DARK HORSE COMICS NEWS ROUNDUP

Dark Horse Comics has announced an Oct. 7 launch for Lara Croft and the Frozen Omen, a five-issue mini-series written by Corinna Bechko and illustrated by Tomb Raider comics veteran Randy Green.

Here's how the story is described:

"Lara must stop a group of cultists from causing world-wide cataclysmic devastation, and ancient ivory artifacts hold the key to both salvation and destruction! It's a race against time in Lara's new quest, filled with incredible action, dual pistols, and non-stop adventure."

"Lara is incredibly fun to write," Bechko said. "She doesn't suffer fools, she's smart, and she's talented. She's always ready for action, but she's not afraid to think through a problem either. And she doesn't ever wait around for someone else to save her. There's a lot of satisfaction in writing a character like that."

MORE PLANTS VS. ZOMBIES: Dark Horse has announced Oct. 28 for the release of Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare #1, from writer Paul Tobin and artist Jacob Chabot.

Here's how the story is described:

"Delivering a story taking place between Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare and Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2, the Garden Warfare comic has the exclusive reveal of how Dr. Zomboss conquered Suburbia. The evil-genius leader is up to a whole new set of tricks -- and this time, he's succeeding, thanks to his mighty Imp and Z-Mech! But hope remains, as our zombie-battling champs Nate and Patrice discover horticultural help from the future and the past, and Crazy Dave misses out on an ice-cream cruise!"
