Greetings, Groove-ophiles! We're kicking off the week with the final chapter of Marvel's adaptation of the classic Planet of the Apes flick! Doug Moench, George Tuska, Mike Esposito, and Tony Mortellaro get it all together with "The Secret," originally published in the b&w Planet of the Apes mag, and reprinted in color (that's it down there) in Adventures On the Planet of the Apes #6 (March 1976). Iconic final scene included, baby!

Groove's Faves: "World of Captive Humans" by Moench, Tuska, and Esposito

What it is, Groove-ophiles! Can you believe it's been nearly four years since we rapped about Marvel's adaptation of Planet of the Apes? Crazy, huh? Well, as you probably know, with Adventures on the Planet of the Apes, Marvel reprinted, in color, their movie adaptations that had originally run in their b&w POTA mag. Here's part two of that awesome adaptation courtesy Doug Moench, George Tuska, and Mike Esposito from AotPotA #2 (August 1975)!
