No sense in fighting it, so I won’t even try to resist the urge to say that IDW is excavating JURASSIC PARK  for an all-new comic series, some nine years after JURASSIC PARK III hit theaters.  It's been even longer since all those Malibu tie-in comics for the first movie, hasn't it? Anyway, this mini-series beginning in June will be written by Bob Schreck and drawn Nate Van Dyke and it’s going to star the two kids from the first movie when they’re “all growed up.”

It’s been 13 years since little Tim and Lex Murphy escaped from the island of Isla Nublar, and recent public opinion has reversed,with the world clamoring for authorities to re-open Jurassic Park! While Tim and Lex try to preserve the Hammond family name, a secret 
deal is hatched to open a new park! This time they’ll get it right… right?

 
It’s kind of funny that this has popped today because I was watching the original movie a couple weeks ago and thinking about how the license was pretty loose enough to do some interesting takes on it. I’m hoping IDW goes balls-to-walls bonkers with the idea given the freedom they have.   It’d be awesome to see them take the idea to strange extremes like Frank Miller and Walter Simonson’s ROBOCOP VS. TERMINATOR comic did.   Maybe maybe maybe…

they could even set up a crossover of their own with that forgotten comic series CADILLACS & DINOSAURS.   Remember that?   I think it would have more potential to cause chaos than even an amber-encased mosquito with dinosaur DNA in its belly.

Every regular cover’s going to be by Tom Yeates and the variants will be done by a revolving door of top names. (Appropriately, given my mention of ROBOCOP VS. TERMINATOR) Frank Miller for #1, Arthur Adams for #2, Paul Pope for #3, Bernie Wrightson for #4 and Bill Stout for #5. 
 
 
 
 
 

Meh... I bet it be just another Turok but with less in it..

It's sounds kind of interesting and I loved the books so I might have to check this out

yEAH! CADILLACS AND DINOSAURS! WOHOO!
 
I would like to re-pimp that comic one day yeargh! I loved Jack tenrrier and his sexy partner. Also a kickass cadillac and an Allosaurus pet ftw!
 
Never liked the JS3 concept tough, for me it doesn't exist.

I don't really get how people "hated" Tony after/during Civil War, if anything it had humongous character development for him.  The amazing thing about Civil War is that there really was no villain (in my opinion), just two leaders trying to do what they think is the best for their people.  Heck, I'd go so far even as to say that without CW Tony would still be a second stringer.      

oh whoops I'm SUCH a loser, I meant to post that in the Iron Man article above.  Sorry.  >.>

IDW. all i need to hear. i will be reading this.

I always wondered what happened to Tim and Lex, I loved those movies and quite frankly the theme song is still stuck in my head

The books were better then the movies
Wait Frank Miller well my hopes for this book were just shattered

Yay! Dinosaurs!

YAY! =D

as long as it has a "Walking Dead" feel to it, this cant go wrong.

I'll give it a read - but only because I like dinosaurs.

Ill read it, its Jurassic Park!!! XD

I don't know how they're going to make a comic out of this it's like do they want the people that end up on the island to live there or something????

This sounds pretty cool.

Man eating dinos!!!! Hell yeah. 

I've been a massive Jurassic Park fan since I was six. I'm definitely going to pick this one up.  
 
Dinosaurs rock my socks.

Cool man! I loved the JP books and loved the first two movies. I'd read it.
