Dinosaur Comics!


Monday Madness is here again, with...

Dinosaur Comics!


What makes Dinosaur Comics so unique and ingenious is the format.

Visionary creator Ryan North decided to use just one image for every single comic.  He changes the text in this single six-frame pixelicious comic strip every time he makes a new comic, but the image always remains the same.

This is the image, and the latest comic.  It's about sports (such as baseball).

You might imagine this would get boring after a while.   Not so!   The complexity of the characters, their personalities, and the subjects of each strip are amplified with this method.   You'll find yourself appreciating good ole' T-Rex's optimistic and misguided thoughts every time, in new ways.


As a reminder, I'll be posting my webcomic ideas and a demo of each on Everything Else! Later today.

    I have a love-hate relationship with Dinosaur Comics. Sometimes, it really really works. Sometimes it feels forced and honestly, just plain horrible.

    @thenitefalls do it! I am the same way about a lot of sports.

    @OneFourSeven Yeah there are ups and downs to this comic, like any other I suppose. I have to agree with you, and I take long breaks from reading DC at times.

    @ArchiePattersons that's my favorite part of this comic! So well done!

    I love Dinosaur Comics with a passion. For some reason I don't check it regularly, but every once in a while I hit it up and sit on my ass laughing for hours.
