Tomb Raider and how it's transmedia

So a fantastic Example of Transmedia would be Lara Croft she's been in everything, Book's, Film's, Games and Comic's. I've found that as the evolution of Lara has progressed so has her Transmedia as the popularity was increased. She's a great character that people love and can be moulded into different things to sell games and everything else. The idea of her storytelling too is so wide open, many differnt games have been made telling different stories of things, things leading onto the next one and films then being made about these stories to imurse us more with live action footage and real people. This then makes us feel the story more and more and more games come out as technology advances. The latest Tomb Raider game is such a step up from the ordinary ones and if you look at the evolution of Lara at the bottom of the page it's just nuts to say we've come here in what 17years? Imagine where we will be with another 10 and the transmedia then. Lara's on so many multia media platforms it's unreal. Transmedia comes down to storytelling and the Tomb Raider series definitely delivers that. Here's some  pictures below of the different kind of platforms of transmedia we have-
