Giganto (Atleantean Beasts) (Earth-7045)


 * This article is for the Atlantean whale-like creatures. For the monster who lives on Monster Isle, see Giganto (Deviant Mutate).

Giganto are a race of Altantean beasts that resemble whales with arms and legs. Their origins are unknown, but are said to have been genetically engineered by the Deviants. They sleep on the ocean floor until wakened/summoned by whoever blows the Horn of Proteus, usually by Namor, the Sub-Mariner.

Powers
Gigantos are immensely large, super-humanly strong, and resistant to injury. They also possesses a blow-hole similar to a whale's which can squirt water.

Weaknesses
A Giganto has one fatal limitation, its need for rest. Gigantos can only function for one hour on the surface before it must rest for another 23 hours. It sleeps with its mouth open, exposing its vulnerable interior.
