From CBR

 

So begins another installment of Jack Kirby’s Oddball take on PLANET OF THE APES, although, to be fair, Kirby explored this theme long before French author Pierre Boulle’s original POTA novel was published! Harvey Comics’ ALARMING TALES No. 1 (Sept., 1957) features a story by Kirby that’s an obvious prototype for this series. And “Kamandi” – a phonetic scrambling of “Command D” – started out as a character in a science fiction comic strip that Jack developed back in the 1950s. Decades later, when the brass at DC Comics asked Kirby to whip up some new comic book concepts, KAMANDI was one of those that he submitted. But strangely enough, Jack’s intention was to eventually hand over the series to cartoonist Dan Spiegel to illustrate, an assignment that, for some reason, Dan never did receive. (Former Kirby inker Ayers ultimately assumed the penciling chores for the book’s final ten issues.) Whatever its origin, KAMANDI proved to be a big hit, lasting for 59 Oddball issues!
