The comic centered on Jack Tenrec, a "mechanic" who can talk to cars, and Hannah Dundee, a scientist and diplomat.

Cadillacs and Dinosaurs is a multimedia franchise that began as an American alternative comic book series created by Mark Schultz. Set in a post-apocalyptic future where humanity has retreated underground to escape a global catastrophe, the story explores a world where the Earth has reverted to a prehistoric state, populated by dinosaurs and other ancient life forms.
