Garganta originally appeared in a one-off story in 1990 (Femforce #30), but so great was her popularity with readers that she eventually became a regular character. Indeed, the giantess became a recurring motif in Femforce throughout the 1990's and early 2000's: Following the success of Garganta, the superheroines Synn, Nightveil and Tara Fremont were revealed to have size-changing powers (Good Girl Art Quarterly, Summer 1991).
In 2001, Garganta appeared her own comic book "Garganta's Thrilling Science".
