King Konk!
Marvel was riding high when they launched Not Brand Echh, a comic which made fun of its own comic book niche and increasingly as the months and issues rolled by other parts of the pop culture world. They jumped into movies with the likes of a spoof on Bonny and Clyde and Frankenstein. But they really hit it out of park in the eleventh issue with their take on "The Greatest Monster Movie of All Time!" -- the great King Kong.
They called it "King Konk" and the honors fell to artist Tom Sutton and writer Roy Thomas. It was a then modern spin on the making of the story and you can find the whole shenanigan at this groovy link.
If you'd like to own the story in good old-fashioned paper form, then check out the recent Not Brand Ecch complete collection.
