Iguanodon. Thumb spikes are cool, it was super important to defining dinosaurs in the 19th century, and the 1990s Dinosaurs magazine made it look awesome fighting off a bunch of dromaeosaurids.

Rummage through the University of Galway's archives to find paperwork from Tolkien's time as an external examiner in the 1940s? www.thejournal.ie/tolkien-nui-...
