Probably the best sketch of a page I've ever done :p #wip #fanart #fanfic #fancomic #comics #comicsky #tombraider #laracroft

Very crude sketch of a tomb raider comic page.

Easter Eggs? In my fancomic? More likely than you'd think... #wip #fanart #fanfic #fancomic #tombraider #laracroft

I knew making the big lore dump panel in the style of a Byzantine mosaic mural was the correct idea! #wip #fanart #fanfic #fancomic #tombraider #laracroft

Photo of Clip Studio Paint showing a drawing inspired by Byzantine mosaic murals, depicting two bearded men holding some sort of red light, in front of a golden cross in a dark blue background. The man facing the left is wearing 10th century Byzantine clothing, while the man from facing the right is wearing 12th century Arab clothes. Both men are inspired by Jacob from Rise of the Tomb Raider.

First big lore dump, featuring a very Classic TR cameo ;) One of the most fun things while writing was doing complementary research on the history of the important regions from Rise's lore, and find real events that complement it quite well! #fanart #fanfic #fancomic #tombraider #laracroft

Blurry picture of the thumbnail for page 15 of chapter 1 of a tomb raider fancomic.

In it, Lara Croft and another character who seems to be an older man, seem to discuss the historical evidence for a myth that seems to involve two different mysterious men, one in 10th century Byzantine clothes, while the other in 12th century Arabic clothes.

Because what's a fictional movie sequel without some fictional product placement? :p #wip #fanart #fanfic #fancomic #tombraider #laracroft

Lara Croft holding a shotgun and saying "Shame." In a very nonchalant way.

What's that, Lara? You're about to face a mysterious boss? Eh, pretty sure you've fought plenty of bears by now, you'll be fine! (First boss battle in Tomb Raider: The Crypt of Chronos!) #tombraider #laracroft #boardgames #gaming

Let's play the first chapter of "Tomb Raider: The Crypt of Chronos" I think I will do a proper review of the game on Reddit, once I play it for a few levels :) @tombraider.com @iconiqstudios.bsky.social #tombraider #laracroft #boardgames

Okay, I had to at least show the boxes from the Tomb Raider: The Crypt of Chronos boardgame! Can't wait to do the proper unboxing tomorrow! @iconiqstudios.bsky.social @tombraider.com #tombraider #laracroft #TheCryptOfChronos #boardgames #unboxing

Why yes, Lady Croft, I got you LR package! I wonder what's inside... 👀👀👀 (actual unboxing coming perhaps tomorrow, because I'm moving and other things are unfortunately more urgent 😅) @iconiqstudios.bsky.social @tombraider.com #tombraider #LaraCroft #TheCryptOfChronos #boardgames #unboxing

Sometimes you finish a page and you feel really proud of yourself because: a) you love the way it looks; b) you realize you're halfway through the 1st of your 6-chapter comic. That's twelve whole pages! Really hope I keep this mojo going! #wip #fanart #fanfic #fancomic #tombraider #laracroft

Grayscale cutout of Tomb Raider fancomic page, where Lara is shooting a gun. You can only see part of her face, being illuminated by her gun. Lara seems to be indoors and wearing protective ear muffs.

JRui_draws@jruidraws· Jun 20

In case anyone was wondering if I'd give Lara her dual pistols given my fancomic is based on Rise of the Tomb Raider... 😉😉😉 #wip #fanart #fanfic #fancomic #tombraider #laracroft #tombraider2018 #aliciavikander

Photo of unfinished comics panel of Pammy and Lara Croft's best friend from the Alicia Vikander-led Tomb Raider movie. The art is fully inked but is still in black and white.

Lara's best friend, originally portrayed by Hannah John-Kamen, is asking "Lara is that a gun!?!?" with a shocked expression. Pammy, looks at her with a mocking expression and says "You should see her with two!"

"Masters of the Universe" 2026 verdict: If act 1 was tighter, and act 2:1 better developed, this would have been a camp masterpiece. Instead, it's a flawed, but still highly enjoyable movie: when it delivers it delivers hard! If you want some good dumb fun, I highly recommend!

What do you mean "STOP! THAT! TRAIN!" debuted at 89% on Rotten Tomatoes? Only 18 reviewers, but still! Are you telling me that a movie made just because Drag Race is popular might actually be *good* good? Not "so bad it's good" good? Let's see how the score evolved, but colour me surprised...

However, one thing that I found curious is that, while we see three of the four main areas of the game in the latest trailer, we only see human enemies in one of them: Greece. First, in the screenshot above, then in the Palace Midas reveal shot. 4/12

Let's talk about a different type of Tomb Raider Legacy of Atlantis: the inclusion of human enemies beyond Larson, Pierre, the Cowboy, the Bald Man/Kin "Kold" Kade and the Skater Boy/Jerome "the Kid" Johnson. (Warning: very long thread!) #tombraider #laracroft #legacyofatlantis 1/12

First time in a capsule hotel... Yeah, this is weird... 😅

Post your favourite film from the year you turned 18. I mean, it's Perfect Blue with Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis. What's not to love? Honourable mention: Toy Story 3 and How to Train Your Dragon. 2010 was a great year for animated blockbusters!

My god, what a movie! Genuinely top-tier feel-good sci-fi, to the point I think even people who are not fans of the genre should watch it Excellent performances, script, visuals and OST Mark my words: we're assisting to the birth of a new sci-fi classic with Project Hail Mary

Tomodashi Life is great because it's the only game where me and my best gal pal Lara Croft can talk about our shared love of raiding tombs :) #gaming #nintendo #tomodashilife #tombraider #laracroft #selfinsert

Finally read Tomb Raider Sacred Artifacts issue 2 and... I think it's an issue that I'll only have a proper opinion once we have the full story. Might be foreshadowing too much the main mystery, especially if you know your Tomb Raider lore... 1/3 #tombraider #laracroft #comics #darkhorsecomics

Tomb Raider fanart depicting two Lara Crofts, mirrored both horizontally and vertically. The one on the left is drawn with her "Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis" design, while the one on the right is drawn with her "Tomb Raider Catalyst" design. They are both in the exact same pose, looking to her left while aiming the correspondent pistol towards the same direction. The background of the piece is gold and silver, also mirrored both horizontally and vertically. The gold side is more prominent on the bottom right side of the piece, while the silver part is more prominent on the top left side.
