No, I was about ten at the time and had not, at that stage read
Boulle's book.Had I read the book, prior to seeing the animated series,
that might have taken the edge off my surprise about seeing Apes in
trucks, because I would previously have read a book featuring Apes in
trucks, and so might not have been quite so surprised.John, Scrolls.

If there was a patron saint of Apes fans, Greg would be it--'Saint
Gregory Simios'?.Actually, that has a ring to it.Saint Greg it is.Lord
of the Apes is well worth a read.The adaptation of The Tyrant, in
particular, is a treat, because it is virtually a new episode given its
many deviations from the filmed episode.It's really good that this rare
gem is now available to all.Fantastic work Greg.Also, is 'Jass' the
artist formaerly known as 'Kass'---maybe it's her slightly less evil
twin? John, Scrolls.

Kinda Off Topic But I seem to recall Someone here Worked in some
Capacity at the Sci-Fi Channel? Well I just wanted to ask them if they
knew of any plans on Airing any more of the old Lost In Space series or
possibly the old "V" Series? Not the "V" Mini Series or "Final Battle"
But the Weekly Show I think it lasted about a Season lol Thanks
