DC Comics and BOOM! Studios have just announced that they will be teaming up to bring about a crossover event that will unite DC's Green Lanterns with with the Planet of the Apes for a six-issue miniseries. The comic's release date is set for some time around February of 2017.

So far, all other details of the crossover and the creative team helming the miniseries are being kept secret, but with this year's New York Comic-Con just right around the corner, we'll probably be recieving some news as to which members of the Green Lantern Corps will find themselves dealing with talking apes.
