Unfortunately in the summer of 2011 Terry Hoknes had a major hard drive crash and lost almost everything relating to the fan club's 20 year history and our website domain time ran out so Terry decided not to renew the website.  However luckily we are still able to make all 50 issues of Ape Chronicles still available !   Please email with any questions.

 

 

ISSUES INDEX #1-25

Here is a quick reference to find articles from our first 25 issues that everyone can use for finding an article they want to read without flipping through these 500 pages of articles.   For those of you who do not own every issue this is a great place to start in deciding which issues have articles that interest you.  I have personally rated each issue for its overall usefulness and educational articles

NEW BOOKS ABOUT PLANET OF THE APES

Hasslein Books Announces

Upcoming Planet of the Apes Encyclopedia

Lexicon of the Planet of the Apes: The Comprehensive Encyclopedia,

a 425-page volume covering the entire Planet of the Apes franchise

from Aldo to Zira, will be released this coming holiday season.

NEW YORK, Sept. 20, 2010—If you've ever wished you could learn more about the Planet of

the Apes mythos… if you've devoured the films and TV series, but have never read the comic

books or novels that continued their story… if you're tantalized by time travel and titillated by

trivia… if you think you know all there is to know about simian society… then Lexicon of the

Planet of the Apes is meant for you.

This staggeringly complete lexicon from Hasslein Books, written by Timeline of the Planet of the

Apes author Rich Handley and designed by Paul C. Giachetti, will contain:

• Nearly 3,200 alphabetical entries in more than 50 indexed

categories, detailing every character, creature, device,

institution, location, scientific innovation, weapon, vehicle

and more, from every Planet of the Apes movie, episode,

cartoon, comic and novel to date

• More than 25 lifelike, full-page sketches, as well as a

breathtaking cover painting, from famed illustrator Patricio

Carbajal, produced exclusively for this volume

• A motherlode of information regarding unpublished, unfilmed

or uncompleted scripts, novels, comics and more, direct from

the creators themselves, as well as long-forgotten stage and

arena shows and short films from the 1970s

• An insightful, nostalgic and witty foreward written by

famed literary critic and blogger John Kenneth Muir, the

author of 21 reference books about film and television

• And a sneak-peak at BLAM! Ventures' upcoming licensed tie-in novel, Conspiracy of the

Planet of the Apes, courtesy of co-author Andrew E. C. Gaska

John Muir calls Lexicon of the Planet of the Apes: The Comprehensive Encyclopedia "the

realization of a childhood fantasy… the book I only wish I had in hand when I was twelve years

old and longing for more detail, more knowledge, more understanding of time warps, Hasslein

Curves, Achilles Lists and the like."

Designed for both casual readers and those who devour encyclopedias from start to finish,

Lexicon of the Planet of the Apes will help you learn everything there is to know about the

upside-down world of Planet of the Apes. For more information, including pricing and the official

release date, keep an eye on Hasslein Books' Web site, hassleinbooks.com.

Archaia’s first venture into prose books!

After his spacecraft smashes into the dead sea of an alien planet, a man is separated from his fellow astronauts when a raiding party of intelligent apes attacks them. Captured, he finds himself a prisoner in a world turned upside down, with apes as the rulers and man in its zoos. His only hope is to communicate with a couple of chimpanzee scientists who just might be open-minded and compassionate enough to be sympathetic to his cause. But the man named John Landon will discover that intelligent minds, be they ape or man, all fear the unknown, and his destiny is not to become part of this new world, but instead to find himself under the knife of a simian brain surgeon on the PLANET OF THE APES.

Set during the classic 1968 film, CONSPIRACY OF THE PLANET OF THE APES tells the story of what happened between the scenes and centers on the astronaut Landon, Gorilla police chief Marcus, and Chimpanzee scientist Dr. Milo, and contains over 50 illustrations from various top talents in the industry, including full-color paintings by Jim Steranko, Joe Jusko, Dave Dorman, Barron Storey, Sanjulian and Mark Texiera, starship design by Andrew Probert, character portraits by Matt Busch and more!

Available summer 2011.

Timeline of the Planet of the Apes: The Definitive Chronology

Now Available from Hasslein Books

 This 322-page volume, created to help celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Planet of the Apes film franchise, is now available for online purchase from Hasslein Books.

NEW YORK, Nov. 24, 2008—It may be difficult to imagine, but Planet of the Apes, adopted for the silver screen in 1968 from Pierre Boulle's classic novel The Monkey Planet, turns 40 this year. In the four decades since its theatrical release, this classic post-apocalyptic science fiction drama has riveted audiences with its stunning performances, brilliant make-up work, resonant soundtrack and powerful statements regarding humanity, science and religion, as well as the jaw-dropping revelation in its legendary final moments.   But that was just the beginning of the story. Four sequels, two television series, a 2001 re-make, and more than a dozen novels and 120 comic books later, Planet of the Apes remains a living, breathing mythos, with a new movie (Genesis: Apes) currently in the works. To commemorate the film's landmark 40th anniversary, Hasslein Books announces the online availability of Timeline of the Planet of the Apes: The Definitive Chronology, a hefty softcover volume that explores:

 • How a small-scale simian rebellion grew, in so short a time, into a complete, planet-wide reversal of fates for humanity and apekind  

• How the apes acquired the power of speech—while mankind was rendered mute   

• Where the plague that ravaged the planet came from, and the effects it had not only on man and ape, but on other creatures as well

• The unique simian and human cultures that spawned around the globe in the war's aftermath—and how the Statue of Liberty ended up in pieces on a desolate beach

Timeline of the Planet of the Apes: The Definitive Chronology examines these and other questions, presenting every recorded event of the Planet of the Apes saga in its proper chronological context—from long before Caesar's birth to far beyond Earth's destruction. This book covers every film, TV episode, cartoon, novel, comic, short story and audio-tale produced under the Planet of the Apes banner over the past four decades—including a number of rejected or unpublished tales unavailable (and, in many cases, unknown) to fans. No other reference book has covered the expanded Apes saga so completely.

Along with a painstakingly detailed timeline spanning millennia, this 322-page volume features a gallery of more than 350 cover images, a recommended viewing/reading order, an examination of time travel in the Planet of the Apes mythos (both on screen and in print), and a title/creator index of published fiction—plus, many insightful notes throughout the book, discussing preliminary and discarded story concepts, inconsistencies, discontinuities, unpublished lore and other fascinating trivia.
