History
Doctor Karlbad was performing grotesque experiments in an unnamed western town with a trained gorilla that he acquired from a travelling carnival. The doctor was seeking to transfer the brain of a human into the body of the ape. To accomplish this he sent the ape out into town in the dead of night to find a human test subject. The Ape came back with the Rawhide Kid, but the Kid was soon able to escape and alert the authorities to Karlbad. Upon discovering the Kid's escape, Karlbad and the Ape fled into the wild to escape capture.
The Ape soon reappeared, and went on a crime spree, causing terror wherever he appeared.
