Originally published in comic This is what Prince Valliant should have been. Cadillacs and Dinosaurs pretty much mashes up post apocalyptic stories with fantastic traditional illustration to give you something new. Replace brave knights with old auto repairmen-cum-shamans, and swap out armies of enemy soldiers with terrifying thunder lizards - but use the same art style. This book takes you back to the kind of art Hal Foster does without all of the stuff that puts you to sleep in Prince Valliant.
This is what Prince Valliant should have been. "Never the two shall meet" must go through Schultz's mind as a backseat theme to all the gun-toting, murmuring, and panic as dinosaurs consume people, brains spill out of heads, and cars go screaming across the desert in escape of the monsoon.more Alas, that only happens with actual humanoid horny toads, and not the heroic characters themselves. Schultz gives us so much of Hannah’s bust, ass and crotch with killer looks between she and Jack – even a well-placed hand by Hannah near Jack’s crotch – that you’d expect horny toads to pop out of a panel at any moment. Queen Hannah and Cadillac Jack brave the environment, reptiles, the weirdo goon squads, and their disparate world views to converge on the secret weapon. Alas, that only happens with actual humanoid horny toads, and not the her A stylish graphic novel in the post-dystopian vein.

Xenozoic Tales more than any other comic is chock full of mush-mush. If your library doesn't have any of Marc Shultz's Xenozoic Tales you really should track some down! I read in a book by Bruce Campbell that director Sam Raimi likes to put as much "mush-mush" in every scene he films as possible, where mush-mush is described as anything cool that can jazz up the scene in some way (dolly zooms, point of view shorts, high speed sequences that are played back backwards as to look otherworldly).
