Jim King said...: Page 24 (your numbering) was drawn by Walter Simonson. I think. At least that foreground figure was.; 25 June 2011 02:41
Richard Bensam said...: I remember this from the teen years as well. And I may be alone in this, but the Apes stuff was always my favorite writing by Moench.; 25 June 2011 06:41
Steve Miller, Writer of Stuff said...: I, too, remember this story. It ranked as one of my favorite comics as a kid, and reading it again, I still adore it!

Thanks for posting it! You're getting another link from "Shades of Gray" in short order. :); 25 June 2011 07:59
Chuck Wells said...: Terrific stuff, and really appreciated. I never picked up a single copy of this mag, and boy do I regret it.; 25 June 2011 17:11
joe bloke said...: you're right there, I think.

Richard, I agree with you, mate. The Future History Chronicles are among some of my very favourite comics from that time. and the art on those stories!!! I mean, they were pretty damn awesome when Mike Ploog was doing them, but do you remember when they brought Tom Sutton in? sweet christmas, but that stuff was glorious!

Steve, you're welcome, and thanks!

Chuck, seriously, you need to go track them down. they were brilliant. I've seen old issues going for pretty reasonable prices, too.; 25 June 2011 20:43
