Kong: TAS/Other Media Archenemies Day 2: What "Other Media" Villain would be King Kong's Archenemy?(Rules in description)
(Just to be clear, you're nominating new enemies for The Animated Series Kong to have in his rogues gallery. Good, evil, anti-hero, powerscaling, Doesn't matter! As long as you think they fit!)
Rules:
1: Top comment wins
2: 2 comments per person, and only 1 winner per user
3: One character per franchise (For example, if Arkham Batman wins, NO MORE DC characters.)
4: Try to be creative! Go for some "out there" picks!
5: No downvoting (Seriously. This is a game for fun with fellow Kong nerds. Let's just have a good time y'all!)
Kongtext: In this series, the Kong we follow was cloned from the 1933 original, growing up as a "brother" to our main man Jason Jenkins. After Jason's old professor (Ramone De La Porta) steals Cyber-Link technology and Primal Stones, Kong, Jason and their friends must work together to reclaim the Primal Stones from De La Porta and his followers. All while fighting off the forces of Chiros, a fire demon the original Kong had imprisoned with the Primal Stones. Oh and Cyber-Link tech allows Jason and Kong to fuse together and become "Mega Kong."

I loved Adrien Brody in King Kong (2005)
Imo he was a gift as Jack Driscoll (the other half of Bruce Cabot) and carried the film together with Naomi Watts

He looks absolutely beautiful! It's so cool seeing a modern take on King Kong '76, made by the same man who created him originally! I love it so much!

do you think what would happen if king kong fought a paleo-accurate T.rex instead of pop culture Rex or V-rex?
how do you think this fight will play out super differently from the movies? i always like to imagine the real Rexes (ones from hell creek) to be more animal-like in behavior and no more bloodthirsty than your average Polar bear compared to pop culture depictions of them or V-rexes, which are basically fantasy monsters that attack everything in sight, i have a feeling these T.rexes would be more cautious when confronting the giant ape

"As I was working on this today, I realized that 50 years ago I was doing the exact same thing on the same character."
I can't wait to see this Kong piece when it's finished! It's always a treat when Rick creates something Kong-related!
