When an alien invasion wipes most of humanity off of the planet, different aliens show the surviving human scientists how to turn monkeys into highly intelligent creatures that can help join the war against the bad guys.

This all ages book follows the adventures of a young boy and his gorilla boss, who are mechanics for the all-female fighter squadron aboard a galactic fortress. Between madcap encounters with alarming dentists, rabid fans and egomaniacal male fighter pilots, it’s a wonder they manage to get any work done. Still, it’s a cute and entertaining book.

The series was created by writer/artist Tim Eldred, who tosses in storyboards from an early attempt to turn the book into a cartoon as a bonus in issue 2.
