Updated every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday except Canadian holidays
The comic does not update on every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday apart from Canadian holidays. The official archive shows a break from December 19, 2025 to January 5, 2026, which skipped non-holiday weekdays such as Monday, December 22, 2025 and Monday, December 29, 2025.
Full reasoning
The schedule claim is too absolute.
On the official Dinosaur Comics archive, the entries jump from December 19th, 2025 straight to January 5th, 2026. That means there were no comics posted on several intervening Monday/Wednesday/Friday dates, including Monday, December 22, 2025, Monday, December 29, 2025, and Friday, January 2, 2026.
Canada's federal list of general holidays includes Christmas Day (December 25), Boxing Day (December 26), and New Year's Day (January 1), but not December 22, December 29, or January 2. So the statement that the comic is updated every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday except Canadian holidays is incorrect as written.
A more accurate description would be that the comic usually updates on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, but it also takes occasional breaks beyond Canadian holidays.

printed in three collections
This understates the number of collected print books. Official sales pages show at least four separate Dinosaur Comics collections, not three.
Full reasoning
The article says the comic has been printed in three collections, but the official/publisher sales pages document four separate collected books:
- The Best of Dinosaur Comics: 2003-2005 AD — listed on Ryan North's official merchandise page.
- Dinosaur Comics fig. d: Dudes Already Know About Chickens — listed by TopatoCo.
- Dinosaur Comics fig. e: Everybody Knows Failure is Just Success Rounded Down — listed by TopatoCo.
- Dinosaur Comics fig. f: Feelings Are Boring, Kissing Is Awesome — listed by TopatoCo.
Because there are at least four distinct collected editions, the phrase "printed in three collections" is factually incorrect.
