Two beloved sci-fi franchises collide in an upcoming crossover from IDW Publishing and BOOM! Studios: Star Trek/Planet of the Apes.
Announced at San Diego Comic Con, IDW will publish the crossover. Together with BOOM! Studios, they will bring Star Trek,licensed by CBS Consumer Products, and 20th Century Fox’s Planet of the Apes. The series pairs the original U.S.S. Enterprise crew with Taylor, Nova and the cast from the original Planet of the Apes film.
Australian actor Jason Clarke (Zero Dark Thirty) will star in Dawn of the Planet of the Apes according The Hollywood Reporter Heat Vision. Matt Reeves (Cloverfield, Let Me In) will direct the sequel said to be set 15 years after the events of the first film. Andy Serkis will reprise his role as Caesar. No word on if Clarke will play a human or ape. Clarke gave an intense performance as a CIA agent/torturer in Zero Dark Thirty. No word yet on if Rise of the Planet of the Apes stars James Franco or Frieda Pinto will be back.
If the news has you going bananas (yes that was bad) then check out the excellent Planet of the Apes comic book series (there’s more than one)from Boom! Studios to get your fix.

My favorite was Planet of the Apes #9 by Mitch Gerads with gorillas storming the Space Needle and Matt Whitlock’s Peanuts #1 featuring Ace pilot Snoopy flying around our iconic landmark – which is celebrating its 50th Anniversary in April. You can check out all 6 exclusives at this ECCC link.
