The Gang of the Green Gorillas were one of the Strangely-Colored Secret Societies of the Prime Universe, notable for their long-standing enmity with the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids. They were made up of literal green-coloured, sapient gorillas whose principal purpose in life was to get the rest of the universe to believe that green was a normal colour for a gorilla to be.
History
They were among the creatures genetically engineered by Professor Scarper of the First Horde using a mutagen initially developed to create creatures loyal to the Horde. Even after the Horde stopped funding Scarper's experiments, erasing all knowledge of themselves from him or them, this meant that Scarper's creations were compelled to form Strangely-Colored Secret Societies of their own. The gorillas followed this pattern, arranging themselves into the Gang of the Green Gorilla. (PROSE: The Strangely-Colored Secret Societies) Having settled on making everyone believe that all gorillas were green as a goal, they adapted brainwashing technology to artificially instill this belief in ordinary people.
As early as 1978, the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids encountered evidence of the Gang's activity in the form of people randomly abducted by the Crew on the Prime Earth who showed signs of Gorilla brainwashing. However, being unaware of the Gang's existence at the time, the Cupids didn't know what to make of them and released them back on Earth without reversing the conditioning.
In December 1986, a group of Green Gorillas took control of the town supermarket of Vanityville, emptying it of all Christmas paraphernalia and instead forcing the shopping customers to buy their green-gorilla merchandise, at gunpoint. They encountered a group of Clockwork Cherubs of the Crew, led by Commander Amadeo-378, by coincidence. Noting the affected humans' unhappiness, the Cupids decided the Gang's aims seemed oppose to their own and decided to defeat them, kicking off the Skirmish at the Vanityville Supermarket. The Cupids were victorious, although the Gang's scientists subsequently learned how to reverse Cupid romanticisation.
Thereafter, the Cupids went on to oppose the Gorillas on many occasions, “from the depths of the Amazonian jungle to the very North Pole”. (PROSE: The Green Gorillas)
