Mar 17, 2026Planet of the Apes vs. Fantastic Four #2 makes you wonder why Marvel hasn’t done this crossover sooner. Our heroes need to rely on their wits while their simian counterparts use their newfound powers to navigate societal unrest. It may not be perfect, but it reminds me why I love comics. They’re fun, and sometimes that’s all they need to be. Read Full Review

AIPT - David Brooke
Mar 11, 2026Planet of the Apes vs. Fantastic Four #2 clearly prioritizes the Apes side of the crossover. Trujillo builds on the mythology of the original film while exploring how its story might shift if iconic ape characters gained Fantastic Four powers. The result is a comic that feels like a playful alternate version of the classic movie, complete with political tensions, thematic parallels, and a looming conflict. Fantastic Four fans may wish the team had a larger role, but the creative premise and Di Vito’s strong visuals keep the issue entertaining. If you enjoy the Apes franchise and want to see its world twisted through a Marvel lens, this crossover remains a fun experiment. Read Full Review

I had really high hopes for this one in the first issue - until the end. I don't like the gimmick of giving the apes the powers of the FF. Now they want to get rid of them, and the entire issue is them trying to find Taylor's ship at the bottom of the lake. The en of this issue is the saving grace with the entrance of Doom.

Although I like the way Trujillo connects the series to the classic movie, revisiting scenes and places deeply embedded in my childhood brain, the novelty factor of #1 is gone. What remains is a well written, averagely drawn comic that could have been more exciting with different creative choices.
