Gorilla City (The Flash)

Gorilla City is a fictional city appearing in DC Comics, most notably in connection with the Flash. It is a hidden, technologically advanced metropolis located in a jungle region of Africa, inhabited entirely by super-intelligent gorillas.

The city is populated by gorillas who have evolved far beyond normal simian intelligence, capable of complex thought, advanced technology, and societal organization. The gorillas of Gorilla City often possess enhanced physical abilities and psionic powers, such as telepathy and telekinesis.

The origins of Gorilla City vary slightly depending on the comic book iteration, but generally involve a combination of factors, including exposure to a mutagenic or technologically advanced source that accelerated their evolution. Sometimes, a crashed spaceship or meteor is the catalyst.

Key figures associated with Gorilla City include Grodd, a powerful and malevolent gorilla with exceptional psionic abilities who is often portrayed as a major adversary of the Flash. Solovar is another prominent figure, typically depicted as the benevolent leader of Gorilla City, possessing wisdom and advanced intellect. Other gorillas with notable roles include, but are not limited to, Nnamdi and various other intelligent gorilla citizens.

Gorilla City's relationship with the outside world is often one of isolation, though their interactions with the Flash and other superheroes are frequent due to Grodd's schemes or other circumstances that draw them into conflicts beyond their hidden city. The city's advanced technology and psionic capabilities often make it a force to be reckoned with.

The depiction of Gorilla City and its inhabitants has varied throughout the years in comic books, animated series, and live-action adaptations such as The Flash television series. The specific details of its history, technology, and social structure can differ across these adaptations.
