Marvel Comics will collect its first Planet of the Apes comics in a new omnibus, Planet of the Apes Adventures: The Original Marvel Years Omnibus, to be released in March 2023. The omnibus will collect all 11 issues of Adventures on the Planet of the Apes, written by Doug Moench with art by George Tuska and Aldredo Alcala, in a single volume. The comics, which are direct adaptations of the films Planet of the Apes and Beneath the Planet of the Apes, were originally published in black and white magazine format in 1974 and then released in color in 1975. The omnibus will have a main cover by E.M. Gist and a direct market exclusive cover by Gil Kane.
Marvel published Planet of the Apes comics from 1974 to 1977, and a number of other comics publishers, most recently BOOM! Studios, have held the license since then. Marvel announced last week that it would begin publishing new comics, collections, and reprints in 2023 (see “Marvel Gets ‘Planet of the Apes’ (Back)”).
