KONGA (vol. 1) #23 (November, 1965). Cover by Pat Masulli and Rocco "Rocke" Mastroserio.
No, it's definitely not a rehash of King Kong vs. Godzilla (1962). This is instead Konga, the chimpanzee which a mad scientist turned into a giant gorilla, battling the dread volcano monster Uuang-Ni!
Written by Joe Gill. Art by Bill Montes and Ernie Bache.
Although on this splash page they look more like they're trying to French kiss instead of killing each other.
And can you imagine Kong reacting like this if his face almost got burned off?
