Ep.176 – Dinosaurs for Hire No. 1 (1988)

Rolling Thunder Lizards!

Sep 13, 2021

This time on the Couch: Mike, James, and Shée continue rampaging through Septembersaurus with Dinosaurs for Hire no. 1! People love smart social satire, and so it only follows that those same people would tolerate mediocre social satire. Enter Dinosaurs for Hire, a comic about space lizards coming to Earth and immediately finding gainful employment as well-paid government agents. On, like, the first day! They don't even know what country they're in yet and they're already doing better than you would in a dozen lifetimes! It's the perfect setup for some cutting commentary about modern society, which is probably coming in issue 2. For sure by issue 3.
