Bought on a whim mr113 The book was ok, a traditional Indiana Jones adventure. It wasn't about being sophisticated, but evoking the classic adventure story of 30's serials and Indi movies. I was mainly sold on the cover art and the good likeness of Harrison Ford. Usually I won't even bother w/a comic or graphic novel if I don't like the style of the art, no matter how deep the story is. The last chapter of the book had a different artist, which had its pluses and minuses, but over all, it was still pretty good.. Good story, but This graphic novel is a compilation of the four comic books that were released under this name following '08's "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull". The story is really good, but, for some reason, Dark Horse changed artists for the fourth issue. So, the last fourth of this story looks WILDLY different from the rest of the story. Jarringly different. The female "lead" looked so different in the last section of this story that I did a double take to see if I were still reading the same story. For some reason, her nationality changed!I still give it four stars because of the quality of the story. And the artwork in part. when it comes to graphic novels i'm pretty easy to please Benstarbuck i like INDY and enjoyed both sets of artists featured in this book . if i was permitted to i would give this book 3 1/2 stars out of five . i don't want to harm its rating by being petty and just give it 3 for subjective reasons . in the first three quarters of the book i was able to recognize actor DENHOLM ELLIOT as INDY's pal from university . that's pretty good illustrating . my minor quibbles would be that as a non-teen in my mid forties the story was a bit age inapproprite for me . additionally , i think it would be an excellent idea for the creative team to spread INDIANA's stories over 5 or 6 comic books so as to add more bre
