BOOM! Studios announced at Baltimore Comic-Com that Kong of Skull Island has such a big hit so far that they have changed plans and made it an ongoing series (originally it was scheduled for 6 issues). James Asmus, the writer of the comic, tells fans that it is becoming more violent as Kong fights dinosaurs and coincides with the humans who escaped to Skull Island with him. The unofficial tag line is "if you want to know what killed the dinosaurs, it was Kong!"
