I don't see them doing a comic tie-in with the movies. Mainly because the movies and games don't tie-in together either. Why would there be a prequel comic for the next movie? Presuming the next movie is a direct sequel to the first, it's not needed.

That could keep a general level of interest in the franchise, since we don't know what's next for Tomb Raider. |

And as someone who will criticize Survivor's Crusade art as much as possible, Ashley A. Woods isn't a bad artist at all. Her concepts for the comic look quite good actually. Still a bit too cartoony for what a Tomb Raider comic should look imo, but really good. I think the problem here is that she probably isn't that good with managing to draw full issues in a short amount of time (besides an almost clear lack of interest, imo). But she would definitely be a good cover artist. But as for a movie tie-in comic, I'm not too keen on the idea. It worked for the games, because they were small adventures mostly independent from the games. They complemented the story, but weren't a necessary part. Movie tie-in comics usually are either too necessary or too irrelevant for their own good. Now, if a third movie never materialized (and I am saying third because we already are having the second one confirmed), and they were able to do that sequel in a comic format, then I would actually be okay with the idea. |

Is there definitely no library edition or just speculation?

I've finally found a video that shows the new "Ombibus" format: https://youtu.be/D5t-9dAFpQw
So if you're waiting for Omnibus vol.2 like me because apparently there's no library edition, that's what we're getting. By the look of it, apart from the softcover of course, it seems like it's slightly smaller than the library edition but that's fine, it doesn't look too bad. I just wished there was a library edition vol.2 though... EDIT: official dimensions: OMNIBUS: 16.9 x 2.2 x 25.9 cm LIBRARY: 21.1 x 3.8 x 31.5 cm Last edited by Grizzly Bear; 24-09-19 at 22:35. |

The volume books. How many editions are there for the classic comics and how many editions are there for the reboot comics? and what are their names? I'm kinda having a hard time finding these out because i'd like to own a few of these volume comic books :|

For the classic comics, the best thing right now is to collect the "Tomb Raider Archives". There are 4 volumes and I think they collect all classic comics except the Witchblade crossover. For the reboot comics between TR2013 and RotTR, the best thing right now is either the Library Edition (Hard cover) or the Omnibus Volume 1 (soft cover). They have all the comics between those games, plus the prequel comic to TR2013. But if you want the volumes with individual arcs, they are:
For the comics between RotTR and SotTR, an omnibus collecting them all will be released on 1st January. But if you want the volumes collecting each individual arc, they are:
Hope it helped. |
