5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Entertaining Indy Comic, September 16, 2008
This review is from: Indiana Jones Adventures Volume 1 (Paperback)
I really enjoyed this comic, and hope there are more to come. The storyline is kid friendly, with a line or two geared toward adults (would go over the kid's heads). The illustrations and back and forth between characters embodies the feel of the Indy movies (especially Raiders), and is an entertaining read for kids (10 and up?) and adults alike.

4.0 out of 5 stars Norse mythology and Indiana Jones....a good blend., July 22, 2008
This review is from: Indiana Jones Adventures Volume 1 (Paperback)
This was a very refreshing installment to the Indiana Jones world. The characters were strong, recognizable, and accurate. The story was funny, child friendly, and peppered with enough racy humor and interesting history details to appeal to a wide range of adult readers as well. I especially liked the timeline (which would be before Raiders) and also Indy's first run in with the Nazi's.

I look forward to the next volume in this satisfying new series that made up for the somewhat dismal film.

Also I noticed the author has another comic coming out in the fall, I think I will be checking that out as well.

3.0 out of 5 stars Darker Indy, January 4, 2009
By 
N. J. Halink (Nieuwerkerk Yssel, Netherlands) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Indiana Jones Adventures Volume 1 (Paperback)
I'm a big Indiana Jones fan and I like this comic a lot but to be honest it doesn't resemble the Indy I know from the movies. He is a bit darker in this story, he goes after the prize, uses whomever he can and doens't think of the consequences.
A great story to read but not a typical Indy!
