King Kong: The 8th Wonder of the World

A 2006 one-shot from Dark Horse, this comic reimagines the classic King Kong mythos as a single-issue prestige story. Written and drawn by a small creative team, it distills the epic scale and tragedy of the giant ape into a self-contained, atmospheric comic. While a brief entry, it stands as a notable, moody take on the iconic character from the publisher's early 2000s licensed output.
