Trivia

  • Zorgulon is very similar in appearance to the Metaluna mutant from Universal's This Island Earth (1953). Influence on the character's development also came from such films as AIP's Invasion of the Saucer-Men (1957) and Tim Burton's Mars Attacks! (1996), which was based on a series of Topps bubblegum cards produced in 1962.
  • Purchasing the first costume unlocks Zorgulon in adventure mode.
  • Zorgulon appears as a triple-threat in Stage 10 aboard the UFO.
  • His fourth costume may be based on Gezora, the giant squid from the 1970 Toho movie Space Amoeba.
  • Supposedly, Incognito said a while back that his origin was that he was the king of the alien invasion, but he consumed radioactive waste and became addicted. Zorgulon came to Earth looking for the fuel of their spaceships. These events lead up to Zorgulon's adventure mode.
  • Zorgulon and Raptros are the only monsters to NOT have origin.
    • He, alongside Kineticlops and Raptros are only monsters to not have costumes themed after machinery.
