Dinosaur Comics is an intelligent, thoughtful and hilarious daily comic which creatively uses the same six panel format for each installment. The daily comic first appeared on-line at www.qwantz.com and now boasts over 300,000 unique readers each month. Fans "click in" to see the philosophical thoughts, rants and misgivings of T-rex, the neurotic main character played by, well, a house-stopming-0apparently-college-educated Tyrannasaurus Rex. He carries on regular dialog with Utahraptor and Dromiceiomimus while God and the Devil make regular off-screen cameos.

Must own for Dinosaur Comic fans,

This review is from: the best of Dinosaur Comics: 2003-2005 A.D. (Paperback)
If you enjoy Dinosaur Comics, you must purchase and read this book. After reading this book, I became a popular and successful person, and because chronology = causality, I attribute my good fortune to this book!Also, you know who HASN'T purchased this book? Child molestors and shoplifters. You're not a child molestor and/or shoplifter, are you? -Matt P.S. See if you can spot the two logical fallacies in this review! If you spotted at least 50% of them, you are eligible to purchase this book immediately!

For the Sake of Full Disclosure...,
By Tom Grant (London, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: the best of Dinosaur Comics: 2003-2005 A.D. (Paperback)
I personally have not bought this book (I live in England), but I have read the comics online, and I would like to make sure that anyone reading this review gets the full story on Dinosaur Comics. The bottom line is, these comics are amazing, but - this is a big but - often very philisophical and even intellectual. In fact, many of the best bits are based on T-Rex's penchant for ranting about philosophy and sociology. If you get your ire up when people start using big words, then this book will irritate you to no end. I think this stuff is great, but as long as you can get a perfectly reliable preview (for free) of the sort of things to expect (qwantz.com) there's no reason not to make sure whether or not this is your sort of humor.

This book is fantastic. If you are a fan of dinosaur comics, then this book provides is great because of its portability and also because it is very classy b+w. If you are not a fan of dinosaur comics this book is a classy, black and white representation of the comics from the popular webcomic. I have no real reason to repeat what many others have said about Mr. North's work, but I will anyways. It was said best this way:"Picture watching the same movie again and again, where the dialogue is changed so completely, and with so much skill that you forget that you've seen these images before. Now picture that every day for two years. That's Dinosaur Comics." This is that, in book form. Awesome.
