Monkey Man 2: A Jungle Sequel

***Monkey Man 2: A Jungle Sequel*** is the second comic issue of the series illustrated and written by Jonathan Martinez. Monkey Man 2: A Jungle Sequel was published by Jonathan Martinez and Willy Bros somewhere between the years 2013 and 2014. *Monkey Man 2: A Jungle Sequel* is the second comic of Stage I. The third comic issue *Monkey Man 3: Return of the Partner* released years later on January 2016.

The sequel to *Monkey Man* received a renewed edition in 2018.

## Plot

After the events of the first comic issue Monkey Man, Monkey Man is assigned to travel to Brazil to investigate “suspicious activity” deep in the Amazon Jungle.

Shortly, after arriving to the jungle, a native Hylidae frog, named Frog accompanies Monkey Man on his mission.

The duo both arrive at the place of activity and see Dr. Doodle and some other guy, called the Random Bad Guy which they both agreed upon an agreement for money.

Now discovering this, Robo Cutters on the demand of Dr. Doodle try to destroy Monkey Man. But eventually, Monkey Man and Frog stop the bad guys and with a successful mission Monkey Man return to Big City with Frog to come face to face with a recognizable face.

## Development

Shortly after the release of the first comic issue, *Monkey Man,* Jonathan Martinez made the decision to create a sequel the very first of the many.

### Release Dates and Theories

Although the release date is truly unknown and it still remains as one of the unsolved mysteries in the series. Many have theorized the most logically release date would have been October 2nd 2013. The evidence for this theory could be found in the back cover of the copy of the original Monkey Man comic. On the back cover it shows what seems like what could of been the first early look of Monkey Man 2. On the corner of the page the words “coming October 2nd” are written.

Many others speculate that Monkey Man 2 was released the year after Monkey Man’s creation, in 2014. Others say it released somewhere between 2013 and 2014, which is now the official release date, but could possibly change in the future.

During recent years many people believe in a urban legend that Monkey Man 2 never existed and Jonathan actually experienced the Mandela Effect.

### Willy Bros

Due to the Willy Bros pact, A had to check and approve the comic issue to make it verified, but Martinez doesn’t recall this being done.

For the rest of the school year and the next one, A and Jonathan never met until two years later in 2015.

### The Lost Sequels

Jonathan had many ideas for the Monkey Man sequel, but the official sequel released and many of those ideas are lost in time and in Jonathan’s memory bank. These Lost Sequels would of changed the whole Monkey Man Universe as we know it.
