review:

Imagine a team of humanoid dinosaurs battling a different team of humanoid dinosaurs for the fate of the planet Earth. That's what you get in Jurassic Strike Force 5, a new comic that feels a little bit like an old 1980s cartoon/toy commercial (think Transfomers or G.I. Joe).



When excavators in the Arctic accidentally awaken something in the ice, they find themselves under attack by armored dinosaurs. Their evil leader Zalex is responsible for these genetic mutations from a trip he made to Earth in the distant past. Fortunately, a force for good has created an equal force.



Initially, I had problems with this, but to be honest, I'm not the target audience. This is totally for 8-12 year olds who can read something like this and not be bothered by a shining tank coming out of million-plus year old ice. And the 2 sides are completely equal. There are 5 different dinosaurs on the evil side and the same 5 different dinosaurs on the good side. So fights are T-Rex to T-Rex, etc. Kids should love it. I was not as thrilled.
