Get your hands on these damn dirty Apes! The not-to-be-missed pulse-pounding second issue of the all-new series that takes place before the original 1968 Planet of the Apes movie and in the continuity of the first five films! An assassination tears through the fabric of both Ape and Human societies. In the chaotic aftermath, Ape forces begin arming themselves. Prepare yourself for the explosive results as Ape and Human forces clash!
Carlos Magno's photorealistic artwork reinforces the notion of an entire society that's been created from scratch here. I love the gritty, grimy detail of the secret workshop that Sully visits and the uneasy stillness and relative cleanliness of the Skintown church demonstrate his meticulous eye for detail. the character designs are striking as well, especially for Nix. Magno conveys the power, intellect and anger that define him. Nolan Woodard's colors are appropriately muted in tone. They add to the tension. Since he doesn't employ bright tones or starkly dark ones, he manages to add to the melancholy, despair and tension that seem to permeate every corner of this world. Read Full Review
