These stories continue Lara Croft's globe-trotting adventures as she uncovers ancient artifacts and faces supernatural threats, with art and writing from various creators who defined the character's comic legacy in the early 2000s. The collection offers a comprehensive look at a pivotal era in Lara's comic history, bridging the gap between the classic and modern interpretations of the iconic adventurer.
In "Tripped Up," Lara Croft returns to her alma mater for a reunion, only to be drawn into a mysterious inheritance tied to a chalice once belonging to King Arthur. As she confronts a spectral knight in armor, the past and legend collide in a story that blends school memories with ancient magic. Written by Fiona Kai Avery and illustrated by Drew Johnson, with vibrant colors by Jonathan D. Smith, Chad Fidler, Mark Sweeney, and James Brown, and lettered by Dreamer Design, Robin Spehar, and Dennis Heisler, this issue features a striking cover by Joe Jusko.
In "null," Lara Croft finds her peaceful retreat in Sweden disrupted when she uncovers an ancient Roman curse haunting the remote town of Kolvik. With the help of a local guide named Charlie Bascom, she must unravel the mystery before the town's eerie affliction deepens.
Lara Croft finds herself drawn into a haunting maritime mystery when her solitary sail leads her to a ghostly 16th-century pirate ship, its crew trapped in an endless loop of violence. As she helps unravel the curse binding the pirates, she uncovers a path that leads her back to her own time—and a new mission to uncover the legendary city of El Dorado.
In "Lara Croft Discovers Tribal Chieftess Burial," Lara Croft follows the trail of a long-lost chariot burial, only to be ambushed by Mr. Kagan and his mercenaries, who have their own designs on the site’s treasures. With Kagan’s men turning on him, the two find themselves forced to team up—though trust is as fragile as the ruins around them—when a deadly threat emerges from the jungle shadows.
Lara Croft returns to her alma mater for a reunion, only to cross paths with her former classmate, British Prime Minister Tony Adler, in a gathering that quickly takes a mysterious turn. When a long-dead professor’s will leaves her a legendary chalice tied to King Arthur, Lara must confront a spectral knight in armor to claim it—before the artifact’s ancient power claims her.
In a chilling twist of history and the supernatural, Lara Croft is summoned to Downing Street by British Prime Minister Tony Adler, only to be ambushed by spectral forces—among them the ghost of Winston Churchill—during a mission to recover a mystical spear in New Zealand.
In the dusty heart of the Australian outback, Lara Croft tracks a stolen spear to a forgotten frontier town, only to find the past isn’t buried—it’s armed and ready. With tension thick as the heat, she must navigate a showdown where every shadow holds a trigger and every secret comes with a price.
In a quiet corner of New Zealand, Lara Croft is drawn into the ancient rhythms of a Maori tribe, where a sacred tattoo becomes her key to the Dreamtime. Guided by Akio, she ventures into the spirit realm in search of Kagan and the fabled Dream Spear—but instead, she encounters the ghost of her lost friend, Myles, in a place where memory and myth blur.
In the dreamtime, Lara Croft and Akio search for the elusive Dream Spear, guided by the haunting presence of her late mentor, Myles. As they navigate a shifting realm where reality blurs, Lara awakens an invisible sword—her only weapon in a world where danger hides in plain sight.
