  4. George: 'Old One Eye' was the 'Hag Tyrannosaur' anti-hero of FLESH, a very old school 2000AD strip about Cowboys going back in time to hunt dinosaurs for meat. She spawned a whole dynasty of Tyrannosaurs that have appeared in numerous 2000AD stories over the decades. Most notably SATANUS in Judge Dredd and GOLGOTHA in the ABC Warriors, son and grandson respectively.

  5. This explains why I didn't get it. I thought that maybe the Cyclopes outstretched left hand looked a little like a Dimetrodon or something, but not enough to be deliberate.
