October 31, 2003, Runnemede, NJ – Following the success of such previous exclusive comics like Witchblade: The Demon #1 by Mark Millar and Jae Lee, Tomb Raider: Scarface’s Treasure #1 by Geoff Johns and Mark Texeira, and The Darkness Prelude by Paul Jenkins and Jae Lee comes the next DF/Top Cow Exclusive Comic – Tomb Raider: Sphere of Influence by Kevin McCarthy and Joyce Chin!

“Kevin [McCarthy] sent me a great proposal featuring Lara Croft, and we were working with Top Cow and Harris on their crossovers with Joyce Chin around that same time,” explains Nick Barrucci, President of Dynamic Forces. “So we put Kevin, Joyce and Tomb Raider together, and the Sphere of Influence was born.”

McCarthy, writer of the upcoming “Kavalier and Clay” comics based on the Pulitzer Prize winning novel by Michael Chabon, sends Lara Croft to the mean streets of New York City, where she rescues a precious object, returning the prize to its owner. But, at a Sotheby’s auction later, Croft finds unusual symmetry with her earlier adventure, and a new challenge waiting for her! All along the way, Tomb Raider has never looked better under the artistic eye of Joyce Chin!
