For thousands of years, the Green Lantern Corps has kept the universe safe. But now, even the most powerful lanterns are helpless on the Planet of the Apes!
Boom! Studios and DC Comics have teamed up for a very unusual crossover, which has established an unexpected link between the Green Lantern mythos and the Planet of the Apes. A Universal Ring has been hidden on this world, and the various Lantern corps are at risk because this ring could control them all. And it’s already rendered many lanterns powerless. Even the most incorruptible of apes, Cornelius, has fallen prey to its power.
In CraveOnline’s exclusive preview for Planet of the Apes/Green Lantern # 4, Sinestro and his uneasy ally, Dr. Zaius, discover the truth behind the Universal Ring and how it came to be on this world. And Sinestro has a plan to recapture some of his lost power and glory.
