Sorry about that guys, I was waiting for the Raven to be back up. I recently had a death in the family, and that took up about 3 weeks of my time. Comics are going out tomorrow when I get back to work. Thanks to everyone for their patience!

No problem and no rush Jimmy. I am sorry to hear about your recent loss and hope all is as well as can be. Tend to your personal life first and ship the comics when you can. Priorities.
Again, my sincerest apologies. They all went out today and I stuck a couple extra goodies in everyone's package. Thanks for being so patient, everyone. You should've gotten confirmation emails that your item has been shipped.
I got the package in a few days back, but actually just picked up my mail today. Thanks so much Jimmy. You didn't have to send all that, as your circumstances were understandable. Thanks so much for everything.

Do be advised the Indy tale is quite short (I know you know already, but it bears repeating), but I trust you'll enjoy it anyway.
As you are already aware, I finally got my hands on it last week (2 months later). It's a light-weight tale with good artwork/colours and an ending that made me groan & roll my eyes...However, it is a short, kiddie story and that's understood. I'm very pleased to have it in my collection so I give my deepest gratitude for your goodwill, Crack!

That's a reasonable assumption. Guess we'll have to wait a few more months for #2 to find out!
How does this comic rate on the continuum between the awesome "Indiana Jones Adventures Vol. 1" and the craptacular "Tomb of the Gods"?
I say its worse than Tomb of Gods only because, due to its brevity, there's no real character development or much of interest. Its a quick, whiz-bam, simple tale, as Stoo said: "kiddy".
While it features the same art style as IJ Adventures, Volume 1 was by far a better tale/adventure.
It's an old joke, maybe even moral to an Aesop fable that's been cheaply turned/adapted into a four page comic. They even harvest an uncharacteristic plot element fromt he Star Wars/Indy crossover...

Six pages, actually, if you count 'em. (No need for an abacus.) Anyway, I wouldn't rip too hard on this. "Cheaply"? It is a FREE comic for kids and I didn't expect anything more.

That's how memorable it is! I'm not ripping, it's exactly as you characterize it...
I wasn't expecting much, or counting on it ...being much. Just hoping.

Thanks to yodazone's post in the thread below, we now know that Vol 2 begins in 1931...so it's a good bet that "Temple of Yearning" fits the 1930/31 timeframe. Good call, BrodyIsDead! (I'm sure DIrishB has already noticed this as well.)

Here's the whole thing. Maybe the dip switches released a hallucinogenic drug, and giant killer clowns don't actually exist in the Indyverse...
It's interesting that as much as it appears like a "giant killer clown", it appears to be based on the "Yak" Guardian Statue outside the Royal Temple, Wat Phra Kaew in Bangkok:
I got the e-mail. Thanks!
