#rexodus

Today marks 10 years since the Dark Horse Comics graphic novel created by Eric Lee and Paul Wizikowski was released under the name of Rexodus.

The writer of Rexodus was James Farr and the line artist was Jon Sammariva, and I made a big thread on Twitter talking about it, and I thought I'd share it here.

Along with this, I also wanted to repost some of my fanart of the main character, Kelvin Sauridian, and I hope you enjoy!

Here’s another Father’s Day fanart, and it’s of Kelvin Sauridian and his late father, K’Vark. When the Disaurians were leaving Earth, the Black Blood had taken hold of their ship, so K’Vark stayed behind to distract it, gifting Kelvin his meteorite pendant and sending him on his way. But, Kelvin tried to come back to save him, only to be cryogenically sedated like the other Disaurians, but for him, he was frozen for 64.5 million years. When he awoke in the present day, his father had long passed. But, even though K'Vark died, he indirectly left his son Kelvin with another opportunity in life, now in the present with his new human ally, Amber Dixon, and a crew of modern Disaurians. Hope you enjoy!

Here’s the necklace pendant worn by Kelvin Sauridian/Sauridon for the majority of the Rexodus graphic novel by Dark Horse and Steelhouse Productions. Kelvin was gifted this pendant 64.5 Mya by his father K’Vark when he stayed behind to save him and their ship from the Black Blood. Although Kelvin went after him, he was frozen and forgotten for those 64.5 million years until Amber Dixon accidentally awakened him in present North America. After Kelvin and Amber are able to defeat the Black Blood and save Earth and Amber’s dad, Kelvin gifts Amber this same pendant as they bid farewell until their next adventure, which unfortunately never happened, because the Rexodus comic only had the first graphic novel.

I want to note that Rexodus is not my invention, and that it’s a real graphic novel I think should’ve gotten more attention. I have links to my other art of Rexodus if you want, but this was also a WIP. But, nonetheless, enjoy!

Here’s what was going to be a practice sketch for some dinosaurs, with an Iguanodon already done. What was going to be a Carnotaurus sketch ended up with me finally making some more fanart of Rexodus, the paleomedia I considered lost awhile ago. I think for the one on the right I did a great job. Enjoy!
