Dr. Elias Thorne

Dr. Elias Thorne is the main protagonist of the 1988 Topps trading card series Dinosaurs Attack!, as well as its 2013 IDW comic adaptation, and the posthumous overarching protagonist of the crossover card series Mars Attacks vs. Dinosaurs Attack!.
He is a Temporal Physicist and Space Station Director who had created a device known as the TimeScanner, which would allow humans to study past humans, artifacts, and animals by sending projections of them onto Earth. However, an evil force takes over the device, tampering with its functionality after the Prometheus probe shoots a laser down on the Earth. This causes many prehistoric animals from all across the prehistoric eras to materialize, and attack the humans on Earth.

In both the cards and the comic, Elias is a man of average build with black hair. He is always seen wearing a blue shirt with a black tie and a lab coat.
