Considering this is an out of continuity crossover, it\u2019s probably safe to bet some classic characters are going to see their doom.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Written by Ryan Ferrier (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers), the six-issue series features art by\u00a0Carlos Magno, who has drawn both\u00a0Planet of the Apes and\u00a0Kong of Skull Island.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s such a deep mythology to both properties, especially if you consider all of the amazing Kong and Apes comics that have come out in recent years,\u201d Ferrier said in an official statement. \u201cWith this series, we\u2019ve found a coherent, meaningful way of having these two worlds and their legacies fold into each other. The implications of the Ape civilization discovering the Kong world are huge, and that\u2019s certainly on the forefront of the series.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Recent Kong comics have been based on Joe DeVito\u2019s\u00a0Skull Island and Merian C.
