HISTORY

June, 1963. 

Jack Castle was working as a lab assistant for a morally dubious scientist, Dr. Brock. 
One day, after a heated argument, Brock knocked Castle unconscious and used him as a human guinea pig in one of his experiments. In this case, the scientist transplanted Castle's brain into the body of a gorilla with altered vocal cords. 
When Jack woke up, he freaked out at what he had turned him into, and blinded with rage he killed the mad doctor. Desperate and in need of help, he went to the home of an old friend, world-renowned scientist Dr. Mishkin. Panicked, Mishkin tried to call the police. Castle tried to stop him and killed him by accident. 
He then tried to contact Elsa Brock (Dr. Brock's niece), but she shot him before he could explain himself. Jack managed to escape despite being injured. Trying to hide, Jack ends up facing Renard's gang, whom he easily defeats thanks to his gorilla strength. The gang sets him up as their new leader. Reluctantly, Jack takes advantage of the situation to try to contact Elsa Brock again, causing the gang to kidnap her, but she managed to escape with the help of her boyfriend and before Jack could chase them, his gang betrayed him and shot him, leaving him badly injured. and in the hands of the police. 

However, Mr. Janus Pierce offered him a new life as a member of Adventure Inc.
