Ryan North's Dinosaur Comics began 32 days after Comments on a Postcard, early in 2003. It has, however, achieved greater notoriety and recognition, winning various webcomic awards and levels of popularity I can only drool longingly at. And it does this entirely on the strength of the writing, for Dinosaur Comics uses exactly the same art for every strip.

And you thought I was lazy, using photos instead of drawing art.

Ryan's work deserves the recognition, though. In six panels, he distils the essence of existence and teaches us something about ourselves, while providing laughs along the way. I can only hope to emulate his lofty position in the webcomic pantheon with my unworthiness. And to this end, I am stealing* his artwork and offering my own take on it.

* It's a parody. I'm allowed.**

** Also: I totally asked Ryan if it was okay, and he's cool with it.
