Timothy Dinoman is on the trail of a stolen satellite! To learn what these suspected supervillains want with outer-space tech, the world' s nicest iguanodon will visit a mountain fortress, a giant blimp, and a diner with excellent pancakes. On the way, he' ll even meet a really cute cat. Grab your rocket boots and your fake mustache--it' s time to crack the case with Timothy!

#01: Timothy Dinoman Saves the Cat

Can a villain use a weather satellite to hold the world captive? Not on this dinosaur' s watch. When Mr. Bowman and his henchmen, Brams and Quaid--all light-skinned--steal and launch the satellite, agents Timothy Dinoman, an iguanodon who wears an eyepatch, and Jen Robins, a light-skinned human, work to foil the plot. They' re helped by Abraham, Bowman' s white cat (a nod to the feline petted by the Bond villain in From Russia With Love), whom good-hearted Timothy saves when Bowman' s lair goes up in flames. In an underlying plot thread, the release of Space Beam, a so-bad-it' s-good movie, foreshadows the real impending danger. Bursting with visual energy that leaps off the page, the artwork brings to life vivid action scenes, including an elaborate fight sequence in and then on top of a speeding train and an extended footrace and vehicular chase that would impress even Wile E. Coyote. There are laugh-out-loud moments aplenty: Timothy and a henchman pause midfight after knocking over a shelf of first-edition books (Timothy even stops to browse). Readers will enjoy the James Bond-esque gadgets, like a data transmitter hidden inside a container of dental floss. This tale has heart, too: Timothy and Jen' s bond is a strong one, and Timothy' s kindness toward Abraham is repaid at critical moments, leading to a satisfying conclusion. Action-packed, save-the-world drama mixed with humor and heart. (Graphic novel. 10-14)--Kirkus Reviews -- "Journal" (8/15/2022 12:00:00 AM) Timothy Dinoman is a delightful new action star whose charm is far from extinct. A thrilling read for anyone looking for adventure. --Jarad Greene, author, Scullion and A-Okay-- "Other Print" (5/1/2022 12:00:00 AM) Timothy Dinoman is the secret agent we' ve been waiting for! Every page is not only wonderfully vibrant but brimming with action, humor, and most importantly kindness. --Robyn Smith, artist, Nubia: Real One-- "Other Print" (5/1/2022 12:00:00 AM)
