Indiana Jones Adventures Volume 1

You know, I was watching an episode of Young Indy on the History Channel last night (I still need the DVDs) and I was thinking how I miss the Raiders march, and how, while I like the history angle, I would liked to have seen more things from Indy's past, like meeting Sallah and falling in love with Marion and all sorts of cool stuff.

Hopefully these Indy Adventure books will do something like that.

Still, I'd love to see an issue where he is with Short Round!

Have any of you seen the Heritage card sketches? thoes designs would be prefect for an animated series.

I agree. It's the year 2008 and we've never gotten an Indy animated series. That's a crime.

A story with Forrestal? Oh, man, this is going to be goooood!!! (even though Forrestal is spelled incorrectly.)
Gotta love that line, "at least not 'til this storm lets up." Straight out of Mystery of the Blues!:whip:
I'm not crazy about the artwork but am looking forward to the story.

Again, yodazone, THANKS so much for these previews!:hat:

Rob Williams (new Indy comics writer) over at the Dark Horse forums said that the "Forrestall" character also has a mention in the "Tomb of the Gods" series too!

The new Indy comic line sounds like it's going to deliver big time to Indy fans!

Is the release date June 18 (stated on the DH site as the publishing date)? The Diamond comics website doesn't mention Indiana Jones Adventures as being in comic shops on June 11th. Its also not mentioned as a June 18th upcoming release.

The Dark Horse site isn't totally reliable when it comes to their listed dates. Sometimes they're 4 months off on some titles too...agh!

Next Monday's Diamond lists should tell for sure if the comic will come in on the 18th or the following week.

But the posted 3-page art preview is a good sign that it will at least be released within the month......hopefully with the "Tomb of the Gods" issue #1 shipped quickly after!

Okay, I'm getting excited after seeing that 3 page preview.

Not crazy about the art style but it's not bad by any means (kinda reminds me of Hellboy) and it's certainly leaps and bounds ahead of that first bit of artwork we saw. Notice that they still haven't got Harrison's eye color right, though brown is better than blue.

The story has much potential. I am officially hyped! (y)

It's really frustrating when:

(A) The original release date of the comic is September.

(B) The release date gets changed to June 18th.

(C) Newsarama releases an interview which confirms a release of June 18th.

(D) Diamond Comics has no release info for June 18th.

(E) I told my son he'd have the comic when he got home from school today.

Diamond Comics hasn't been very reliable at all recently, claiming release info on some comics that don't get released until the next week or so. That happened to me with Hellboy: Darkness Calls. Diamond had info for a May release, but it didn't ship until June, and the week it DID ship, Diamond had no release info.

We'll just have to see.
