 Profiles 21 - Silver Age Animals in Spandex (Feb 2000)
Ace didn't catch on during his brief moment in the Batman spotlight, but the passage of time has magnified his significance, and in subsequent decades he has become became something of a poster child for the Silver Age comics of the Absurd.
Jor-El, it seems, had run animal tests on his rocket system prior to committing his firstborn to his rocket design; and he had sent Beppo, who sometimes seemed like a monkey (a simian with a tail) and sometimes like a chimpanzee (a tailless great ape with much more in common with humans than monkeys share).
Begin with the premise of a roomful of talking - and occasionally squabbling - dogs, and place them not in their native genre (funny animal comics) but in the superhero comic, a form with different conventions that tend to exclude a ubiquity of sentient beasts.

 Northwestern Chronicle: The Week in Comics
The busiest writer in comics returns to the Man Without Fear as the regular writer with this issue, joined by new regular artist Alex Maleev, his artistic collaborator on "Sam and Twitch," the only Spawn-related property to ever be worth the paper it was printed on.
He is truly one of the most talented men working in comics today and Marvel is lucky to have corralled him into writing two of their most popular characters.
Joe Casey's run on "Adventures" has been hot and cold with me. I loved issue #594 during OWAW where Doomsday was resurrected to battle Imperiex, but I absolutely despised issue #592 which featured Strange Visitor, the worst ancillary Superman character since Beppo the Super-chimp.

 Krypton (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Silver Age Superman was not alone in the survival of Krypton's destruction, being joined by his cousin Supergirl, the Phantom Zone criminals, Beppo the super-monkey, Krypto the superdog, a juvenile delinquent named Dev-Em and the entire population of the city of Kandor.
Named after the chemical element krypton, the planet was created by Superman creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, and was first referred to in Action Comics #1 (June 1938); the planet was given its first full-fledged appearance in Superman (volume 1) #1 (1939).
Soon, beginning in the Superman comic strip, Krypton was shown to have been an evolved version of Earth, older by eons and possessed of all the beneficial progress that implied (though the downside was the hint that Krypton exploded due mainly to old age).
