For anyone who loves dinosaurs. This is one of the most beautifully detailed comics about those big extinct lizards.The story is about what happens when a roaming deinonychus band steals the eggs of a family of tyrannosaurus rexes.

This book isn’t about scientific accuracy. The dinosaurs don’t talk, there are no speech balloons or narration of any kind, but they are far too smart for real animals and their behavior is anthromorphized to the extreme. The comic is a fantasy about dinosaurs, a fun one at that. The dinosaurs themselves are well drawn, although they sport emotive faces and, in one case, a Carnotaurus is given bull-like horns to make it look more devilish.

The story serves as an appropriate vehicle to explore the world of the comic, and there is an interesting twist at the (very) end.
