Right, this is a shameless comics crossover to get two hot, kick-arse babe characters together. Anyone have any doubts about that? That being said, though, it is still a fun story, if extremely lightweight and disposable. So if you fancy some crossover adventure that won't mean much, this is for you, otherwise, forget it, except for Turner collectors.

Once in a while you get a pairing in comics that just works magic. Example, Dennis O'Neil and Neal Adams introduced us to the Hard-Travelling Heroes pair of Green Lantern and Green Arrow. Here in this book, we have the pairing of the BIGGEST (no pun intended) icons of '90s video games and comic-book heroines - Tomb Raider and Witchblade - AKA Lara Croft and Sara Pezzini respectively.
The writing is really nothing to shout about. The plots are also paper-thin. This is the kind of story that makes people look down on the medium and pronounce it "comic-booky". But the artwork by Michael Turner is worth the price of admission. Top Cow puts in a lot into their comic art - especially in the top-notch coloring to complement Turner's ultra-detailed pencils.
This book contains all the Tomb Raider-Witchblade Crossovers published so far (except the Fathom issues and the recent ENDGAME storyline). It also marks the very first comic-book appearance of Lara Croft/Tomb Raider before she got her own series. Get this book if you like to see gorgeous girls hanging out and kill several demons while at it.

I have seen the TR movies and a few WB episodes and I was curious to see those 2 characters interacting.As a matter of fact, I had never read any comics related to them at all! So I plunged in with the two of them in one adventure(actually 3).
I enjoyed the art the most especially the ink/coloring by Joe Weems and J.D.Smith (hence the title of my review). It has the feel of a visually upscale comic.
The stories themselves are a bit repetitive - artifact- monster released- bang bang- monster dies- everybody happy ! The snappy dialogue between the two protagonists however saves it mostly, for me.
I was expecting a projection of every teenage boy's fantasy (see the cover art for example)...and it was, sort of. It certainly doesn't suffer from being too cerebral.
So look at the cover, and that's what you get - beautiful well-proportioned girls - a lot of guns/one mysterious magical weapon - a lot of attitude and beaucoup d'action.
This is not the best comic out there, but it does entertain and I did look , er read it more than once ;-)
3 stars.
