Messozoic #[nn]
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn this 1993 Kitchen Sink Press gem, writer and artist Doug Potter delivers a quietly unsettling tale centered on a museum display and the curious mind of a little girl. With a single, unassuming question, she uncovers a bone arrangement with a far less noble origin than the placard suggests. The story’s eerie charm lies in its dry wit and the way it quietly subverts expectations, all rendered in Doug Potter’s distinctive, precise style—both interior and on the cover, which he also drew.
In this wordless, humorous 1993 tale from *Messozoic #nn*, a fossilized scene unfolds with silent, exaggerated flair: tiny carnivorous dinosaurs clash in a chaotic scramble over the remains of a massive plant-eater, their comically frantic poses and exaggerated expressions turning prehistoric mayhem into a deadpan gag. The story’s visual storytelling, sharp and playful, captures the absurdity of ancient life through a lens of cartoonish tension and unexpected slapstick.
In "null," a curious little girl pokes at the quiet mystery of a museum exhibit, asking about the story behind a small dinosaur predator’s bones—only to uncover a far less heroic tale than the label suggests. The truth, as it turns out, is a bit of a joke, and the museum’s silence is the punchline.
