Īfter the captured heroes escaped, they contemplated liberating the villains, but decided not to and find their captor first. 2015Īfter being acquired by Kylstar as an asset, Gorilla Grodd was stored in a crystalline prison cell with all captured heroes and villains. While Solovar wondered what their troop would do now that they were free and without the guidance of Congorilla, Grodd mused to himself that perhaps now there was a new future in store in which he could have a larger role. With Gorilla City destroyed and the humans who had enslaved their troop gone, Grodd and Primat were happily reunited with their child Simeon.
