Realistic (strip)
I get like this with movies sometimes, to be honest. Like, "No, I don't care if he's the best martial artist in the world! You don't win a fight against twenty, grown, able-bodied dudes!"

its a years old post but imma comment anyway: depending on the mythology, Dragons are generally supported Purely by Magical Means. However their are some Lore's wear their are various Biological explanations for a dragons physiology. - Size; to support their massive frames, in most of cases the dragons skeletal structure is actually blended with an extremely strong form of metal. akin to something like Mithril, Adamantium, or Deep Iron. the same metal usually replaces the typical iron content found in normal human skeletal and macular systems with the metals properties often being attributed the the aforementioned systems. - Fire Breath: the most common is a type of bile sack in the chest that produces a napalm like substance they is ignited by various means as it is partly aerosolized and exhaled. - Flight; ... ... ok well mostly the explanation for this is usually "Because Dragon. So F@k You.". however their are a couple wear its attributed the the mystical properties of the fantasy-metal content of their bodies and the sheer power of brute force... but mostly its left up to a mystery that even the author gave up trying to explain no matter how 'Realistic' they try to make it look.
flight of dragons the movie went over this.
For the dragon to fly, it'd need gas bladders inside it to make it lighter while simultaneously helping to support its weight, and if it was hydrogen gas it'd be super flammable so he might be able to have a flamethrower. You'd just need to be really careful where you stab, it might explode in your face.
XD XD XD hahahahaha excellent
I agree completely! as if 19 of the ninja master would dance around in a circle waiting their turn at you. sheesh. and what's with the hero allowing the villain to get ANOTHER sword?! no, you kill them while they're unarmed!
XD
The movie 300 was based on real event. There was an event where they used three professional soccer players against an entire team of kids. Yeah skill whallops numbers
well, the movie left out a LOT of the troops that were with Leonidas and his Spartans and died with them. also, they made the Persians out to be a lot stranger than they actually were. the actual history is so much better and more interesting than the movie.
If you want to go even further you can remove his arms, since it's evolutionarily more likely for a vertebrate to turn its forearms into wings, instead of having to evolve an entirely new set of limbs.

I don’t think he’s big enough to collapse under his own weight yet. Look at Dreadnoughtus
Look to the bumblebee, naysayers
Repeat after me. Magic. It's the MacGuffin.

I love these types of comics- I really liked the Jurassic park one where you made the dinosaurs too
Love the ending.
Hysterical! I was all good on the sequel 2010 movie Until they they added the second moon and then I was like no I would mess up the oceans and climate and…that would not work!
Dreadnaughtus and other sauropods have something to say about "too big before it collapses"!
Is the “you’re” misuse in the last box on purpose?
Beating the narrator so hard his spelling and grammar falls apart. :) "Punctuation" is misspelled too
You must be a riot at DnD campaigns.
I really want you to make Primal fanart.
Lol brilliant!
I was going to say that we can get at least as big as a woolly Mammoth but then someone brought up dinosaurs... so yeah...
For me it's always the little things. I can accept dragons, magic, whatever! But someone gets shot with a bullet, no matter where, and doesn't fall over screaming in agony? Hell no!
Someone falls from slightly too high up and is able to run immediately??? Someone pets a wild wolf???? Someone says something slightly inaccurate???? I'm FOAMING AT THE MOUTH IN ANGER!
Win a fight against twenty grown, able-bodied dudes? It's happened. Well-documented. Some of the members of the NYPD's Street Crimes Unit did. Of course, only half a dozen of the cops involved survived to retirement. The historic Savinien de Cyrano de Bergerac's fight against 100 seems to have actually happened, but he did it by backing up across a long narrow bridge so they only came at him one or two at a time and got tangled up with the bodies of the earlier attackers. Rubitsky held a pass single-handed against the Japanese Army in WWII killing a documented 600 men in one night. Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction
Pterosaurs with 13m wingspans flew. Non-flying dinosaurs got really big. And as for the fire, just because nothing in our history happened to evolve it doesn't mean there aren't plausible ways it could happen even if some of them mean sequestering platinum in their (modified) throats and growing some truly interesting gut bacteria.
Too funny!
