$3+ a month: You can read tomorrow's Dinosaur Comic today! This BASICALLY turns you into a superhero. Sometimes I change punchlines and stuff, so this is a window into comics you may never see otherwise! Plus you'll gain access to my SECRET STREAM that only backers get to see: early information on new projects, sneak peeks, that sort of thing!

$10+ a month: SECRET STREAM, tomorrow's Dinosaur Comic today, plus a monthly Q+A hangout! Patrons only: for a half hour I'll take questions on writing, comics, career(s) stuff: anything! Think of it as an interview where you can ask the questions you want.

$100+ a month: Haha wow you are insane! INSANELY AWESOME, THAT IS. The benefit of being a cartoonist for 11 years is the tons of cool stuff you've collected in that time. I'll send some to you! Every month you'll receive some artifact from my life in comics: signed books (sent to a good home, obviously), 3D printed version of my skull - whatever it is, it'll be a surprise and also unique!

Hi, I'm Ryan North! I'm a cartoonist and writer and I'm really tall and I can't draw. For eleven years now I've been writing Dinosaur Comics! They look... a little something... a'like this:


Honestly, they all look like that because it's the same pictures every day. But with different words! Exciting words! HILARIOUS WORDS. You can read them all online for free right now at qwantz.com! You can also read them at dromiceiomim.us (she's one of the main characters, what what).

As this Patreon proceeds, we'll unlock milestone goals, which give things like free comics and books to all current backers.  The sooner you become a patron, the sooner you get these awesome things!


I've done lots of really fun crazy projects in the past ( B to the F where I reviewed each page of the bonkers novelization of Back To The Future, To Be or Not To Be where I turned Hamlet into a choose-your-own-path adventure), and your support here is really supporting making THOSE happen as well.  The more patrons here, the more time I'll have for looking around, imagining something that's awesome and doesn't exist yet, and making it happen.

Most of what I've created is online for free (with of course a few  notable exceptions!), and I am a strong proponent of the "put it online and see what happens" school of creative endeavours. I'm excited to see what the next steps will be!
