Format

Dinos and Comics does not have an exclusive or unique claim to being a webcomic.

Theme

As stated above, it does not share a theme. Dinos and Comics focuses on friendship and puns. ADHDinos focuses on ADHD and living with it. In fact it exclusively revolves around ADHD itself and uses that as the entire core concept of the comic, using each comic itself to specifically talk about one issue of having ADHD.

Art style

There’s a similarity but, again, Dinos and Comics does not have an exclusive or unique claim on that art style. That same art style has existed for many years and will continue to exist. Moreover, ADHDinos puts genuinely more work into the art. There’s more shading, the characters actually move, and the panels frequently are different instead of just a zoomed in version of what came before it.

Colors

No. Dinos and Comics uses pastel colors of a large variety. ADHDinos uses darker colors and the same ones repeatedly.

So let me rephrase something from earlier.

The format and theme of being a comic that has vaguely similar dinosaurs in it? That is literally the only thing that they have in common. They cover different topics and have their own visual distinctions. It is not a ‘rip off’ simply because they look kind of similar, especially when the entire core concept of the comics are different themselves.

I’m not continuing this conversation.

The format and theme of being a comic that has dinosaurs in it? That is literally the only thing that they have in common. That’s it. Dinos and Comics covers a wide variety of stuff but typically sticks to friendship (with a dash of social awkwardness) and puns. ADHDinos specifically talks about ADHD and living with it. Also that ‘less readable font’ is called OpenDyslexic which was specifically designed to be readable to people with Dyslexia. While they should have put a border around the words to make it easier to see, the font is pretty legible and I’m gonna openly support them for using an accessibility font.

You got here about 30 seconds too early for a part of it, although I don’t link to the other site. I’ve been putting the sources in all comics I post since I noticed you doing it, simply because its respectful to the artist. I’ve got most artists sources saved in my clipboard ready to go but I post a bunch all in one so it usually takes me a minute or two to get back to the post and edit in the sources. Just for future reference to make it a bit easier on you.

But thank you, seriously. Your doing amazing work and I thank you so much for being as awesome as you are <3

Genuinely thought “That’s gonna the proZD sketch, isn’t it?” It’s a good one!

Bender with Geordi’s visor isn’t too bad but Geordi with Bender’s eyes is fucking nightmare fuel.

I am never gonna get bored of seeing Star Trek references just absolutely fucking everywhere.

That being said I’m sorry it resonates so hard. I feel you buddy. I feel you…

Yes. Yes I do get that a lot lol I never thought that would end up being a consequence of me branching out into other communities after establishing myself in Risa. You’re not alone though, don’t worry about that!

Oh I totally get it. That’s why I love this comic series so much. Was genuinely one of the first times I could go “oh wow, someone gets it.” I have most of the comics saved to my phone which is why my posting of comics to this community is skewed in their favor. Also I just kinda love them and wanna give the artist more attention.

I paid $100 for this damn thing. I knew it was bad but jesus… I feel bad for everyone I talk to now and I can’t get a new one anytime soon.
