HISTORY
King Solovar was the just and wise leader of the secret Gorilla City in Africa. He was also a gifted telepath and hero, and fought valiantly against his evil compatriot Gorilla Grodd, as well as against the Anti-Monitor's minions during the Crisis. Recently, Solovar decided to go public and open diplomatic ties to the rest of the world's nations. Shortly thereafter, he was assassinated by a henchman (hench-ape) of Gorilla Grodd. Solovar was succeeded as ruler of Gorilla City by his nephew Ulgo (a.k.a. the hero Grogamesh).
