Description
Thought I'd rehash this old picture. Big thanks to Alex Heath for all his help and guidance

think of general things like what Modern animals (pets, zoo, wild etc) would survive, how the the buildings/monuments etc would decay and the wild ecosystems.
and think about how each of them would be effected by the resurgence of dinosaurs...

You should read a book called 'The world without us'. It talks about how the world would decay if we vanished. New rivers would form and many cities would flood due to no one manning the damns and many city plants would take over as humans wouldn't be able to restrict their spread. I think many modern animals would go extinct due to the invading species, only animals that we actively protect like dogs, cats, and some livestock would survive, but their numbers would have severely diminished. I think predators would tend to stick close to large cities as they would make perfect ambush zones while the large herbivores would live more in the open spaces between. Harbors and man-made inland water systems would become perfect hunting grounds for large aquatic predators, though they would be rare as they would have a whole ocean to hunt in (saying that they would probably follow the coast hunting for food).
I think most of the human population would move north to colder areas. Though Dinosaurs could survive the colder temperatures, they would probably stay closer to the equator. There would probably be a lot of remnants of military influence where they tried to get the situation under control but evidently failed.

ahh, but you might forget, there were polar dinosaurs, like gorgosaurus, edmontosaurus, pachyrhinosaurus and Yutyrannus (just to name a few)
But yeah, I see If I can check that out...

Yup, I did say some dinosaurs could survive the winters, but you're looking at Jurassic Park right? Many of those species aren't from the polar regions. In fact, the polar regions in the dinosaur period was much warmer and were mainly covered in thick Boreal Forest, unlike today which is very cold. Still, would be fun to have some go far north, like the image I did called 'They found us' with the raptors 😊

well, this is the future of the JW franchise, by this point, they have bred more and more dinosaurs....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
so say that there is a maximum of 3,000 people left, where do you think they would be hidden?
(in Bunkers)
and if someone 56 years later, began to explore the surface, like what you have in your picture, what might they try to do?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'd say that many survivors would live in subway tunnels (that weren't flooded) or military bunkers.
They would probably only venture out to hunt, farm or salvage. I'd say most cities would have been reclaimed by forest and ivy, a lot of the windows would be smashed etc. Farmland would now be plains, but many crops like wheat and corn would still grow as they are a type of grass which is hardy, but probably would have reverted to a more primitive wild state. Nuclear Power stations would have blown across the world, making many areas unlivable and forcing many dinosaur species into tighter areas (story excuse to see lots of species in one place). Damns would have broken flooding many cities and towns and forming new powerful river systems. Humans would probably get their energy from solar, wind, kinetic and left over battery packs, but remember, things like generators etc wouldn't last 56 years as petrol does go bad and becomes unusable. People like Mechanics, Plumbers, Engineers, Farmers, and Doctors would be at the top of society and would most likely be the leaders of communities. I'd imagine that these traits would be a stable part of education and most societies would either follow one of these disciplines or become a scavenger/protector of the community.
Humans would probably take the risk to travel because either:
1: They heard of another human settlement
2: They discovered a new energy source
3: They ran out of food and needed to find more.
4: Salvage runs to the cities for weapons and medical supplies.
Lol a lot of this info is already a part of a story I'm writing myself, but Im, not 100% it'll go anywhere so I'm happy to share some of it with you

1-true, but I looked at the documentary called "Life after people", and while the nuclear thing is a problem at first, after about 5 years, they get buried into the soil, and larger animals/dinosaurs, with dense skin would recover the fastest.
2- I said that this is 56-78 years after the last humans hid in bunkers to escape the nuclear problem, so while they don't know it yet, the earth has already recovered and new forests have grown, and dinosaurs now once again rule over a beautiful landscape. the ruins of old buildings are ivy-clade and streets/roads have become swampy marshland (where dinosaurs like baryonx thrive on fish that in the absence of humans, have tripled in size)
3- many of the native wildlife has either gone extinct or had to adapt to the new presence of dinosaurs, which "modern" mammals do you think would survive and how might they adapt in a new world of dinosaurs?
One idea I have is domestic cats that have gone feral, feeding off small dryosaurs or pterosaurs.
4- and say that some humans come the surface and see forests growing off the ruins of buildings, and stegosaur, triceratops etc drinking from a river that used to be a street and pterosaurs soaring through the sky?.
How might they react?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I think cattle would have probably died off along with sheep (except in the mountains), but some pigs would revert to a boar like state. Horses would have survived as they are fast moving herbivores that could probably outrun some dinosaur predators. Some zoo animals may have survived like big cats and wolves. Pigeons and other small birds would struggle with the new Pterosaurs but probably wouldn't compete for the same food sources. cats and dogs would survive in the cities along with mice and rats. Domesticated cats might even get slightly larger through breeding with larger cats from zoos etc (not Tigers but smaller cats like Ocelots).
How characters react is totally up to you, it entirely depends on their personality. But I imagine humans would either try and take back overgrown cities in a primitive way as there would already be structures left to build around. However, if predators used these places as their nests for saftey humans would probably gravitate towards the coast, lest predators and plenty of fish.

1-the ones you mention that I think would survive:
feral cats breeding with ocelots- living high up in the trees, and ambushing pterosaurs.
pigs- living deep in the recovered forests
most birds- as you said, mostly don't eat the same things as pterosaurs, there would probably be more vultures.
mice and rats- living underground as they used to.
I doubt that horses, wolves or dogs would do well.
2- maybe the coastal thing.
3- Have you got got any other ideas of how this world would work under a new rule of dinosaurs?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
- I think traveling at night would be incredibly dangerous as most pack hunting carnivores probably have night vision of some kind.
- Settlements would be heavily walled off. Some dinosaurs would be easily trained whilst others might be used in a form of dog fighting as entertainment (they might even do this on a large scale with larger predators caught by skilled hunters).
- All Gasoline would have expired by then so it would be back to carriages and Saddleback (which is why I suggested horses survive).
- Maybe a few remnants of solar and wind power exist and can power small elements of their society.
- Scavenging from the 'Old world' would be a common thing.
- Dairy would have vanished, so dinosaur eggs would be a big source of protein, however many of the humans would probably have moved onto a vegan diet at that point as it's far easier to grow and protect your own food than the hunt for it (which would be very dangerous). Plus keeping livestock might attract the large predators.
- Might use small Pterosaurs to exchange messages like homing pigeons.

1-cool, I could imagine:
-domesticating small raptors, for the place of the dog and occasionally for "cock fights" like these guys-JURASSIC MONTH- Sheep-raptor
-and when they do it with larger predators, it would be like a mini colosseum.
-the saddle-back/pack-mule option would work with dinosaurs like gallimimus and Minmi (small nodosaurid)
-and I could imagine some domesticating some of the engirded dinosaurs like these guys for their meat and eggs-JURASSIC MONTH- Woolly Siccor-Hands
- I like the pterosaur idea. like maybe dimorphodon?
2-and given that this is the future of the "Jurassic franchise" I'm talking about, how might these people think about the "old world" and the fact that humans resurrected the dinosaurs, but accidentally made the "Saurian Virus"? (something that was lethal to humans, but harmless to every other animal, killing off 97% of the human population)
3- and I think I'm imaging it that there were 2400 people who survived the virus
(200 in africa, 800 in asia, 700 in South America, 300 in North America, 200 on the Pacific islands, and 200 in Europe)
but as most had to suddenly deal with a new world of dinosaurs, not to mention the nuclear meltdowns in certain places, that number dropped to 1900 survivors hiding underground for 26 years.
then as the world quickly recovered, and the dinosaurs took control, some 500 people each in groups of 40 people, ventured out and saw a new world...
so basically, most of the humans are too scared to return to the surface, whether as for the ones we discussed, are living in a lifestyle not unlike people in the "Last of Us" (but with dinosaurs instead of zombies) or even a slightly more primitive "terra Nova"
how do you think the people stuck underground would think about the world?
(they won't leave because they think the world is uninhabitable, because of the dinosaurs)

I think you really need to rethink those numbers of survivors, populations that low would die out after a generation. Taking on statistics of both intelligent predators, illness, malnourishment, and exposure those kinds of numbers would dwindle very qiuckly. I'd say you need to be looking into more in the scales of hundred thousand. These are very large continents, the Spanish flu infected over 2 thirds of the worlds current population which was the largest global pandemic humans have ever seen and that was before modern medicine. You can have to make it feel realistic. I'd say have like 60-100 per encampment, as that's a number that could realistically protect them. Plus there would be a lot of remote tribes and villages that probably wouldn't come in contact with the virus.

that works better, I was only meaning that in this world, humans are only barely surviving, so their numbers are slowly dwindling

maybe!
BTW, I have an idea a bit like this picture
Take a look-JURASSIC AFTERMATH (Return of The Dinosaurs)

Pretty neat! I say go for it and work hard on it! ^^

any suggestions for it?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I suppose I can tell you the most basic advice, keep with it! No matter what you do, keep with it. If you want to update every week, make sure you do just that.
Perhaps you can also do some research on different dinosaurs and figure out cool things about their behavior for the comic.
Whatever you do, should you start, don't go back and redo old pages. Newer pages are always going to look better then older ones. It's a bad loop to get stuck in.
I think that's all I really have without actually knowing the plot of your comic! Do you best!

thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

is there anyway dinosaurs could adapt?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I wouldn't really know. I would suggest reading and researching on the type of dinosaurs you are representing. There's been plenty of articles written on them.
