Description

Cretaceous is the research-based, action-packed and heart-wrenching account of a young T-Rex who is separated from its parents and must navigate the dangerous world around it.

When a Tyrannosaurus Rex is separated from its family unit, it embarks on a harrowing journey to reunite with them before the raw, real dangers of the Cretaceous Era separate them for good. This heart-wrenching story takes to the skies and dives into the sea—and explores everywhere in between—in this research-based, fictional account written and illustrated by Tadd Galusha (TMNT/Ghostbusters 2).

The artwork in Cretaceous is beautifully illustrated and it’s refreshing to see a story that can be told through narrative art without the heavy dialogue so often seen in comic books today. The attention to detail is amazing and when one takes pause to truly take in the art, the depth of the story shines. I feel this is also an amazing graphic novel for those who enjoy narrative forms of art, but may struggle with reading.

They had me at "When a Tyrannosaurus...". So, this, was absolutely amazing! It needed no dialogues, sentences, it is wordless, pure and brilliant and I think I am going to read it again, right now. Because, yeah. You could force me to choose in comic book store between any Batman book/Lemire's work/Saga book and Cretaceous, and I would take this without thinking. Twice. Because the dinosaurs.
It was action-packed, dark, gory, heartful, emotional - I cried a little for a few times; refreshing, wonderful, interesting, educational, simply it is definitely a must read if you are fascinated by dinosaurs! The artwork in this is beautifully illustrated. And I'm truly sorry for people who say there is lack of the story. You poor little blind creatures...
