It’s the return of what Jason Aaron called: “The best PLANET OF THE APES comic ever. And one of my favorite comics of the year, period.” When the Lawgiver was assassinated by a human, Ape City fell into a vicious civil war. Ten years have passed since the horrific violence and a fragile peace is emerging. Voice Alaya has been deposed and awaits sentencing in Ape City’s prison. Meanwhile, Sully has begun to rally forces, both human and ape. Little do they know they’re both on a collision course towards an even greater danger…

“I’ve got mixed emotions: on one hand we’re bringing to a close a storyline we’ve been working on for over two years. On the other, hand, we’re bringing to a close a storyline we’ve  been working on for over two years! It’s 90 pages of war, death, politics, and redemption that I think follows in the best POTA tradition. I’m grateful to the fans who’ve followed us this far. It’s been a blast for me,” said Gregory.

Planet of the Apes Special #1 ships in February with a main cover by Marek Oleksicki and a retailer incentive cover by Paul Azaceta. This full color, 32 page special retails for $4.99.
