This is a jewel of an episode as we talk all things Lara Croft Tomb Raider! Guido and Rob share their backstories with this iconic kickass hero before talking about the 90's video games, the Angelina Jolie films and of course, her history in comics including her 1997 crossover with the character Witchblade from writer & artist Michael Turner. We also wonder what's next from Lara, the connections with The X-Files, Angel and other "dark" 90's media and if Lara will ever have a crossover with Xena Warrior Princess!
