• In the 1967 Fantastic Four, Giganto made his first appearance in the episode "Demon in the Deep". He was shown as a gigantic whale-like creature that slumbered at the bottom of the ocean. The Gamma Ray after his defeat at the hands of the Human Torch ended up falling into the sea where he found the sleeping Giganto. Seeing the creature as a weapon, he would use his gamma energy blasts to awaken Giganto where he would use his abilities to further tame the beast. Once awakened, the creature did the Gamma Ray's bidding and begin attacking the coastal city attracting the attention of the Fantastic Four. With the aid of the Human Torch, they would create an explosion that knocked out Giganto who was rendered unconscious with the Thing taking a bomb deep into he creature's body in order to detonate it thus killing it.
