CONTINUE TOMB RAIDER

Kotaku
has published an interview with comics luminary
Gail Simone who, along with publisher Dark Horse,
is working on a new Tomb Raider comic. The story
will continue where Crystal Dynamics left off
with their Lara Croft reboot.
"I chose
to do this series solely because I loved the game
so much, so we're definitely keeping the tone
of the game. I've always loved the classic, cool
Lara Croft, but this feels like her origin story,
like we're seeing her before she becomes the icon,
and it's very compelling to me. The storytelling
in the game hooked me instantly.
"The
way I see Lara now is, she's not after treasure.
She's not really after thrills. She's a questioner,
she's an explorer. She wants answers. It's true
that the earliest games didn't really give deeply
emotional motives to the characters, but damn,
they were fun. And ground-breaking in several
ways."
