In April, DC Comics is bringing back the apes in a big way with its Ape-ril Special that will feature of the Jungle League, and will also feature a Banana Scent cover…
Here is the pun-tastic solicitation information the publisher sent us:
It’s gonna be orangu-tastic, so heat up a capuchin-o, prepare a batch of chocolate chimp cookies, and get ready to r(ee-ee)d the one comic b(oo-oo)k this year that’s guaranteed to make you go…APE!
Gorilla Grodd’s recent incarcer-ape-tion in the pages of DC’s The Flash comic book series has left a void that Monsieur Mallah is more than happy to fill. Ape-sembling a group of the DCU’s most sinister simians, Mallah forms the Legion of D(oo-oo-ah-ah)m, with an eye toward world domin-ape-tion. But the world won’t be conquered that easily! Enter the all-ape JUNGLE L(ee-ee)gue. Can this team of hero-eek anthropoids be the salv-ape-tion we need, or will Mallah’s team of maniacal monkeys bring forth the ape-pocalypse?
DC’s Ape-ril Special features stories by John Layman, Joshua Hale Fialkov, and Gene Yang, with art by Karl Mostert, Phil Hester, and Bernard Chang.
The 48-page special goes on sale on March 19, 2024.
