Cover by J.G. JONES
It's the start of "Raise The Khan," a globetrotting six-issue arc written by artist (and Doc Savage fan) extraordinaire J.G. Jones! When is a mummy not a mummy? When it's neither dead nor Egyptian, for starters. So what was a nearly unstoppable bruiser in bandages doing attacking the Egyptian wing of the Met in New York, and taking Johnny hostage on the streets of Cairo?

BONUS REVIEW by GARY OWENS
The Doc’s history goes back decades, and over time he has taken on a slew of abilities, from detective, a scientific innovator, to martial arts expert. He has helpers, of course, and a large budget…which all means that this comic is mostly a slugfest, as Doc tries to get to something before the evil nemesis. The fighting is the thing, you see, and all other activities is a necessary distraction to set up the next battle. Quite fast-paced, and quite two-dimensionally bland—kind of like Indiana Jones without the wit and charm. I would have preferred something a bit more sinister (though I did like the mummy), with more build-up.
