    Comic Book Chronology?

    Can anyone point me to a chart that puts the Indy comics in their chronological order? I just got hold of 'em all & I want to read them in order. Thanx!

    Spielberg Interview = Less Violence In KCS

    As many people who grew up on Spielberg's films noticed, for better or for worse, LC & KCS are far less visceral and explicitly violent than RotLA or TOD. I think this section of a recent interview with SS from Vanity Fair goes along way in explaining why. He doesn't think a child under the age...

    I Kinda Like The 'Alien' Now

    Having seen the movie a few times now, and letting it sink in, the Entity at the end has grown on me. I couldn't put my finger on what the crystal bodies reminded me of - I finally have: they look like x-ray photographs of skeletons! That's a very cool idea, and subtle. I also love the way their...

Campbell fills in many of the narrative gaps, provides about a dozen scenes not found in the film, and fleshes out...

    Original Indy Type Pulp Story!

    I'm such a fan of the old pulps I thought I'd try writing a homage. This is a very raw First Draft of the teaser sequence. But tell me if you guys like it at all. * * * * PRELUDE THE SCREAMING DEATH’S HEAD! The American stood suspended off the floor by two thugs, while a third laid into him...

    CGI Backlash

    I find it hilarious: back in the 1990's there was a huge backlash against 'traditional' effects. CGI was the only way to go! Critics & fanboys went on and on about how superior CGI was to 'old fashioned' special effects. Stop motion in particular came in for a severe drubbing. Early internet...
