If you can’t get the rights to Planet of the Apes, do the next best thing: get Jack Kirby to come up with a concept that’s Apes-adjacent! That was DC Comics’ strategy in the early ’70s.

Join Tim and Emmet exploring the significance of the multiple intelligent mammals, the Kamandi drinking game, and more.
