Tomb Raider Comic Will Act as a Prequel to Next Game in the Series
A new Tomb Raider comic from Dark Horse was announced at San Diego Comic Con. The book is scheduled to be released in February 2014 and it picks up where this year’s reboot left off.
Speaking with Kotaku, writer Gail Simone said that not only will the comic’s events begin at the end of Crystal Dynamics’ critically successful game, it will also act as a prequel of sorts to Tomb Raider 2:
“We start just a few weeks after the end of the game, and this is all in continuity, it will be Tomb Raider canon, and lead directly into the sequel. This is what got me excited; we get to be part of Lara Croft history.”
Many were overjoyed with Lara Croft’s re-imagining. The fluid controls and fleshed out lead character gave this series a much needed kick-start into relevance, once again.

How's things? I'm the video guy and would love if you'd watch the things I do like Debatable and For Your Amusement. I spend the majority of my days explaining why The Wire is the greatest TV show ever and clamouring for a Pop-Punk revival(c. 1994) whilst singing in my best Axl Rose-esque voice. Do not say professional wrestling is “fake” around me or, he’ll bore you with, what I like to call, “the risks they take”. Henrik Larsson is my hero.
