OVERVIEW

A golden-haired ape sacred to an African tribe, Congorilla is unusual in that it is possible for humans to swap minds with him through use of a mystic ring. Chief among these humans is Congo Bill, a famous big game hunter. Later, however, Bill's ward Janu wrested control of the Congorilla's body by force, but was eventually killed while still in it. The congorilla itself still lives on, in Janu's body.
