Future History Chronicles was a series of wildly-imaginative original stories written by Doug Moench for inclusion in Marvel Comics' Planet of the Apes Magazine. The writing was matched by the fantastically-detailed art of Tom Sutton, as Moench later remembered: "He worked on these gigantic pages whereas most other artists were working on pages 1 1/2 up [the art pages were half again bigger than they were reproduced], he was working twice up. My desk wasn’t big enough to hold his pages. You could get more copy on the pages and get some denser stories out of it. He could get more detail in. He really got into 'Planet of the Apes'. I happen to think that it sort of jazzed him up for a sort of renaissance in his career. It seemed like a quantum leap at the time." Uniquely, Moench set these Ap

Uniquely, Moench set these Apes Chronicles in a mainly maritime environment, though apes apparently dislike being around large bodies of water and are poor swimmers. A sixth Chronicle was outlined by Moench, addressed to artist Tom Sutton and editor John David Warner (advising that it would fit into 18 pages, but that 20 would be better!). Details of this unused story were first revealed in 'Timeline of the Planet of the Apes: The Definitive Chronology' by Rich Handley, and the outline is now available online.
