Swipe File - Two Apes, One Cover

Art by Karl Richardson & Francis Manapul
If you had asked me what were the chances of opening the Previews catalog and finding two covers featuring a big scary ape crushing a human skull, I would say they were near zero. Two of them? Even less.
And yet here we are. On the left we have BOOM!'s Planet of the Apes  cover, and on the right DC's Grodd of War, part of their Flashpoint event. I don't think this is a true swipe, as the art is very different on both of these, just one of those odd coincidences where two artists will use the same layout and/or composition.

Grood of War has inside art by the great Ig Guara.

Just plugging my teacher's work. :P

Yay it's Ryan the patronizing ass, god forbid a reader would have a negative opinion of a feature

Sorry, Anon, that has been mostly my fault.

Francine-I don't see a negative opinion of this feature...I see someone annoyed we took a weekend. I also see me smiling, but thanks for the name-calling. Appreciated.

My name is Kirk Warren and I’m a full time comic fan blowing my pay cheques on way too many comics every week.


Back in the early 90's, my mother bought me a Spider-Man comic to shut me up on a trip. I didn’t know it at the time, but that moment changed my life. Since then I've become a full blown comic fan and now purchase well in excess of 20 comics per month plus trades and other comic related goods.


As you can see, I've taken my hobby to the next step with this blog and it's allowed me to connect every single day with thousands of people that share the same passion I have for comics and I wouldn't change that for the world.
