About the series
Angel and the Ape (1968–1969) was a short-lived DC Comics series pairing a sharp-witted female private investigator with her comic-relief, super-strong gorilla partner. Written primarily by E. Nelson Bridwell and John Albano, with lively art by Bob Oksner and Art Saaf, the book blended lighthearted detective capers with a touch of absurdist humor. Its six-issue run stands as a quirky, forgotten gem from the late Silver Age, showcasing DC's willingness to experiment with offbeat buddy dynamics.
