History(Kamandi #7) - In the aftermath of the nuclear Great Disaster most of humanity perished, and the majority of survivors devolved into feral savages, while animals evolved intelligence. Gorilla-Men ruled their own American territory, but Tiny was a mutant among mutants, a 100' giant possessing childlike intelligence. To keep him safe the Lion-Men transferred him to their Sanctuary in Nevada. The Gorilla-Men fetishised him, imagining him as the key to their victory over the lions, and were determined to free him. Tiny was kept in a former dam that was kept electrified, and the gorillas shot out the power source, offering up Kamandi, the last boy on Earth as a sacrifice. They were displeased to find out that Tiny thought Kamandi was a toy for him to play with. The gorillas shot at Tiny to enrage him and get him to attack the lions, but he instead attacked his antagonists. After driving off the gorillas the lions knocked out Tiny with a huge sedative, and returned Kamandi to the city. Once Tiny woke, he rampaged through the city until he retrieved his toy. Tiny climbed a skyscraper with Kamandi in his grip, and Sultin made the hard decision to put Tiny down using biplanes, fearing Tiny would kill his citizens. Tiny was shot down, sad that he would no longer be able to play with Kamandi.
