Origin[]
Ogra is a 200 ft tall huge lizard-like creature that lived in the ocean with her son Gorgo.
When Gorgo was taken to London and put on display for profit, Ogra battled with the British army to free her child and they both went lumbering back to the sea.
However after their existence had been revealed, governments, scientists, and even would-be world conquerors pursued Ogra and Gorgo for their own ends.

Notes[]
- Much like Konga, while Ogra was from a movie adaptation, the comic came out a year before the film, making it Orga's first appearance. Due to none of the Gorgo comics produced by Charlton being renewed, Gorgo is in the public domain even though the film is NOT .
- Like many Charlton Characters such as Tyro Team and Shape, Ogra's post-1964 appearances are public domain thanks to a lack of a proper copyright notice. This is because any work published without a proper copyright notice between 1923 and 1977 are in the public domain.
