    FLASH FACT! Africa belongs to him! 
      
    The sullen Grodd reigns over the African continent with a iron fist and taste for blood. He and his gorillas exercise complete dominance over the entire land, yet the rest of the world fails to notice. Grodd wants nothing more than to be noticed and feared and envies Aquaman's status as the most dangerous being on Earth. In an effort to gain recognition for his monstrous ways, the telepathic Gorilla Grodd plans to embark on a journey and enter the fray.

Ok well first off I'd like to say that I bought this because I never really read anything with Grodd in it before but from what I remembered from Justice League the animated series I really wanted to read this. From what I read this seems just like the way he was in the show except a bit more bored and savage (very savage). Grodd now rules Africa in the midst of all this chaos within Flashpoint. Grodd has become very upset and bored because no one knows him or ...

    The Ape Who Would be King 0

    I truly believe that this was a great issue.   A great stand alone piece.  I am not familiar with Sean Ryan but he makes a great mark on this one off issue.  The great thing about what Ryan does is that he tells a great character piece.  It's a day in the life of Gorilla Grodd in this Flashpoint universe.   What the issue does successfully: Tell a dark and morbid story in one issue.Emphasize the importance of Flash to Gorilla Grodd.Defines Grodd as cold, savage, and formidable.Leaves a great seg...

A bemused President Grodd sits upon a pile of carcasses, ruminating on how his conquest of Africa seems to be less impactful than the war that is ripping Western Europe apart. It is a rather startling commentary on how skewed the Western perspective of the political climate in the world is, and how our European and American perspective can easily overlook human rig...
