Planet of the Apes #5

In "Capture!", Taylor’s desperate escape ends in a net, his healed throat now a weapon he never expected. The moment he speaks the iconic line—“Take your stinking paws off me, you damn dirty ape!”—the apes freeze, stunned by the impossible sound of a human voice. Written by Doug Moench and brought to life by George Tuska’s dynamic art, with inks by Mike Esposito and letters by Dave Hunt, this 1974 Marvel UK issue captures the moment the tide turns, all on a cover by Ed Hannigan and Mike Esposito.
