Cliffhanger is another ghastly Sony Imagesoft published effort, this time based on the 1993 action movie starring Sylvester Stallone as a mountain climbing rescue ranger or something along those lines.

It’s a concept that sounds so stupid its awesome – they’re mercenary dinosaurs that are armed to the teeth for crying out loud. Concept alone might sell some books in the world of comics (where the series originated), but Dinosaurs for Hire is just another D grade shooter.
