Wow! I was beignning to think the death of anything original in Hollwood was truly here, but this looks interesting!
Neozoic - Dinosours become prey (http://www.superherohype.com/news/topnews.php?id=5987)
In "Neozoic," a debut title from publisher Red 5 Comics, there's nothing special about an 80-foot-long brachiosaurus lumbering past a group of human travelers. It's been going on for millions of years.
However, if those same humans hear the blood-thirty roars of a T-Rex, then it's time to call the professional super-hunters of the Predator Defense League. Armed only with swords, arrows, warrior cunning, ruthless precision and a lifetime of training, these exceptionally skilled athletes keep the citizens of the walled city of Monanti from becoming a dinosaur's breakfast.
"Neozoic" is the creation of Lucasfilm-veteran Paul Ens, writer of the fan-favorite "Star Wars: Evasive Action" series. Like most boys, at an early age Ens was inspired by dinosaurs. "And like most comic writers," he adds, "my childhood influences never left me. Dinosaurs thrilled me first from the pages of science books, then in entertainment like 'Land of the Lost,' 'Godzilla' and 'Jurassic Park.'"
Unlike most dinosaur-themed fiction, where ill-prepared and unsuspecting modern-day humans are thrust together with pre-historic beasts through some contortion in time, "Neozoic" imagines an Earth where the dinosaurs escaped extinction altogether. As a result, the entire history of the human race unfolded side-by-side with the giant beasts, leading to a society greatly different than the one we know today.
