I don't really think anyone was trying to seriously
dupe people about the "lost episodes"...it was a joke
and as I recall at the time everyone thought it was
fun.

I voted Non of the above.

 

I'm guessing that means None of the above.

Since what I usually do is check out the poll,

and if it's not stupid, & I have an opinion, & it

has that opinion expressed in the choices

THEN I vote for that choice.  But I suppose

those other ways of doing it are possible.

In fact I invented the

donated the rarer Zira

I also invented the name

Pentaceles, as well as

The Chicken Fajita Pizza.

sorry for the lurking. I am a fan but sometimes i just
feel that i dont know as much as some folks on here
and I guess too intimidated at times to contribute.

I would like to read the comic though so if someone is
looking for a person to pass the baton to i'm open.

Thank you.

>is it possible that some

I can assure folks that this is highly unlikely as Scrolls interviews tend
to be secured through official channels (e.g. contacting a company to get an
interview someone about the toys, etc.) or other reliable means. For
example, the Ploog interview - I am not about reveal any names but I will
say that our initial contact details for him came from a very reliable
source, and I was there when John spoke to the source in question.

>Maybe that joker who sent in the fake "missing episodes" article

>their trusting nature has allowed them to be fooled?

I can assure everyone that this is not the case either. The "missing
episodes" article was submitted by a Scrolls reader, whereas most of our
interviews are things we actively seek out through the appropriate channels.

>I ask again that Alan tell us who the sketch was sent to and
>how he "knows" it is authentic.

It was sent to John - I had no part in the chain correspondence so I cannot
add anything further to that. I would only reiterate that, as Neil and I
agreed, I can't think of any reason why someone would fake such a sketch or
pretend to be Tuska, especially as there was no reward to be gained. If you
are asking me if I can prove it beyond a shadow of a doubt that he drew it
then of course not, short of me actually standing watching him draw it, but
then that applies to the content of most publications.

That is genuinely all I can offer on the matter. It's unfortunate if this is
not enough but truthfully there is nothing more I can say, and I don't
propose to post any further on the subject as we would only be going round
in circles.

With that settled, I would like to take off my "Scrolls representative" hat
and put my "PotA fan" hat back on and get back to discussing matters other
than Scrolls. To that end, please add me to the queue of people who wish to
see the next chapter of your comic strip as I have enjoyed the first few
pages.

That is really promising that Fox has given you permission to publish
your comics! Not that they are currently doing anything with the
franchise. Congrats!! I couldn't think of hands more capable than you
and Neil. Really impressive and I wish you luck getting it out to a
more vast audience. If I can help in anyway, you know how to find me.

Wahlberg Slams Eminem, Affleck and Damon

Hollywood hunk Mark Wahlberg has slammed Eminem, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck for giving a false impression of tough, impoverished childhoods in their music and films. The Planet Of The Apes star has lambasted Damon, his co-star in new movie The Departed, for romanticizing difficult upbringings in Good Will Hunting , his debut film with Affleck. Wahlberg - who blames his assault conviction 17 years ago on his harsh childhood - has also attacked rapper Eminem for idealizing his difficult formative years in his biopic 8 Mile, in an interview with Details magazine. The 33-year-old actor complains, "My childhood wasn't like some 8 Mile bulls**t where you go and have a rap-off. Or like West Side Story , where you all start dancing and s**t. If I make a film about my upbringing it's going to be about more than a f**king kid doing math, like in Good Will Hunting, you know what I mean?"

That's a matter of opinion.  I've heard different

be some truth to the theory that this guy

tried to kill his wife.  And I don't think he

him say, "How long is this bitch going to live?"

And I don't think it's a coincidence that she

died ten minutes after he kicked her parents

out of the room.  Number of people felt that

he didn't want her to come out of it and finger

him.  He did remarry incredibly quickly for

someone who's wife had just become a

vegetable.   Could she have been rehabed?

That's a long shot.  But if he did it I'd hate

to see him get away with it.  I don't know

if the autopsy will yield anything, but I do

know he had her cremated which is against

her religion.  As was giving up the ghost,

as he said she wanted.  There was no living

will.  It was just his word.  True, all the legal

stuff was by the book.  Anyone who can say

what's what in this thing is only kidding

themselves.  Only two people really knew,

and one's dead.

It's central to the story, I know, but I feel that same way about Virdon's having lived in San Francisco. The point is made in the story that he only ever previously mentioned growing up on a farm, so you're obviously trying to give Virdon a history with more substance, but I think it odd that he wouldn't mention San Francisco
until he was well into the city.

That's true, Virdon is a farm boy (and according to the novels, he came from Houston, TX if I remember right... On the show itself, he mentions being from Jackson County, which there is in TX... So, in his adulthood, he probably migrated to the big city, but still lived in TX the whole time...)

I love reading comics. For those curious where
�Arseface� comes from, he was a character in a comic
called the Preacher by Garth Ennis. If you haven�t
heard of it I would recommend picking it up. Fantastic
read.

I�ve been reading comics since the 5th grade. I�m not
as much of a geek as I was back then (maybe im just
better at hiding it) 20 years later, I read 15 to 20
titles every month. I can say without a doubt that if
this book were to ever see print I would definitely
add it to my pull list. One thing some books fail to
do nowadays is to end on a good cliff hanger. You�ve
got to give people a reason to come back. Going home
seems to have one every other page. The only thing I�m
concerned with is whether Michael will be able to keep
it up. The artwork is awesome, without a doubt. I�m in
the city all the time and I can tell you that except
for the ruble, the burned-out vehicle and the other
assorted post-apocalyptic rubbish you got Lombard
down. The likeness is uncanny. The scenery and the
characters are so well drawn they put some of the
other books on the market to shame.

I�m not really concerned with the minutia. Why is
Virdon calling SF home? It doesn�t really matter. I�m
more concerned with a good story and your well on your
way. Really great work guys. It�s like you found a
lost episode from the series, paused the tape every so
often and printed out a few screen captures and added
word bubbles. I wonder where things will go from here.
Will they travel farther south to Moffett field where
Lockheed builds all those fancy flying machines for
the military or will the gang will go across the bay
and find a few nuclear wessles? I cant wait to find
out.

Thanx for the story

You would figure he'd be over the fact that he is still just the

I have a question:

I have a few Spanish comics but they have different
titles and I'm wondering if anyone knows the
difference...Is one from Spain and one from Mexico
perhaps? Some have "Planeta de Los Simios" on them and
the others "El Planeta De Los Monos".....does anyone
know the difference? I'm attaching pics of one of
each..

Thanks! Tim

Hey thank you so much for sending me part 2 of the comic! I have been away
on vacation the last 12 days and I am a little out of the loop. Can someone
give a suggestion as to who hasn't been nominated yet? Otherwise I will have to
catch up first.LOL! Now for the good part. Reading this made me feel like I
was almost watching the show. Neil your drawing abilities are truly amazing.
I don't know how you can draw Pete and Alan so spot on. I am jealous. The
story is great! Where were you Michael when they were writing for the show? They
could have used some story advice. The story literally left chills up my spine.
I want more.You both have such a grasp on how the characters should be
portrayed. Thank you again. I appreciate all your hard work.

.html I think that the ones you may have seen were the ones produced in the 80's by the publisher "Adventure comics". They were all black and white. The same guys put out four issues that were reprints of the Marvel "Terror on the planet of the Apes" storyline.

Charlton has never put out a line of POTA comics.

Another possibility is that they were labelled as "Curtis" comics, which are really just the Marvel comics (Some had Marvel logos, some had "Curtis" logos).  There was a reason for that, although I can't recall why at the moment.

Not sure where I fit into this queing system to see the next installment of the comics, but please send them to me soon!

Could you be thinking of the "Adventures on the Planet of the Apes" comics - they were a colored adaptation of the original Curtis ones.

 

OR - maybe the reissues of "Return"?

Charlton's an American publisher which was active from,I believe the

Okay, I've read part 2 of "Going Home" and my thoughts follow. If you've not
read it yet, don't read on as there may be spoilers. I'm only on digest mode
so I've totally lost track of who has requested it but Michael, please send
it on to whoever is next in line!

COMMENTS ON THE STORY BELOW...

- The characters seems pretty faithful to the TV series at the moment. The
line about moving to the big smoke to me didn't sound like something I could
hear Alan saying but I'm not sure why, I can't put my finger on it. However,
that's a very minor point as on the whole the characters are just as they
are in the show, so well done there.

- The art is terrific as always, it reminds me of the black and white stuff
that John Bolton did for the UK annuals. The three panels across the middle
of page 5 are especially atmospheric.

- "Man... or nature?" I like that aspect of the story. I've always thought
that although there was definitely a nuclear war of sorts, there is no way
that could account for the downfall of man in itself so I like to think
there were other factors involved. Which brings me to my next point.

- The look of the city is terrific. I've mentioned before that I'm a massive
fan of post-apocalyptic stuff and have watched more of that genre of film
than any normal man should. But one thing that slightly annoys me is that
not many of them get the post-apocalyptic cityscapes just right, but it's
spot on here. Some are not ruined enough, some are unrecognisable. I like
the shots of NYC in Beneath, the ruined cities in the TV show and now this
story too because it's a middle ground. I prefer to think that while a few
cities would have been flattened by nuclear war the majority of them will
have been ravaged by riots and the general breakdown of society and then,
with mankind mostly out of the way, attacked by nature too. That's whay I
see when I look at the city in this story.

- The opening scenes have been faithful to the show as well. It is genuinely
unfolding much as the opening to most of the regular episodes did (i.e. our
heroes are out wandering and then suddenly propelled into action and
whatever crisis faces them this week). The only concern I've had about the
story is of course that we've seen the Earthquake thing before but I'm sure
you've got something up your sleeve so I am eager to see what you have in
store to take this in a different direction.

- The full page pic of the three fugitives... The likenesses of Alan and
Pete are good, but it's Galen's that really makes it. Mr Foster has totally
nailed that facial expression.

- One other thing about the post-apocalyptic city - the fact that they are
wandering through not just a deserted city but a deserted San Francisco
reminded me of ON THE BEACH, one of my fave movies. (And this story is
written by an Aussie too... coincidence?)

- The final page. Wow. This to me demonstrates why Neil should be doing this
kind of stuff professionally - and being the total comic geek that I am, I'm
not saying that lightly. This is the work of a master craftsman. A lot of
people don't understand that being a good artist isn't enought to be a good
comic strip artist - there is also a degree of storytelling too. Action has
to flow from panel to panel, you can't just draw one picture after another.
Here is the perfect example - the sound effect in the background on the top
of the page, the rubble falling down the page, the panels themselves
seemingly shaking down off the page... it's dynamic, it's energetic, it's
stunning and it enhances the scene no end. Being simply talented at drawing
isn't enough when it comes to scenes like this. Superb.

Roll on part 3!

Alan

OK so here's my 2 cents worth on part 2. They tie in to some of Alan's
comments so I'll reply with his comments attached.

I agree that the setup and pacing of events is very reminiscient (sp?)
of the TV series. The 'natural' events occur on cue to bring the story
to the next twist. The problem with the TV show is that these events
seem too concocted, but they play out better in this comic format.

While I agree that the full page splash was just awesome with Galen's
rendition (best I've ever seen yet), both Alan and Pete look downright
smashed (as in hangover). Now I could understand that look after the
'natural event' at the end of part 2, but why so ragged at that point?
(Well I guess 25 years of wandering is a good reason ;) ). I confess
I've been made privy to the pencils of the next installation (thanks
Michael), so I can safely say that the Next page is gonna be great one.
There's one panel that has me completely confused, but perhaps it'll all
be cleared up once the text is added.

Whos next?

OT: I too an familiar with "On the Beach", both the (highly underrated)
movie and the novel written by Nevil Shute. The story is of course set
mainly in Aussie-land, but is Shute an Aussie himself? Didn't know that.
