Template:Infobox Kong of Skull Island Kong: of Skull Island #1 is a comic book by BOOM! Studios. It was released in July 2016.

Plot

In the homeland of the Tagu people, each year a ceremony is held in which the Tagu and their neighboring Atu battle gargantuan apes called the Kong to win the favor of their gods, and to allow them to be granted protection through the Kongs. The representative of the Tagu people, Ewata trains Kong to fight, but none of them win, which the competing princess Usana of the Atu nation blames on her training them with love and respect rather than fear. Later, the Atu leader Prince K'reti brings the Tagu leader to the edge of a volcano called the Great Mouth, which is growing more active. K'reti asks the Tagu for help if the volcano should erupt, but is refused until Ewata reminds them that both tribes are of the same blood, and they agree to unite their people by marrying the Atu princess Usana to the Tagu prince K'reti to form the Tagu-Atu tribe. While at sea on the way to find grazing grounds for the Kong, Ewata is called up from where she is sleeping near her female Kong called Valla to the deck, where the captain informs her that they have lost their course and ended up at Skull Island. Ewata informs the crew that Skull Island is a legendary island of great horrors, as accounted by feverish and wounded travelers who have survived it. Not deeming their accounts credible, Ewata urges them to go ashore to let the Kong graze. Before they make ground, they are attacked by five gargantuan Pteranodons.
