Description
THEY’RE DUMB. THEY’RE DINOS. THERE’S TWO OF THEM!
Welcome to the irreverently silly world of two Dinos with their hooves and claws on the pulse of all things pop-cultury. Referencing everything from BK Joes, to Chinese spy balloons, to missing Top Secret White House documents to the latest Hollywood blockbuster! This collection of the cult digital comic strips, available for the first time ever in book form, is a celebration of the glorious tradition of the American newspaper Funnies immortalized by the likes of Peanuts, The Far Side, Pearls Before Swine and Wizard of Id but skewered by the humor of South Park, SpongeBob SquarePants and Drunk History.
It's an affectionate and downright silly slice of American pie with a side order of Dino guano thrown in for free!

Thank you net gallery and the publisher for this arc copy. I found this book funny and I was laughing at most of it. I really liked the illustrations they were so well drawn and so creative. I liked this comic as it was such a good read and the things the dinos came out with were so cool and the dino conversations is what kept me wanting to keep reading the comic. I really liked the name of this comic book the author did a good job in naming it. I will definitely be re reading this book when it is fully published. I am sure loads of people will love this comic book. Xxx
Like wired adult humor between two dinosaurs this might be a good book for you. There are many short comics of these two friends that say and do some dumb stuff. Definitely have to understand the humor to like their mini-stories.
This book is a fun comic strip like feel for adults. It will make you chuckle and smile. It was a fun, quick read.
2 Dumb Dinos is part funny, part insight into American humour and part just silliness. I loved this even though it was a quick read. The blurb does mention Peanuts and as a long time fan of that I could definitely see the formula of the Peanuts strip in there.
The artwork, while simple, is cute and effective at conveying the message. The subject matter is far reaching and even as someone in England I found bits funny and relatable. All in all I hope we see more of these in the future.
As always thank you to Titan Books for the copy to review. My review is always honest and truthful.
