awesome cover buddy, love pota, would watch constantly during the 70s on tv, and when they had the all day marathons at theatres, my grandma got me the megos, i used to wear the shirt, wish i had pictures of those times
That’s awesome! I actually missed the height of its popularity but discovered them on TV, but not fully watching them all beginning to end until probably high school. I was hooked! Love them all! Very niche in the art collector community but thrilled I was able to get this one & not have to stress about it during an art drop!

Painful Bursitis in right elbow, so can't write much. Fun unboxing video, Carl. Not only because you always make them fun, but because Skottie's art is also so fun! Kudos!
Oh man, ouch. Sorry to hear. Ice, rest and get back out there champ, there is art that needs commenting! Feel better soon! Yeah, as for Skottie, it’s just such a fun style. There are plenty that will dismiss it solely as cartoonish & kiddy…to those I say…yeah, and?!? Of course it is, that’s what makes it fun! I love how this one just tells a great story and says so much & boils an entire franchise down to its most basic premise. Fear of things we don’t understand!
Nice Skottie!!! Fun cover. I’m an “Apes” fan myself but haven’t found the one page / piece that makes sense for me just yet (have bid on one or two at auction but never won anything). Congrats on the new cover addition Carl! - Kavi
Thanks Kavi!! Great to hear you are a fellow Apes fan! There are some cool pieces out there but I agree it’s finding the right one(s). This one just felt like a perfect fit for me & my tastes. I also have a killer Mike Allred Ursus cover that will be a permanent fixture of my collection. Another case of artist I love tackling a favorite franchise!
Thanks again Megan! What you can’t see is behind me in one of the cubes of the display cases…filled with Planet of the Apes action figures! So yes, a very good home indeed! Wish me luck on getting it hung somewhere in the house outside of the collection room. 😂
Nice!! And as a bonus you got a “packed by Scottie” haha.
Thanks! Definitely a fun little bonus!

Skottie's stuff is so fun. I have an interior page by him and it's one of my favorites. Congrats.
Agreed! Just some wonderfully joyous art that brings a smile to the face! Love the storytelling skills he brought to this single image!
beautiful image Carl! Congrats brother!
Thanks so much Lance!!
Outstanding purchase. 👏

Love seeing the collection! This piece is obviously in the right home. Enjoy!
