This is the definitive chronology of the apes movies, television series, books, comics and magazines. The author goes through all the individual tales and puts them in chronological order.
There are some problems, which the author admits to in the forward, such as trying to reconcile such things as how both the live-action and animated tv shows--and
Tim burton's movie-- fit in with the original film mythos, but as long as you think they are alternate timelines, then it all works out.
What impressed me about this book is the detail, particularly with all the written tales (comics and magazines). And the index lists such things as unproduced scripts, both for television and the theater, and pictures of all the US and UK comic book covers, which is very cool.
If you are even remotely a fan of PLANET OF THE APES then buying this is a no brainer.
