Publisher Description.  This January, witness an all-new chapter behind the foundation of the Planet of the Apes mythos in Beware the Planet of the Apes #1!  Written by Marc Guggenheim and drawn by Álvaro López, this four-issue limited series will bring readers back to the groundbreaking original film saga with a prequel adventure to 1968's Planet of the Apes, the influential movie that kicked off the ape domination of science fiction throughout the '70s and beyond!

Into the Forbidden Zone!  In a hostile world run by aggressive gorillas, scientists Cornelius and Zira are the only apes alive who see value in the mute, dumb human race—but even they know human capabilities have severe limits.  So when their nephew Lucius goes missing, it is with great trepidation that they turn to a human ally, a young woman who will someday earn the moniker "Nova"…
