A cascading cornucopia of cool comics, crazy cartoons, & classic collectables - plus other completely captivating & occasionally controversial contents. With nostalgic notions, sentimental sighings, wistful wonderings, remorseful ruminations, melancholy musings, rueful reflections, poignant ponderings, & yearnings for yesteryear. (And a few profound perplexities, puzzling paradoxes, & a bevy of big, beautiful, bedazzling, buxom Babes to round it all off.)

PART FOUR Of PLANET Of The APES COVER GALLERY...
Are you ready for more PLANET Of The APES covers? Good, because here are another 11 to titillate your tastebuds (metaphorically speaking) and whisk you back to the 1970s faster than you can blink. Next time around, there'll be a dozen covers to complete the first year of MARVEL's premier primate periodical.
To this day, I haven't seen an episode of the TV series, though I long ago saw all the movies. In fact, I've got a DVD boxed set that I really should sit down and watch again some time. I'm sure you already know this, but Dr. ZAIUS was originally going to be played by famous thespian EDWARD G. ROBINSON (test footage exists), and I've always suspected that MAURICE EVANS, who stepped up to the plate when Robinson stepped down, was made up to resemble his predecessor. Was that because Robinson had a face that lent itself to the ape make-up? Possibly, but who knows for sure?
Anyway, enjoy the covers on offer, and be sure to come back for more. I do it all for you, faithful ones. 'Nuff said.
