In hindsight, merging the Tarzan and Planet of the Apes franchises is such an obvious idea it's surprising it hasn't happened before now. But at least Dark Horse is doing right by this particular crossover. Tarzan on the Planet of the Apes offers a clever fusion of the two universes, one that avoids the usual comic book crossover cliches.
This crossover isn't another case where one character falls through a portal and winds up in another universe. There's no obligatory opening chapter where two heroes fight before realizing they have a common enemy. Clearly, writers Tim Seeley and David F. Walker put a lot of thought into how Tarzan's world should intersect with the Planet of the Apes. The method they arrive at is to paint this tale as a sort of alternate universe sequel to 1970's Beneath the Planet of the Apes. What if, instead of traveling back to the 1970's, as they did in Escape From the Planet of the Apes, Cornelius and Zira arrived at the turn of the century? What if they happened across an abandoned baby in the jungle and raised him as their own son?
