Indiana Jones (comics) original series were published: A series based on "The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles" television series, written by Dan Barry, began in February 1992 and lasted a year. The twelve issues retold the 'Curse of the Jackal' pilot followed by six of the show's first season episodes. Barry drew the first three and the last four issues of that series, while Gray Morrow drew issues three to six, and Gordon Purcell drew the seventh and eighth issues. Sales of the later series were poor, which resulted in the cancellation of Pete Ford and Hugh Fleming's "Indiana Jones and the Lost Horizon".
