And that wraps up a second month full of monkey business here at the Dojo. The ape has been a visual staple of comics from the very beginning, and famously a sales magnet for DC comics for several years. Hence we have a lot of vintage DC comic book covers in the gallery, especially issues of Strange Adventures. Here is a link to last year's gallery for those who feel the need for even more apes. Will I gather a third month of ape covers--time will tell. Enjoy!
Rip Off
The cover of Strange Adventures #45 looks like a scene from Planet Of The Apes - did it come out before Pierre Boulle's novel ? I've been aware of the POTA novel for around 40 years but it wasn't until early last year that I finally read it.
ReplyDeleteThat issue of SA predates the Boule novel by eight years or so. I've read the Boule novel one time, and need to do it again.
