  With two great issues already published, I'm genuinely excited to see where this series takes the franchise, the characters, and, most importantly, the readers. If these first two issues are any indication, this is going to be one memorable series. Read Full Review

  If you didn't care for the movies, never saw one, or God forbid, judge Planet of the Apes solely on the merits of Tim Burton's vision of it, you might not care to read this continuing tale.

In closing, Planet of the Apes #2 receives 4.5 Stars, out of 5. Read Full Review
