Let's put Jack Nickolson behind some latex
Recast Helena Bonham Carter as Zira ( for her gentle, brown,
soulful eyes)
Joel Grey as Cornelius (if he's still alive)
Nova should be played by someone little known, and very
curvacious (Beyonce?)
Liam Neeson as Dr. Zaius

Let's take it back another couple of decades--Buster Keaton as

Kevin, you are absolutely, 100% correct in what you say which is why
Hollywood is in the state it's in and why it'll never again be able to
make an APE movie with some integrity.

Unfortunately the Ploog autograph is one of a kind. The cards were a limited run and not for sale. However, we may offer another set as a future prize. You can get a copy of the Rarities DVD two ways:

1. Send me a blank DVD-R or DVD+R with a self addressed stamped envelope (email me privately for my address. Or if that is too much trouble:
2. Send $2 to Greg P. via his PayPal account: urko3085@.... If you don't have a PayPal account email Greg at the same email to arrange to send him the $2 by Money Order.

Got the final issue last night and all I can say is outstanding. I don't want to ruin things for anyone so I won't go into specifics. The main story is brought to an exciting climax that sets up the events in Battle. My only nitpik is a slight over use of classic POTA quotes.

The back-up story is one that will statisfy both circular & alternate timeline aficionados as well as being a nice little prequel to Planet.

In the letters section, while the first letter is from some crazy AOL member, our good friend John Roche has a letter published. The good news is that the next series "Empire on the Planet of the Apes" was announced. Can't wait for that after the great job MR did with Revolution.

And finally, there is a tribute to Neil Foster with two of Neil's works featured. Congratulations Neil. Hopefully MR will use Neil as a contributing artist on the Empire series.

If Ty & Joe are out there, once again great job guys. When you get the time please stop by and fill us in on the new Empire series.
