Valley of the Dinosaurs enjoyed a longish run for a licenced book, totalling 11 issues, and this for being published after the animated series had been cancelled. Himes turns in his usual clearly-constructed illustration here.
Colour and packaging by myself.
As published.
Scan of Himes’ original art from Heritage Auctions.
Trade dress removed and art made production ready.
The character guide used for the animated series.
New colour.
Re-created trade dress added.
If Charlton still existed, they might put together a trade paperback that looked like this.
If DC had published it, it might have looked like this.
With Hanna-Barbera now a Warner property, DC could publish a trade paperback that looks like this.
