apparently theres a goddamn pterodactyl in marvel comics named sauron
comics are fuckin wild
update: he is also a professor at a school
is this the guy who wants to turn people into dinosaurs instead of curing cancer?
Yes. Yes, it is.
#the story behind this character is amazing#he was supposed to turn into a bat#and be vampiric#but the comics code authority said no vampires#so the writers were like#FUCK IT#HE’S A FUCKING DINOSAUR#HOW YOU LIKE ME NOW???? (via @portraitoftheoddity)
There is no part of this post I don’t find hilarious.
This is me when I grow up.
What’s great is he occasionally teams up with this dorkus:
Who was a scientist who got ahold of dinosaur DNA from the Savage Land (a jungle-y dinosaur preserve in Antarctica ripped right out of an Edgar Rice Burroughs story because comics are awesome) and went ‘hey, Curt Conners turned himself into a lizard, this will be like, ten times as rad’ and turned himself into a stegosaurus, probably because the writer for that issue had the exact same thought process.
Both of them apparently have a crush on Shark Girl:
Because in comic books, being a furry isn’t a kink, its a goddamn career path.
Damn, I really need to read more comics with Shark Girl.
This leaves out the fact that Lykos calls himself “Sauron” explicitly because he’s a Tolkien fanboy and wanted to evoke “evil”.
Honestly the only question I have left is, how did he get the lab coat on over his wings?
