Storyline: Not Specified

Price: $3.99 US
Writer: Joshua Jabcuga
Artists: Stephen Mooney

Synopsis: In the prelude to next summer’s blockbuster Mummy movie, adventurer Rick O’Connell and his son Alex embark on their most dangerous adventure yet. In Burma, Rick procures a stolen jewel that has unearthed the vengeful god of thunder, Xango. Now they have to stay one step ahead of corrupt treasure-hunters and angry spirit-demons if they want to prevent Xango from remaking the world in his image!

Opinion: Watch out Indiana Jones! O’Connell of the Mummy has returned!!! The new story line is just in time for this summers’ latest new movie from the Mummy series.  It portrays his son as much older but still getting into trouble. Like every good comic it starts with some background story of the current events and some character development but it quickly gets into the fun stuff. The bad guys show up soon enough and O’Connell has to play the hero again to get of his predicament.  And a mystery unfolds to keep us waiting for the next one.

I don’t know about you, but I’m a huge fan of the Mummy series and of course this just gets me all excited about the movie coming out this summer. I think this is good timing to focus the interest of the upcoming movie on some comic stories about (maybe) something pertaining to the movie? Could we possibly get some insight into the secret production via comic book? We’ll have to keep reading and find out.
