Return to the Simian Savanna Part-I

I'm straying a bit from classical apes orthodoxy with this stuff by lumping in a bunch of sci-fi stuff from the 60's and 70's  sci-fi literature, comics, film and tv.  The Simian Savanna will have a broader scope where the Apes are competing with other species beyond the remnants of man who are second-class citizens (at best) and not entirely apart from the Ape society just yet. The Simian Savanna is a bit more like the Apes TV series and Marvel Apes comic "Terror" story-lines with some Omega-Man, Kamandi and Hercules Unbound thrown in.
