PLANETS OF THE APES/GREEN LANTERN
BOOM! Studios has announced a Feb. 1 launch for Planet of the Apes/Green Lantern debuts, a six-issue monthly limited series.
The series will be written by Robbie Thompson and Justin Jordan and illustrated by Barnaby Bagenda.
"We've been having endless amounts of fun collaborating with our friends at DC Entertainment and this new crossover only ups the ante," said Matt Gagnon, BOOM!'s editor-in-chief. "Both Planet of the Apes and Green Lantern boast decades of entertaining stories and dozens of fan-favorite characters. The result of crossing over these two incredible franchises is an ambitious, epic story that's brimming with one of the most enjoyable cast of characters in all of comics."
Here's how the series is described:
"When Taylor goes missing, Cornelius investigates and discovers an ancient ring, unlike anything he has ever seen. As its power echoes through the stars, the Guardians of the Universe must reveal to their Lanterns a secret they had hoped would remain buried. With the Green Lantern Corps, led by Hal Jordan, racing to get to the source of this power before Sinestro can get his hands on it, they will discover a truth that will change them forever on...the Planet of the Apes!"
"We're excited to partner with BOOM! Studios for another fascinating crossover, combining favorite characters in an epic adventure,” said Hank Kanalz, Senior Vice President, Editorial Strategy and Administration, DC Entertainment. "A Green Lantern Ring seeks out one who is utterly honest and born without fear, so landing a Ring on the Planet of the Apes is filled with unlimited potential. The real fun begins when other rings -- and other apes -- get thrown in the mix!"
The main cover to issue #1 is illustrated by Ethan Van Sciver. Variant covers include a movie poster homage cover by Steve Morris, a Silver Age-themed cover by Paul Rivoche, a foil-stamped cover by Felipe Massafera and a vintage action figure cover by David Ryan Robinson.
