Reptilis Rex is a webcomic by "William Tallman".
Hollow Earth is real and "Reptoids" live Beneath the Earth in secret. Or at least they used to. Some unknown catastrophe forced a large segment of reptoids to migrate to the surface and reveal themselves to human society. Unfortunately, reptoids aren't well accepted by humans and treated like second class citizens. This brings us to the story of Krel Irontail, formerly the Emperor of the Reptoids currently in hiding from the rest of his race along with his slave Snive. After being fired from his previous job at a Burger Fool, he is now employed at a hardware store under human reptoid culture enthusiast Cyrus Murdock.
This webcomic provides examples of:[]
- Beleaguered Assistant: Snive.
- The Caligula: Given his general attitude, Krel was probably one of these. Especially given the fact that it's hinted that he's responsible for the collapse of Reptoid society.
- Conspiracy Theorist: Kevin.
- Fan Boy: Cyrus.
- Fantastic Racism: Not only do reptoids have to deal with human bigotry but also District 9 levels of institutional discrimination: Reptoids can only find employment with a human sponsor, can be legally hired at half a human's wages and the penalty for killing a reptoid is only 6 months probation and community service.
- Jerkass: Krel.
- In Medias Res
- Rambling Old Woman Monologue: Janet is fond of this.
- The Reptilians
- Voluntary Shapeshifting: Contrary to the cliché reptilian Conspiracy Theory, Reptoids do NOT have this as an inherent power. Instead, they use their shapeshifting pet mutos as masks.
