The press release follows:
Media Release -- Titan Comics is thrilled to announce 2 Dumb Dinos, an irreverent graphic novel that emulates the nostalgia of humorous newspaper strips. Written by Eric Filipkowski (South Park, SpongeBob Squarepants, Drunk Histories), this comedic feast is accompanied by art from Nathan Hamill. The weekly cult digital online comic strip will be available for the first time in print from September 3, 2024.
With over 230 digital comic strips on Instagram over the past 5 years, 2 Dumb Dinos has amassed a sizable fanbase, including a number of high-profile fans with the creation of a theme song, from Gaten Matarazzo (Stranger Things) and his band Work In Progress.
Welcome to the irreverently silly world of two Dinos with their hooves and claws on the pulse of all things pop-cultury. Referencing everything from BK Joes, to Chinese spy balloons, to missing Top Secret White House documents to the latest Hollywood blockbuster!
"We are excited to bring 2 Dumb Dinos to the printed page and reach the eyeballs of a whole new audience of comic strip fans who have never heard of the internet," said artist Nathan Hamill.
"If you don't love comic-strips that are wildly inventive, absurd, minimalist, surreal & very, very funny, then 2 Dumb Dinos is not for you."
Mark Hamill (Star Wars, Batman the Animated Series)
