Marvel Comics announced a new Planet of the Apes series kicking off in January from Marc Guggenheim and Alvaro Lopez. Take the jump for the rundown on Beware the Planet of the Apes.
A NEW APE EMPIRE REVEALS ITSELF! Chimpanzee scientists Cornelius and Zira believed their city of apes was the only form of civilization on the planet. They were wrong. Has their journey to the Forbidden Zone brought war to their own borders?!
“I’ve been entertained and intrigued by Planet of the Apes ever since I got a Mego Doctor Zaius doll as a birthday present, and my local television station ran the original pentalogy every afternoon for a week in the summertime,” Guggenheim shared in a press release from Marvel Comics. “In many ways, Apes is one of the OG franchises, filled with mystery, fascinating characters, and some truly off-the-wall surprises. That’s the spirit I’m working to evoke with BEWARE THE PLANET OF THE APES.”
Beware the Planet of the Apes #1 arrives on January 3, 2024.
