The Mystery of the Great Pyramid, Volume 2: The Chamber of Horus (Le Mystère de la Grande Pyramide, Tome 2) by the Belgian artist Edgar P. Jacobs was the fifth comic book in the Blake and Mortimer series, first published in Tintin Magazine.
Captain Blake having been assassinated at Athens Airport, Olrik seems to have won the first round. A furious Mortimer swears that he’ll never stop trying to avenge his friend. He goes on the hunt, but information is scarce. Sheik Abdel Razek, an old man with mysterious powers, protects him against Doctor Grossgrabenstein’s crew. The doctor is a devoted Egyptologist who has undertaken excavations not far from the Great Pyramid. Strange happenings occur and Mortimer may sometimes feel like he’s losing his way in this investigation that will lead him into the darkest depths of the Great Pyramid.
The Mystery of the Great Pyramid, Vol. 2 was first published in English by Les Editions Blake and Mortimer in 1987. In 1990, Comcat Comics planned to publish it as Secret of the Great Pyramid, Vol 2, but the company went under before it could come out. It was published by Cinebook Ltd in January, 2008.
