Marvel's full plan for publishing Planet of the Apes comics is very much a 2023 problem but in the meantime, they've released a complete list of gloriously batshit variant covers to celebrate the licensing team-up.
As a classic SF dork, it's nice to see a mix of naturalistic post-Dawn of the Planet of the Apes apes and their 60s simian counterparts
