Owner's Description

"I fought the Last Dragon!" Dick & Shelly are at it again with their cover art - this time we're treated to a fire-breathing T-Rex with a pink unicorn horn. "Dragon" Yeah- you gotta say that in Eddie Murphy's voice. I don't know what this is, with its 3-clawed paws that look about as deadly as Barney. I mean - it isn't a bad composition for a 'cave opening composition' which is so common on adventure comics that its actually cliche - but the dragon (Eddie Murphy voice again) is silly beyond description. The two adventure dudes look pretty ordinary at first glance - high boots with pants tucked in, button down shirts, and brimmed hats - but what's with blue shirt's forearms? Did he swipe them from a gorilla somewhere? And where's there gear? It's like they're really not that into spelunking. That being covered, I do have to say how much I love yellow shirt's over-exaggerated pose - that really sells the fear, knee-jerk reaction to the flames. I'm going to give some credit where credit is due.
Overall? I just don't know. It just doesn't feel that engaging to me. I gonna call this one a no. The cover art failed to get me to spend my hard earned dime on this comic, dragon or no dragon.
