Another bit of monkey business for shaxper and others who enjoy some banana shenanigans! As I recall from single issue purchases at the time, these were some quite good POA comics by creators who truly loved the POA concepts and wanted to make something special. It is a wonderful time to be a POA fan as there are some truly wonderful series being done up these days. Wish I had this much comic fun to have enjoyed back in the 70's and 80's!!! Planet of the Apes: Before the Fall Omnibus Paperback – May 21, 2019 . by Gabriel Hardman (Author, Illustrator), Corinna Bechko (Author) Amazon pre-order $39.99 Twenty years before an Astronaut named Taylor fell from the stars, the Planet of the Apes is gripped with a cataclysmic crisis between Apes and Man! Ape society is in flux. The rigid caste system is breaking down. Humans can't speak and are considered animals, but are tolerated in the City. Scientific curiosity is smashing old taboos. But not everyone is happy with the new status quo. When an Ape general named Aleron discovers that the Lawgiver’s most sacred commandment—Ape Does Not Kill Ape—has been broken, he unwittingly unlocks a vast conspiracy deep in Ape City that will upend society, and all of history. On the run and faced with unspeakable betrayal, Aleron crosses paths with Doctor Zaius, Zira, Cornelius, and others as he journeys into the heart of the Forbidden zone to discover the truth. Collected together for the first time in one prestigious omnibus, experience the entire critically-acclaimed Apes saga from Gabriel Hardman (Green Lantern) and Corinna Bechko (Star Wars: Legacy), and celebrated illustrators Marc Laming (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) and Damian Couceiro (Old Man Logan).
