It's a brilliant concept: working with the same six panel images, create an ongoing comic strip involving a group of talking dinosaurs who are more-or-less friends. With special off-screen appearances by God, the Devil, and other guest stars! How long can you keep such a thing up? Ryan North has been doing it since February 1, 2003!
This isn't a comic strip for kids, which might be the target audience you would expect for a strip involving talking dinosaurs. It's clever, witty, and sophisticated, and packed full of references to pop culture. Check out this example from the "Mirror Universe" story arc:
Ryan North includes hover text unique to each strip, a related joke that appears if you use the site to compose an e-mail response to a specific strip, and even embed code for each day's strip
