"There's only one woman capable of tracking down the world's rarest artifacts: Lara Croft. Armed with her iconic twin pistols, Lara crisscrosses the globe in search of adventure"-- Provided by publisher
Stačí říct jméno: Lara Croft. Nejznámější vykradačka hrobů se po krátké epizodce v Íránu, která zahrnuje krádež cenného náhrdelníku, divoké přestřelky a plavmý skok z útesu skrz vrtuli přímo na žebřík visící z helikoptéry, nechává najmout na pátrání po legendární a dávno ztracené Medusině masce. Hluboko pod hladinou Atlantiku zjišťuje, že nejde po tomhle artefaktu sama - před ní je bývalý milenec a současný neoblíbenec Chase Carver a ještě někdo, kdo jde po krku jak Laře, tak jejímu věrnému sluhovi Comptonovi. Cesta, vedoucí až vysoko do nepálských Himalají je lemována nebezpečími a šokujícími překvapeními...
"This volume collects Tomb Raider #16-#24 and #26-#34, originally published by Top Cow Productions between September 2001 and November 2003."--Title page verso.
Having reduced legions of console games players to wide-eyed, slobbering wretches, Lara Croft, the voluptuous star of the staggeringly successful Tomb Raider computer game, now makes a triumphant debut in comics. The good news is that Ms Croft's epic and explosive antics are perfectly suited to the printed page, brilliantly conveying its enticing mix of Indiana Jones-style thrills and breathless action. And, for those concerned with important details, artist Andy Park has ensured that this incarnation of Lara is just as "anatomically dynamic" as her pixellated counterpart. The Saga of the Medusa Mask collects the first four-issue series, in which Lara and her faithful butler Harcourt embark on a search for the fabled Medusa Mask, supposedly worn by the mythical monster herself. Danger, of course, lurks in every corner and even the most unexpected place of all. Dan Jurgens (Superman) has written a clean, fast-paced adventure, superbly realised by Park, which works very much like a James Bond film. With exotic locales and bold action sequences, Lara has ample opportunity to behave absurdly heroically, guns blazing in each hand, in classic Bond/Indy fashion. So, this is an excellent, undemanding read and will certainly increase anticipation for the forthcoming film adaptation. --Danny Graydon
