Between Tomb Raider and Rise of the Tomb Raider[edit | edit source]

Arc 1: Season of the Witch (Issues 1-6)edit | edit source

The first arc is written by Gail Simone. The artwork is created by Nicolás Daniel Selma.

In the weeks following Yamatai, Lara is suffering from survivor’s guilt, coupled with nightmares and flashbacks. Her fellow survivors are also suffering, claiming that they are haunted by “Guardians.” Several bizarre instances make Lara question her hold on reality, specific whether what she saw on Yamatai actually happened. Things take an even worse turn, when Jonah tries to kill himself and Sam is once again kidnapped by a new organization, causing Lara to return to Yamatai to save her best friend. A mysterious man named Danny saves Lara from Reyes. He seems to have knowledge of the people hunting Lara, but Lara cannot shake the feeling that he seems familiar.

Характер

Ротт создал свой стиль руководства, вдохновляясь исследователем Эрнестом Шеклтоном. Благосостояние и безопасность его команды имеют первостепенное значение для него, и он гордится тем, что инстинктивно знает, кто лучше подходит для его команды. Он также является волевым лидером, который знает, как приободрить своих товарищей и повысить их моральный дух.

Время от времени Конрад выглядит довольно бездушным, поскольку ему, похоже, безразлична гибель собственной команды, но это только потому, что он не хотел, чтобы его эмоциональность сказалась на остальных.

Конрад считает себя женатым на море. Он мечтает сорвать большой куш, который позволит ему уйти на покой, взяв большую яхту и пушествовать на ней одо конца своей жизни. Конрад надеялся, что экспедиция на Яматай станет его последней.

Reception & Cultural Impact[edit | edit source]

See also: Tomb Raider and Lara Croft in other media

Lara Croft has been massively popular since her debut in 1996. She is seen by many to be the number one heroine in gaming history, surpassing the likes of Samus Aran from the Metroid series.

Lara Croft and the Tomb Raider series currently have 6 official Guinness World Records, including “Best Selling Video Game Heroine.”

Lara’s popularity lead to her being adapted to other forms of media as well as being used in advertising for products such as Lucozade, a brand of energy drink, Seat cars, and even a line of chocolate bars.

Lara garnered status as a sex symbol of gaming, leading to her being portrayed by various models for photo-shoots. However, this has lead to some backlash from feminist groups who took issue with Lara’s sex appeal being used for marketing purposes, as well as by parental groups who objected to sexual content in video games.

In 2009 a ring road in Derby was named “Lara Croft Way” after the local council opened a vote to the public to decide the road’s name. Lara Croft Way won the public vote with a landslide 89% of overall votes numbering over 27,000.

Lara had a star on the Walk of Game in San Francisco before the area was renovated.

Lara’s classic attire of a tank top, shorts, and combat boots has become a recurring garb of female explorers within the genre, similar to how more classic movie heroes would wear a fedora and leather jacket, which is notably worn by the characters, David Jones in China, Fred C. Dobbs in The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, Harry Steele in The Secret of the Incas or Indiana Jones from the franchise of the same name.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

• Unlike other comic continuities, The Dark Horse Comics are canon to the games and do not exist in their own universe.
• Throughout the series Lara, Jonah and Sam are the only characters to have appeared in every arc, (though Sam only appeared in the Spore arc as visions).
• Jackson Lanzing (Co-Writer for Survivor Crusade and Inferno arc in the Dark Horse Comics) has stated that Originally during Lara’s toxic drug induced hallucination that Lara would come to understand that her feelings for Sam were romantic and that the page where Lara and Sam hug was suppose to be the two kissing. Phillip Sevy also said that he had drawn the image in question but by the time it went into the publishing state the kiss had been redrawn into a hug.

Character Overview[edit | edit source]

Lara Croft is an English archaeologist, treasure hunter and tomb raider. Born to an aristocratic family, Lara is generally disinterested in upper class society, finding it stifling and boring. She takes far more interest in delving into the secrets of the past and finding what is believed to not even exist.

Lara’s expeditions have lead her to search for some of the most powerful and dangerous artifacts in the world as well as uncovering some of the most mysterious places in Earth’s history.

Lara’s exploits are legendary, even garnering a reputation, though occasionally that reputation is less than flattering.

Lara is often in race against time with those who seek the same relics she does for nefarious intentions. Lara has thwarted many groups and individuals who are incredibly well equipped or powerful, including crazed religious cults, mad scientists and even gods.

Lara will often lock up some of the more powerful relics in her manor, in order to keep them out of anyone’s hands but her own and if the situation requires it, she may even destroy the artifact if need be.

Original Concept[edit | edit source]

When Tomb Raider was initially being developed, the game was set to star a character reminiscent of a mustachioed Indiana Jones, right down to attire. During development, the character was scrapped and a new character was created.

The original redesign lead to a South American Mercenary named, Laura Cruz, inspired by Swedish singer, Neneh Cherry and comic book heroine, Tank Girl. Core Design later decided to rename her to Lara and make her a hometown hero, and changed Lara’s origin to England. Going through the phone book to find a name that sounded similar to the name they had, they found the name “Lara Croft” and renamed their character, as well as giving her an upper class upbringing.
