I attended several inking workshops by Mark Schultz in college. He wasn't in love with the name Cadillacs and Dinosaurs but he said that it was a godsend when it came to making the toys. He said one of the first prototypes they showed him was horrible, basically a box with wheels and he had little to no say in it. But since Cadillac was in the title for the cartoon, GM got involved and said absolutely not and they had to produce a much better looking toy. He also said he was amazed at how close the animation and production schedule cut it to airing the cartoons. Some were just finalized hours before it was set to air.

I love the arcade game. Played through it more times than I can count. It's just so much fun. Also love the show. I'd love to see it get remade. It would be awesome to see a more modern "mature" animation of it that better fits with the original material. Though honestly for a cartoon, it was epic.

Editor's Note: When you refill your tank of gasoline, you are pumping petroleum, which is derived from fossilized flora and fauna, into your motor vehicle. This may result in your car, if a Cadillac brand automobile, having traces of a dinosaur, a form of fauna from centuries ago, inside of it. We are sorry for the confusion.

The concept art for Fallout 1 (man/women in blue jumpsuits over green mutants/mist) was inspired by Xenozoic tales according to the artist. I always felt there was a lot more inspiration from this in the Fallout universe then its original creators ever let on (I know the sources they publicly stated), there is a very high degree of overlap in plots, ideas, style.

Cadillacs & Dinosaurs sounds like the name of a rock band. There was a weird animated series by the name of Van-Pires. The premise was a group of teens who hung around a junkyard got turned into various vehicles, whose purpose in life was to battle a group of vampiric monster vehicles who had an insatiable thirst for motor oil. Definitely the weirdest cartoon I had ever seen.

The first time I heard about Cadallacs and Dinosaurs was when I took $5 to the laundromat to play some games. It was 1993, so they must have just got the thing. I beat the game, took the change home and that was the last I had heard of Cadallacs and Dinosaurs...until today...almost 30 years later. I remember having fun and I was able to beat it with less than $5, which was weird because I had never beat an arcade game before or after that, lol. I had no idea there was a show, comic and candy bars...I just thought it was a crazy Japanese arcade game.

@@HeadCannonPrime I think the show would have done much better had it come up a bit later when adult animation started gaining mainstream acceptance. Today they cold do something like Castlevania and have the dinosaurs actually eat someone every now and then. I think even kid-friendly Camp Cretaceous today has more of a body count than the Cadillacs & Dinosaurs cartoon. The 90s were kind of lame in that regard.

@@lutherheggs451 It's not just about not dying, they couldn't do anything back then. People complain about "censorship" today, but 90s Spiderman literally couldn't even punch a bad guy. The show wasn't disliked at all. It was awesome and clever and had everything anyone likes. I was a kid and I loved it I have at least one of the toys. (I'm from SA, so we didn't get ALL the toys), I know other people close my age who watched it and had some toys. It probably wasn't liked _enough_ for being such an expensive show. The art and animation really was top-notch, so it was probably on the expensive end of cartoons for a show that didn't sell amazingly in merchandise. At least compared to other shows with much cheaper animation but extensive and extremely popular toys of the time. The toys were manufactured by Tyco, because they had the rights to the Cadillac brand, but they specialized of course in cars and made rather weak and not very varied action figures. If they had had done something like Kenner, and gotten a line more similar to Jurassic Park's the story might have been quite different. Besides I'm talking about the franchise, not the cartoon. It wasn't a "children's" franchise to start with. That's... exactly my point. The comics have politics, ecology, spirituality and seedy characters. They _made it_ a childrens cartoon because back then all cartoons were expected to be for children. But that's no the case today and we wouldn't have to kneecap the story or expect it to rely on toy sales to stay afloat today. That's what I'm saying.

I doubt we'll ever see it come out in any other official capacity considering that was a real one-off sort of situation. Again technically you're right (and I knew that when I was writing it) But like I said considering the circumstances I just don't count that.

I might even track down one of the first collected omnibus or which ever collected graphic novels are available. Back in 1993 I remember seeing Cadillac and Dinosaurs on tv but I wasn’t interested in watching the cartoon at the time. Thanks to Dan I now know it’s available to watch for free on Tubi and I definitely plan to check it out since I missed it the first time around.

Looking sharp dude! I ran into this as a kid off and on at random. Went to see Jurassic Park and saw this in the theater lobby. I ended up playing this the whole time rather than see the movie. My old man was PISSED! XD Then, my buddy Anthony picked up a random comic issue of it and I started seeing the show on TV. Always a trip.

The tv series needs to be on blu ray and shout out to Mark Schultz. Xenozoic Tales is one of the best comics ever produced and deserves a bigger audience.

Dad has some of the action figures but never saw the cartoon, he would see advertisements for it set for a later time on Saturday morning only to have a sports or news program that time spot.

Imagine your comic ending because the artist got so damn detailed it took him too long to make an issue. Few weirder ways to end a run.

From what I understand, what Schultz been working on isn't exactly a continuation, but more like a "standalone" story set in the times before Jack and Hannah were exiled from the City in the Sea. Supposedly, he'll start to work on a continuation (and possible finale?), maybe in the form of an illustrated novella, after this one is released. It's taken forever for this new graphic novel to come out, I remember it as if it was originally set to be released in 2019, then 2020, then the pandemic probably caused more delays, we are halfway through 2021, and no word yet on when it's coming out.

Cool thanks so much for this video. I loved the cartoon but where I lived it was on really early in the morning on a Sunday. I randomly found the arcade in Korea about ten years ago and played through it. It was pretty fun. You're right, this was a cool franchise that deserved more success than it got.

By the time this cartoon was airing ,even though I was already a fan of the comic,I didn't watch it. I was in my late teens and sleeping in each Saturday. But in 96 I was in a local Dollar Tree store and they had gotten in a case of the action figures from Tyco. I bought a full set of the figures for myself,couldn't pass them up at a buck a figure. Then bought every Hannah Dundee figure they had. Cause at the time they were considered rare and selling for 15 a figure. Sold off the extra Hannah figures and used the profits to fund my trip to a convention.
