Several years ago, William Stout’s artwork came out in a series of trading cards packaged by Comic Images as “William Stout Lost World Collector Cards.” Today we share with you the dinosaur and prehistoric mammal cards in our packages.

While we love the art, we have to warn you that time had not been entirely kind to these cards. Many of them were stuck together inside the silvery packages. You’ll see some ‘scarring’ on theses images as a result. Still, they’re cool mementos for dinosaur fans and William Stout afficionados.

If you’re not hip to William Stout, he put together one of the best modern books on the lives of dinosaurs, lavishly illustrated with day-in-the-life stories based on the latest scientific thought on dinosaur biology: The New Dinosaurs.

William Stout also did an amazing series of prehistoric murals for the San Diego Natural History Museum. His book Prehistoric Life Murals takes you through the whole process, from thumbnail sketches to a wall full of raging dino. You’ll learn a few things about the mural process on the way, and the fold-out pages replicating entire walls are astounding. Bonus: It’s a lot cheaper than flying to San Diego!

Charles Yates’ Dinosaurs: An Illustrated Guide showcases tons of completely awesome dinosaur drawings. No dinosaur comics enthusiast should be without it! Dinosaurs has been out of print for more than twenty years and can be hard to find. We present this work with the permission of artist Charles Yates and writer Gary Reed. Gary, now a science teacher, notes that some of the science may be out of date due to new discoveries, but was the best information available at the time.

Collector’s Guide: From Dinosaurs: An Illustrated Guide #1 (Carnivores) and #2 (Herbivores). Sometimes available on Amazon: Issue One, Issue Two.

Joining Triceratops on stage tonight are protoceratops, styracosaurus, torosaurus, pachyrhinosaurus, centrosaurus, and arrhinoceratops. Don’t let their good looks fool you — they’re ba-a-a-d dinos!

Here’s a gnarly Styracosaurus logo by William Stout. It comes from the cover of “William Stout: Prehistoric Life Murals.” The awesome full-color dust jacket protects this little beauty. And yes, we do think it would make a great tattoo! This excellent book presents Stout’s creative processes — from sketches to finished product — for the murals in the San Diego Natural History Museum’s Fossil Mysteries exhibit through October, 2021.

Extreme Dinosaurs!

The December 2007 issue of National Geographic featured a ton of cool dinosaur illustrations. While the entire article is worth checking out, we’d like to share with you our favorite illustrations here. This includes a three-page fold out of Amargasuarus, and some great double-page spreads, too. You know how much we love reconstructing double splashes to fry your mind!

Not presented here is the two-sided poster from this issue. But if you can find it, it’s well worth the price of admission. It breaks down the dinosaurs into two groups based on which super-continent they inhabited: Laurasia or Gondwanaland. If you never heard of those before, it’s because they don’t freaking exist anymore! They split up to eventually become our current continents through the miracle of plate tectonics.

Enough science and big words for you there? Okay then! Let’s rock a gallery of these extreme dinos!

No collection of pure dinosaur comics is complete without the mother of all dinosaur comics, Young Earth! Young Earth appeared in the golden age comic, Turok Son of Stone. Published first under the Dell imprint and then by Gold Key, Turok sees the light of day again in an archival reprint series by Dark Horse. We will share with you the complete original educational series of dinosaurs, prehistoric mammals, and other animals of prehistoric earth. Enjoy!

Today we share with you all four Dinosauria features from Turok Son of Stone issues #1-69. We’re not sure why the editors began running this feature under its own name instead of just calling it Young Earth, but who cares? It’s awesome dinosaur time!

Today you’ll meet styracosaurus, iguanodon (who seems to be dancing?), ankylosaurus, and protoceratops — menaced by Tyrannosaurus Rex — with a special appearance by an uncredited Ornithomimus snacking on some dino eggs!



We invite you to:
Shop for original issues of Turok.
Choose an archival edition of Turok.
Browse our galleries of Dinosaurs or Dinosaur Comics.
See all our Young Earth or Turok exhibits.
Like Young Earth? You’ll love Age of Reptiles and Prehistoric Mammals.

No collection of pure dinosaur comics is complete without the mother of all dinosaur comics, Young Earth! Young Earth appeared in the golden age comic, Turok Son of Stone. Published first under the Dell imprint and then by Gold Key, Turok sees the light of day again in an archival reprint series by Dark Horse. We will share with you the complete original educational series of dinosaurs, prehistoric mammals, and other animals of prehistoric earth. Enjoy!

Today we share with you a complete collection of the black-and-white dinosaur features from the inside covers of Turok Son of Stone, issues #1-69. That’s fifteen, pulse-pounding dinos in your face! Heck, we’ll even throw in a full color dimetrodon feature from one of the back covers. A must-have for any serious collector of pure dinosaur comics!

Some of the mighty dinosaurs you will encounter in today’s gallery: Styracosaurus, trachodon, brontosaurus, iguanodon, ornithomimus, stegosaurus, brachiosaurus, protoceratops, ankylosaurus, triceratops, parasaurolophus, compsognathus, and paleoscincus (misspelled here as paleoscinus).

Also, the swimming reptiles (not really dinos but shared the earth with them): tylosaurus, stenoterygius, icthyosaurus, and plesiosaurus.

The flying reptiles: pteranodon, pterodactyl, and ramphorynchus.

Dimetrodon was not a dino but a pre-cursor, but he’s cool enough to make the grade here. Don’t believe the hype about him facing a T. Rex. Dimetrodon was extinct by the Cretaceous period when T. Rex lived. We’ve learned a little more about the dinos since the 1950s!

Finally, you’ll find some of the prehistoric birds, descendents of the dinos: hesperornis, icthyornis, dinornis, phororhacos, and diatryma.

Think you can handle all that?! Then enjoy our gallery!
