History:

(JLA/Avengers#1) - Rhedollante was among the monsters on Monster Island when the Justice League arrived in search of the Ultimate Nullifier. The monsters were quickly defeated.

Comments: Created by Walt Simonson, Art Adams, and Art Thibert.

When I contacted Mr. Adams regarding the identity of this character, he revealed that it was his idea of a cross between the Rhedosaurus from the film Beast from 20,000 Fathoms and Biollante from Godzilla Vs. Biollante. Thus, I've dubbed it Rhedollante.

You have to look to see him in JLA/Avengers, but in the very last panel showing the defeated monsters, he's the one on the left that Aquaman is standing atop.
