Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Dark Horse Monsters is a 1997 Anthology Comic published by Dark Horse Comics. It's Exactly What It Says on the Tin: a comic containing a group of short horror stories (similar to Tales from the Crypt or Creepshow). It featured cover art by Bob Eggleton (from his painting "Encounter with Horns and Teeth"). Although listed as "1," it only lasted one issue, and the stories contained in it were reprints of previously published stories which had appeared in issues #33 and #47 of Dark Horse Presents.Burnout: In 2003, the city of Seattle has been leveled by vicious alien beasts. The creatures eat nuclear material, and when they attacked three new nuclear power plants, they poisoned the city with deadly radioactivity. A lone man in a suit of experimental Powered Armor, whose family had been killed by the creatures, is sent into the ruins of the city to deal with them. Story and pencils by Mike Wolfer.Jungle of the Giants!: A disheveled man is lost in a gloomy jungle filled with gigantic beasts of his own creation. He is armed only with a spear, and pursued by Ghaidragon, a vicious lizard. Story by Timothy and Benjamin Truman. Art by Timothy Truman.Mike and Viv Go to Vegas!: Somehow or another, a bickering married couple named Mike and Viv has driven through a time warp on their way to Las Vegas, and wound up in the Cretaceous Period. Stranded in their car after hitting a Triceratops, the two have to decide whether they'll set aside their differences for mutual survival, or just continue arguing. Story and letters by Jack Pollack.Monster Island: A new chain of islands has appeared off the coast of North America in 1998. Military pilots Connolly and Vasquez and scientists Dr. Stem and Dr. Brennan are sent via hovercraft to investigate, and find the islands are teeming with giant beasts. Upon landing, they quickly find themselves in far more danger than they'd originally anticipated. Story and art by Vince Mielcarek.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Badass Normal: The protagonist in "Jungle of the Giants!" Even though he's just a scientist, he is quite awesome taking out "giant" predators with a spear.
