In the comic "[[Donkey Kong in: Banana Day 24]]", published in the same magazine, he supported Donkey, Diddy, Dixie and Kiddy on their mission to save the [[Earth]] from being pulled away from the sun by a giant [[UFO]]. It was his idea to carry on negotiations with the aliens so they would release the Earth. The [[Mr. President|President of the United States]] puts a space shuttle at the Kongs' disposal, and Cranky is the one to navigate it. He beams Donkey, Diddy and Dixie into the UFO and stays in the Kongs' space shuttle meanwhile. When their mission succeeds, he navigates the space shuttle back to Earth, where the Kongs are being hailed by the people. Euphorically, Cranky tries to kiss a random girl, much to her disgust. After returning to their jungle, Cranky gets in trouble with his wife Wrinkly because of this. During the events of this story, Cranky did not show much of his grouchy traits as often discovered in the games, but instead appears as a helpful person. | In the comic "[[Donkey Kong in: Banana Day 24]]", published in the same magazine, he supported Donkey, Diddy, Dixie and Kiddy on their mission to save the [[Earth]] from being pulled away from the sun by a giant [[UFO]].

Cranky is featured in the ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Action Special]]'' comic "The Big Banana Robbery". At the beginning of the comic, Crankey yells at sleeping Donkey Kong and invites him to check the empty Banana Hoard. As Donkey Kong heads off to find the missing bananas and rescue the missing Diddy Kong, Cranky stays behind, saying he "can't be bothered" to help. | |||
Cranky later stars in the comic "A Blast From The Past". While uncloging a pipe at his treehouse, Cranky is disrupted by [[Ace investigative reporter|a human reporter]], who introduces himself by asking Cranky if he remembers anything about [[Pauline]]. Recalling it as "a long time ago", Cranky proceeds to tell the tale of when he last saw her. | |||
In a flashback, a [[Donkey Kong|younger Cranky Kong]] is climbing a construction site, telling Pauline it's "something I saw in a movie once". The commotion attracts a nearby [[Electrician|electrician]], who tries to rescue Pauline. Donkey Kong throws a [[Barrel|barrel]] at the individual, but he manages to get to the top of the construction site. Donkey Kong hits him with another barrel, but the electrician gets back up yet another time and taunts Donkey Kong, who retaliates by throwing ton of barrels at him and seemingly knocking the man out of sight. | |||
Donkey Kong is concerned, saying he didn't want to harm the man. The electrician pops out of the barrel Donkey is holding, scaring him. A furious Pauline kicks Donkey Kong, adominishing him for his antics and promising to get even. | |||
Finishing his tale, Cranky said the event made him get out of the city. The reporter goads him into telling more by showing Pauline got movie and book deals out of her side of the story, whose unflatering depictions of Cranky make him furious. Cranky claims to have the ugly truth about Pauline, starting his new tales with the words "The first time I carried her to the top of a building..." before the story ends. | |||
