Shouldn't that be the Ape-lympics;-)

And isn't it amazing I found a pic of two Olympic athletes that look just like you and Dave!

You'll be glad you and Roddy have this time together, just to share a laugh or sing a song. But it'll seem you just got started, and before you know it, comes the time you have to say goodbye. Just sayin'.

The second story, shown that Tumblr URL is a funny tale that also has a serious side. I can't remember the artist for the third story but it has some stunning art and a very nice style and color selection. Did not have a chance to even peek at the fourth story. Going to have to finish reading it tonight, but I can already say that it is a very nice annual.

I was a bit disappointed with the overall content for the 4 issues although it does have it's moments. A bit cliché and not as engaging as Betrayal even though it is something like a sequel to Betrayal. Just not the best Apes from Boom.

Gorillas were the last of the great apes to be studied. Hollywood had already presented gorillas as monsters and chimps as cute. It wasn't until the 70s and 80s,when Jane Goodall and Dian Fossey observed the apes.

He's a simply brilliant comics artist--he did a wonderful THOR series a couple of years back.I'd love to see a full story by him--his art is non-flashy and full of subtle emotion.I love the Conquest-style cover, very tasty---although not quite as magnificent as Ken Barr's cover to APES #18 for Marvel, my personal fave cover ever.

Good luck to Andy is in his career as a director. I hope he has better luck than Roddy did. Of course, if the one film Roddy directed had been a success, he might never have returned to the POTA films. And they wouldn't have been as enjoyable.

The word Village is not uncommon in the US. The most likely use these days is for housing developments.

Also, Virgil calls it Ape City too.
