In "Trouble in Paradise Lost," Cornelius and Zira share startling truths with Dixon and Branton—revealing that in their time, humans were primitive, that they knew the astronaut Taylor, and that Earth itself was destroyed. As the apes settle into a human hotel and go shopping, Hasslein attempts to explain time travel to a skeptical TV audience, all while the mystery of their past and the fate of Earth lingers in the air. Written by Doug Moench and illustrated by Rico Rival, with a cover by Ron Wilson, Mike Esposito, and John Tartaglione, this 1975 Marvel UK issue blends sci-fi intrigue with a touch of dry wit.
