Dinosaur Fiction
Comic book author and artist Steve Bissette has just published the first
issue of "TYRANT" -- the life story of a T. rex from birth to death (the main
character was laid in issue #1 but doesn't hatch until #3). He plans on
it being a six year, bimonthly project -- so it's going to be a fairly detailed
presentation!
While acknowledging that the book is fiction, Bissette aims to be as accurate
as current research allows. He actively solicits constructive criticism on
his portrait of life in the Upper Cretaceous.
While T. rex is not my favorite dinosaur (as should be obvious) I'm certainly
giving this series a shot. If you'd rather not venture into your local comic
book store (and who could blame you) Bissette (who publishes the book himself)
