quoted as saying “they know what they did”.

You are a city of hyper advanced, telepathic apes. If someone wants to colonize you, I think you can give them a few reasons to fuck off. Props on the peaceful approach though, better in the long run Action Comics 424

the dichotomy of amanda & hoffman is so funny because amanda has been in slavery in egypt for the past 400 years and has just been exiled by the pharaoh meanwhile hoffman is eating a full rotisserie chicken and potato wedges from ShopRite on the floor by himself with a stale sprite
