| - Dr. Milo was the missing link between Zira and Cornelius' situation in the second movie and their surprise re-appearance in the third. Milo, we are told, was an old friend of Zira and Cornelius who, on an expedition in the Forbidden Zone, discovered the wreckage of Taylor's ship and somehow restored it to working order. The three Apes test-flew the ship at the moment the Alpha-Omega Bomb detonated and followed Taylor's path in reverse, leading them back to his time. Milo was perhaps the leader of the group and forbade them from talking to the humans until they had judged the situation. Shortly after their arrival Milo was killed by a primitive gorilla while being held in the city zoo. Zira and Cornelius named their child "Milo", though his name was changed by Armando to protect his identity. In the 2011 novel Conspiracy of the Planet of the Apes, Dr. Milo is one of the central characters. A scientist and inventor, he spent most of his time studying and repairing ancient artifacts, whilst also designing new surgical instruments for Dr. Galen, the husband of his cousin Liet. Cornelius was his old academy room-mate and confidante, whom he accompanied on an expedition to the Forbidden Zone and found evidence of ancient machines. He attempted to build a working glider with his colleague Dr. Seraph but was unsuccessful in testing it. Later, he spoke to Landon in Galen's laboratory, who confirmed Milo's wildest imaginings about flight. Forging Dr. Zaius' authorization, Milo took a team of chimp scientists, including Dr. Seraph, Dr. Pinchus and Tellah, back to the Forbidden Zone where he located Landon's flag and the raft, and eventually recovered the Liberty 1. In BOOM! Studios' Exile on the Planet of the Apes and Planet of the Apes: Cataclysm, Milo's earlier years are explored further. Here, Milo was a friend of the controversial orangutan scientist Doctor Cato, and later became aware of General Aleron's secret human community hidden just inside the Forbidden Zone. Aleron allowed Milo to examine the human artefacts of the ancient city but Milo had little interest in Aleron's political aims. Milo, and Cato's former pupil Prisca, were present when Zaius led an army to annihilate the humans, leading to Aleron's death. Milo was sent to The Reef by Zaius but was given access to his scientific research there, in order to study the after effects of the Moon's destruction. He was freed by Zaius to take part in a mission to Painted Valley with Cornelius and Vitus. After being captured and imprisoned by human mutants, Milo escaped and tried to warn Ape City of the dangers, but was dismissed. He fled once again to the Forbidden Zone and, using the map Taylor had made for Cornelius, recovered Taylor's ship. Salvaging missing parts from Brent's crashed second ship, he was joined by Cornelius, Zira and Lucius as the ape army invaded the Forbidden Zone, but Lucius was killed shortly before their launch.
