Celebrating the franchise\u2019s historic 50th Anniversary in partnership with 20th Century Fox Consumer Products, this over-sized comic is packed with new stories highlighting the beginnings of the dominant simian civilization in\u00a0Planet of the Apes<\/em>!<\/p>\n

\u201cTaking place in both the original series and new, the stories in\u00a0PLANET OF THE APES: THE SIMIAN AGE #1<\/strong>\u00a0span from the birth of simian morality to ape\u2019s peak as the dominant species of Earth,\u201d said Cameron Chittock, editor, BOOM! Studios. \u201cFor fifty years, thePlanet of the Apes<\/em>\u00a0franchise has held a mirror up to humanity, and\u00a0THE SIMIAN AGE<\/strong>shows us what happens when a burgeoning civilization is given the choice to kill or to show mercy, and the fallout of that decision.\u201d<\/p>\n
