Tim Goodyear (born 1977[1] in California) is a U.S. minicomics publisher, distributor and comics artist. He has been a contributor to Tim Root's Crappy Comics, Sean Aaberg's PORK (magazine),[2] and has compiled several collaborative zines.

Teenage Dinosaur

Under the Teenage Dinosaur imprint, Goodyear publishes absurd and[3] weird[4] comic books.

Teenage Dinosaur Comics Compilations

With Sparkplug Comic Books and Tugboat Press , Teenage Dinosaur has published three major minicomics compilations, which have been released every Free Comic Book Day since 2008.

Nerd Burglar was printed on vellum. It features short works by Bobby Madness, Elijah Brubaker, Chris Cilla, Sarah Oleksyk, Aron Nels Steinke,[8] Jennifer Parks, Tim Root and Shawn Granton. The cover was drawn by Chris Cilla.[9] Although free, due to the work by Bobby Madness and Chris Cilla the compilation now goes for $3–9 on eBay. With future editions, the publishers left a note in the indicia requesting that people charge "Free-99" for their joint Free Comic Book Day offerings.[10]

Bird Hurdler features a preview of Ariadne auf Naxos volume 2 by Julia Gfrörer,[11] a Pop Gun War universe tale by Farel Dalrymple, a Thanksgiving story by Lisa Eisenberg,[11] a brief Theo Ellsworth jam, and very short semiautobiographical minicomic stories by Zack Soto, & a disturbing[12] vignette by Andrice Arp. The front cover was drawn by Arp,[13] with the back cover by Gfrörer.
