Dinosaur comics
Dinosaurs are perfect for comics: huge, easy to exaggerate and full of possibilities for humor or adventure. Pick an idea or use the 5 panel script.

T-Rex and the short arms
A tyrannosaurus tries to clap, comb its hair and hug with its tiny arms.
Dinosaur at school
A small dinosaur starts school and nobody notices.
The meteor
The dinosaurs see a light in the sky and think it's a shooting star.
Sample script: The T-Rex hug
- 1A tyrannosaurus watches his friends hugging.
- 2He wants a hug too, but his arms don't reach.
- 3Big panel: he tries every way possible and falls. CRASH!
- 4A little pterodactyl gives him an idea.
- 5His friends hug him instead, all together: “We'll hug you!”
Tips
- Exaggerate size: a huge dinosaur next to something tiny is instantly funny.
- Use big sound effects for footsteps (STOMP! STOMP!) and roars.
- Mixing dinosaurs with modern objects is an easy source of humor.
