Trilobite and his friends are back, and the hunt for fame and fortune continues in this hilarious graphic novel series from the bestselling cartoonist behind the Nathan Hale’s Hazardous Tales series

The beloved team of prehistoric—and hysterical—creatures is back! This wacky, hilarious, and totally unique graphic novel series is perfect for fans of Dog Man and InvestiGators.

Trilobite and his friends hope to strike it rich making a documentary about an Ice Age super pig called the Entelodont. This mega pig is a cross between a hippo, a razorback, and a bag of chainsaws. A dangerous creature feature is sure to be a big hit with their audience. What could go wrong?

Their quest for a viral video takes a chaotic turn when they accidentally create the Hog-Rocket—a flying Entelodont with a love for destruction.

Now Trilobite and company have no video, no money—and no way to stop the mayhem they set in motion.
