I do warn you tho, the first arc is pretty bad. Everything gets MUCH better once Rhianna Pratchett steps in with the second arc.
I'm sure people find it annoying how often I mention the comics, but I feel like those nailed Reboot Lara's characterisation better than the games do. The comics made me love the reboot character more than I already did in the first reboot game.

If your local comic store doesn't have them, you can at least buy the collected volumes from Amazon

Thanks guys.

I'll be honest, I don't think I've ever even seen a comic book store here. I'll have a look on Amazon, if all else fails I can just get them digitally.

One advice: unless you buy the Library Edition (which gathers all comics between TReboot and RotTR), don't bother spending you money with the first volume aka "Season of the Witch". It's crap.

All others are great though, even if the art in the "Survivor's Crusade" is questionable

Right, I'm a little confused. What makes up this edition? It doesn't seem very clear. Alternatively, I can get this, is this all the current comics up to date?

What would you guys say is the best thing to do?

The Library Edition collects the prequel comic to TReboot "The beginning" and the first three volumes (the ones in the picture you sent), set between TReboot and RotTR: "Season of the Witch", "Secrets and Lies" and "Queen of Serpents".

Those are not all the available comics, though. There are still the newer comics, set between RotTR and SotTR. Those are "Spore" and "Choice and Sacrifice", which are already available as their own collected volumes, "Survivor's Crusade", which recently ended its run and will be available as a collected volume in August, and "Inferno", which will start at June 13.

Right, so it's probably the best idea to get the library edition, then catch up on the current ones? I think I'd probably get the newer ones digitally as they're quite cheap and buy the next library edition when they release it (I hope they do one).

EDIT: Huh, why on earth is the digital library edition £1.49 but the physical is over £30.00...that doesn't seem right.

Yeah, that price doesn't sound right at all... :/
