There isn’t a man, woman, or child walking this earth who hasn’t heard of Indiana Jones, the greatest adventurer of all time. When archeologist Indiana Jones finds Leif Ericsson’s battle axe, taking it back to his university is a non-stop adventure. Indy and his companion Bill Lawton, a seafarer who blames Indy for the loss of his leg, are rescued from the iceberg they were stranded on for weeks by a French passenger ship. But once on board ship, Indy and Lawton fall into the machinations of a pair of professional swindlers, one of whom is pretending to be Indy’s brother in order to sell fake artifacts.

Yet another twist in the plot places Indy, Lawton, swindlers, and axe adrift on a rowboat, plunging right into the Sargasso Sea – the graveyard of lost ships – where pirates will undoubtedly be eager to plunder Indy’s precious cache…

Story/Spoilers
In issue #1, “A Watery Grave”, Indiana Jones sails the high seas in search of a lost Viking ship! Having signed on with a band of pirates, Indy has placed his life in the hands of his old nemesis, Captain Lawton, who blames Indy for the loss of his leg to a shark years earlier. But sharks are the least of anyone’s worries when the vessel becomes entangled in the mythical graveyard of ships — the Sargasso Sea!

Next in issue #2, “Sea of Troubles”, Dead men may tell no tales, but they also don’t like anyone to mess with their gold! Indy’s adrift with a band of brigands on the treacherous Sargasso Sea, the graveyard of lost ships. The still waters are an archaeologist’s dream, but the treasures of the Sargasso have already been claimed by legendary protectors, restless spirits who just might turn out to be more than legends after all!

Next in issue #3, “Lawton’s Revenge”, The Sea Witch has been killed and all fingers point to Indy! What he desperately needs now is an ally and a place to hide. He may have found the former in the person of Cairo, a femme fatale who holds the key to clearing his name. But the latter might not be possible in the legendary graveyard of ships, where treachery is omnipresent and escape is hopeless!

Finally in issue #4, “Blood on the Water!”, The Sargasso Sea lies far behind, and Lawton and his seafaring brigands have filled their ship’s hold to bursting with ill-gotten loot. There’s nobody to stop them from taking their booty back to dry land to spend it. Nobody, except for Indiana Jones, the beautiful femme fatale known as Cairo, and the dreaded Sea Witch, the rightful owner of the pilfered treasure — assuming the three of them can take on an entire ship of bloodthirsty pirates!
