Strip by: David Morgan-Mar

T-Rex: {wearing glasses, a false nose, and a false moustache} I say, my good sir.
T-Rex: Have you seen T-Rex anywhere?
Dromiceiomimus: Um.
T-Rex: I'm seeking T-Rex, who I hear is very smart and handsome.
Utahraptor: Hey, T-Rex!
T-Rex: Whut? I'm afraid you have mistaken me for someone else.
Utahraptor: Um.
T-Rex: {removing disguise} SURPRISE! It was me all along!
T-Rex: This could be the best disguise in prehistory.

The author writes:

I was going to say dinosaurs don't even have noses, so a false nose would really stand out on one, but they have nostrils, so... maybe they have noses?

Can any palaeontologists out there answer this one?
