British Update: Urban Gorillas! Planet of the Apes Weekly, from #1 to #36 (with bonus Apeslayer!)
*TV & Film Related Comics: From 1974, Marvel UK’s repackaging of the licensed material spun off from the then-megahit movie franchise, Planet of the Apes. Given the weekly schedule, however, demand for anthropoid antics soon outstripped the sedate bi-monthly pace of the American edition, so even with new material being developed for UK consumption first, the publishers were forced by issue #23 to repurpose the Killraven/War of the Worlds series, rebranding Martians as apes and rechristening the hero ‘Apeslayer’, in one of the more bizarre bodge-jobs of comics history. You can read more about all that in the Extras section of our catalogue. A selection – 28 of the first 36 POTA weeklies – is restocked from #1 upwards, in affordable low to mid grades.
