Dinosaur devotees will get an extra dose of Jurassic-period fun this summer with the release of Ricardo Delgado's Age of Reptiles: The Hunt! Originally serialized in a five-issue miniseries, The Hunt is the amazing sequel to Delgado's groundbreaking series of 1993 Age of Reptiles: Tribal Warfare. These realistic tales of dinosaurs are told entirely in pictures. Age of Reptiles: The Hunt is a story for all ages and regarded as one of the finest uses of the comics medium.

Through his innovative approach, Delgado has earned a host of renowned fans. Here's what some of them have to say about Age of Reptiles:

"Delgado injects the frenetic rhythms and energy of a Chuck Jones "Roadrunner" cartoon into the sprawling majesty of his Mesozoic world. The closest thing to actual captured motion on the printed page, the abrupt lunges and pivots of Delgado's dinosaurs are enough to give you whiplash." --Mark Schultz, Xenozoic Tales

"Ricardo Delgado's wordless narratives and saurian characters have their own eerie opacity and elegance, and the man orchestrates his pages like a maestro. An urgent, compelling, and primal read for young and old -- highly recommended!" --Steve Bissette, Tyrant

"Ricardo's work is reminiscent of the great animators Willis O'Brien and Ray Harryhausen, in making dinosaurs live and breathe with individual personalities and lives fully realized on the page." --John Landis, producer/director

"[Ricardo Delgado's] delightful approach should rightly be called `Prehistoric Mime,'or an excursion into the hearts and minds of the lost world of the dinosaurs." --Ray Harryhausen, producer/director

Age of Reptiles: The Hunt is adventure and drama for all ages! The 152-page trade paperback will go on sale July 2 for $17.95.
