CAP'N DINOSAUR

(W) Kek-W (A) Shaky Kane

COMPLETE, ALL NEW CAP'N DINOSAUR TALE IN THIS ISSUE!
When a mysterious drowned man falls out of the clear blue sky, The Cap'n and Honey Moon follow a trail which leads them to a deserted Amusement park.
Writer KEK-W (2000 AD, Ruddy Rucker's FLURB) and THE BULLETPROOF COFFIN's SHAKY KANE take the law into their own hands in this two-fisted tale of Murder, Muscle Marys, and Mail-order Mystery.
WARNING: Contains Pop Culture references and Impact wounds.

There was sooooooo much stuff this week to choose from, but in the end, the insanity of Shaky Kane won out. Just the fact that we lowly comic nerds are blessed with not one, but TWO new comics from the master of acid dripped, retro pop-art is something worth celebrating. His previous book, "That's Because You're a Robot" was a brilliant look into what makes people human with the added levity of dinosaurs, giant cop cars and an ending that fits the book better than I could have hoped. Now we are faced with the madness of Cap'n Dinosaur who could very well be a leftover from golden nugget publications of the "Bulletproof Coffin" world and make no mistake kids, this is one trip you might not return from!!
