Gorilla Girls?

Post by Somebody »

We currently have Gorilla Girl and Gorilla Girl II/Fahnbulla Eddy listed as separate characters, but the Appendix lists them as one character. Are they definitively the same?

Yes, I think that they are the same character. The story in Marvel Tales 256 was cowritten by Dan Slott, the same writer that years later reintroduced her in Avengers: the Initiative

Okay, on top of that circumstantial evidence, I just checked Civil War: Battle Damage Report. The name "Fahnbulla Eddy" comes from the Appendix in that, and it's illustrated with a headshot taken from Marvel Tales #256 (exerpted from the same panel the Appendix uses on their page to illustrate her human form from that issue). I think that's definitive enough.
