TYRANNOSAURUS REX 2 COMIC BOOKS TREX DINOSAURS TYRANT!!



TYRANT 2 COMIC BOOKS.
THE LIFE OF TYRANNOSAURUS REX!

written and drawn by STEVE BISSETTE (SWAMP THING)

VINTAGE COLLECTOR'S ITEM!

The Tyrant in the title is a Tyrannosaurus Rex, and this comic is a biography of one particular thunder lizard. No, not a mutant T. Rex with human level intelligence or one somehow alive in the present, but a detailed look at what the life of one of these famous dinosaurs might have been like. The life starts from the very beginning, which details its development in the egg.

Backup text features provide information on reference materials and other uses of Tyrannosaurus Rexes in media. The writer/artist is Stephen Bissette, known for his art on Swamp Thing and work with the Taboo anthology. Like the Cartoon History of the Universe (but without its humor), Tyrant shows how the comics medium can be used both to tell a good story and to be educational.

GODZILLA #1 COMIC BOOK KAIJU G-FORCE COLOR MONSTER OOP!


GODZILLA #1 COMIC BOOK.

VINTAGE FIRST ISSUE COLLECTOR'S ITEM!

Fantastic cover and illustrations by STEVE BISSETTE, acclaimed artist of THE SWAMP THING.

FEATURING THE KING OF THE MONSTERS!
This is the comic book that began a whole new cycle of GODZILLA comics originating from North America! This isn't the campy Godzilla, but a back to basics destructive force of nature leaving devastation and horror in his wake!

"PREHISTORIC TERROR UNLEASHED! A CITY IN RUINS! HAS MANKIND MET IT'S MATCH?"


This story gives an origin of sorts to both Godzilla and the rest of the monsters that have appeared in so many movies. It begins when a construction crew, working on a new high-rise, finds and tries to excavate a strange, radioactive rock. Scientists determine that the rock itself contains no radioactive ore, but seems to be channeling the radiation from somewhere else. In reality, it’s sending out a call—a call that awakens monsters that have lain dormant for thousands of years. Soon, the sky is darkened with insects as big as clouds, giant birds from the prehistoric age, and worst of all, the giant, fire-breathing lizard called Godzilla. Sell your Tokyo real estate now, folks!

This is an extremely rare issue, published by DARK HORSE COMICS.

Highly sought after.
