Behind the scenes[]
Though The Daily Telegraph had originally hired Simon Jowett to write Young Indiana Jones and the Mountains of Superstition and Young Indiana Jones and the Plantation Treasure, their positive reception led the British newspaper to hire Jowett to expand the two Indiana Jones comic strips to three, which Jowett had written (the only one of this type he had ever done that way) and drawn in advance, leading him to spend the afternoon at Phil Gascione's studio in Essex, England to work out how to add panels, preserve cliffhangers and even create new ones all while not deviating from the outline approved by Lucasfilm Ltd. Jowett enjoyed how Gascione brought a sense of reality to pretty much all his illustrations, no matter the story's subject or style.[1]
