008 - Tales From The Forbidden Zone (Part I)

This time on The ApeCast, Geoff and Jack take a look at the excellent short story collection Tales From the Forbidden Zone, specifically four of the stories: Dan Abnett's Unfired, a tale of a mutant pilgrimage to the Holy Land, Nancy Collins' More Than Human, Less Than Ape, about a young Cornelius' shocking discovery in a far-off place, Bob Mayer's The Pacing Place, an alternate sequel to the first film about Taylor building a new human community, and John Jackson Miller's Murder's Row, a quirky tale of Zira and Cornelius' run-ins with TV executives in the 1970s.  Throughout these four minisodes, they'll also touch on such subjects as mutant culture and religion, the fate of Long Island on the Planet of the Apes, show business in the 1970s, the twisted relationship between John Connor and Kyle Reese, Taylor's blood type and its implications, and so much more!   Straight from the Forbidden Zone to your sweet primate ears it comes!
