Copyright 2002 www.fandom.com

[ April 25th 2002 ]

With the new team of writer John Ney Reiber and penciler Randy Green taking over Tomb Raider with issue 21, Top Cow has adorned the issue with a black cover with gold foil at no additional charge. The original cover penciled by new series artist Randy Green will be a second cover stapled beneath the all black cover.

Top Cow president Matt Hawkins said: "The black cover with foil worked well for Witchblade Issue 54 and we received a lot of positive feedback from retailers. We don't intend to make this an ongoing theme for our books, we simply wanted to do something to call attention to the new creative teams on Tomb Raider and Witchblade." Shipping today, Tomb Raider Issue 21 takes Lara Croft high in Tibet to the Taktsang Ravine where, she searches for the Black Mandala.

Top Cow marketing director Frank Mastromauro said of the PS2 release of Angel of Darkness: "We're working with Eidos and several video game magazines to draw attention to the comic series with several special promotions both inside and outside of the comic market."
