Jurassic Park is an American film series which also consists of novels, comics, and video games people on a series of disastrous attempts to create a theme park of cloned dinosaurs. Michael Crichton's novel, "Jurassic Park ", was brought to life in 1993 with Universal Studios film adaptation. It's success as led to three sequels; The Lost World: Jurassic Park, Jurassic Park III and Jurassic World.

 

From 1993 to 1997 Topps Comics published comic adaptations of Jurassic Park and The Lost World: Jurassic Park, as well as several tie-in series. Continuing the adventures begun in the screenplay by Michael Crichton and David Koepp... from the novel by Michael Crichton.

 

Story/Spoilers:

In issue #1, "Aftershocks!", Jurassic Park scientists manage to clone dinosaur DNA found in amber, reproducing dinosaurs in the modern day. Then they make Jurassic Park an island where tourists could view dinosaurs in their native habitat, but the dinosaurs escaped, turning a theme park into a horror show. This series continues the story of Jurassic Park, picking up a few days after the park was evacuated. The dinosaurs had begun to breed, and Doctors Alan Grant and Ellie Sattler went back to find the eggs of the raptors, the most vicious of the dinosaurs. Unfortunately, five young raptors had already hatched. Worse, an unknown group had hired a hunter to steal the live specimens for their own means…


Finally, in issue #2, "Dark Cargo!", As the first issue ended, The Hunter had killed the mother Raptor, and was transporting Alan, Ellie, and the five young Raptors to his offshore ship and then to an awaiting cargo plane. Alan and Ellie soon find themselves caged next to the restless caged Raptors while being transported to their new owner in Peru. Alan tires to cry out to a ship's crew member that, "the Raptors are trying to pick..."  but is sedated before he can finish... "their cage lock."  Upon awakening Alan and Ellie find their lives in peril once again as the now... escaped Raptors... savagely create carnage throughout the airborne aircraft. Expect a major cliff-hanger at the end ... only to be picked up again in the next Jurassic Park mini-series, Raptors Attack.
