It should be noted that I seem to have missed #8. I need to look into that.

Now on tour...

Super Dinosaur #9

Image Comics/Skybound Entertainment (March, 2012)

WRITER/CO-CREATOR: Robert Kirkman
PENCILER/COLORIST/CO-CREATOR: Jason Howard
INKER: Cliff Rathburn
LETTERER: Rus Wooton
EDITOR: Sina Grace

The Dinomen learn a bit more about “Minimus”. Super Dinosaur and Derek team with Squidious and General Casey to finally take down the Exile…and learn his secret! Meanwhile, Dr. Dynamo breaks out Maximus in order to find out what happened to Mrs. Dynamo.

What they got right: When it does action, it does action right.

What they got wrong: Too many subplots. You have the usual SD/Derek butt-kicking, the “Dr. Dynamo’s wife” subplot, the “Minimus” subplot, the Exile’s backstory…it’s kind of a distraction.

Recommendation: Still fun. Still recommended, but they need to reduce the subplots a bit.

I'd give him a high grade just on principle.
