1976: PLANET OF THE APES (Marvel UK) - Part Five

This is it true believers!  The final few months of Marvel UK's solo PLANET OF THE APES weekly.  These final 23 issues saw the adaptation of the fifth Apes movie and the addition of Conan (after a lengthy run in THE AVENGERS weekly) as back-up strip.

Marvel continued to reprint the remaining POTA strips from the states in the pages of THE MIGHTY WORLD OF MARVEL.

Ape shall not kill ape.  But shall ape kill man?
