When his power returns, he escapes and builds a machine to strip his fellow gorillas of their intelligence. The Flash defeats Grodd and temporarily removes his telepathy. Solovar breaks out of his cage and tells the Flash. Grodd probed Solovar's mind to find the secret of mind control so he could control Gorilla City, using its inhabitants to take over the world. In his first Pre-Crisis appearance he met the Flash while searching for Solovar, who had been imprisoned, during a trip to the human world. The villain manages to return again and again to plague the Flash and his allies. Solovar telepathically contacted Barry Allen to warn him of the evil gorilla's plans, and Grodd was defeated. Grodd forced one of the explorers to kill the alien and took over Gorilla City, planning to conquer the world next. The gorillas lived in peace until their home was discovered by explorers. Led by the alien, the gorillas constructed the super-advanced Gorilla City. Grodd and fellow gorilla Solovar also developed telepathic and telekinetic powers. Grodd and his troupe were imbued with super intelligence by the ship's pilot. He was an average ape until an alien spacecraft (retconned from a radioactive meteor, which also empowered Hector Hammond) crashed in his African home. Gorilla Grodd is a hyper-intelligent telepathic gorilla able to control the minds of others. Grodd debuted in Flash v.1 #106 (April–May 1959) and was created by writer John Broome and artist Carmine Infantino.
