King vs Dinosaur Flag
I came up with the name Terrordactyl first and then thought of Scareadactyl as the less-frightening predecessor. It wasn’t til much later I realized one of our semi-regular commenters calls themselves “Scarodactyl”. I don’t know if the name was in my subconscious or not, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was. So thanks to Scarodactyl, who helped make this comic.
The guy holding the Terrordactyl flag is drawn to look like webcartoonist Jay Potts, who does a great comic for people who are old enough to remember the ’70s. It’s not good for all audiences though, so I won’t provide a link. Just giving a bit of trivia.

If your next strip features a spunky llama with a can-do attitude using self-reference as a bridge for cheap humour, suspicions will be raised.

Yes it would be just reprehensible to provide a link with a warning when something might be considered offensive by a few cranks.. best to give in to them at the expense of everyone else.

Uh, what are you talking about, CF?
Or are you a cunningly elaborate spambot?

Llama118 – There is a one panel llama gag coming up in a few months…
ColdFusion – I think most people (not just a few cranks) would think Jay’s comic is for us old fogies born in the 70s. I’m not giving into people except myself and what I want on my website. That’s the nice thing about webcomics, I get to set my own bar, whether it’s where other people think it should be or not.
