Et voici les sollicitations de DC Comics pour le mois d’août prochain ! qui fait la part belle aux annonces attendues :
– le lancement de Multiversity par Morrison, qui va voir le retour du multiverse dans une mini de 6 épisodes illustrés par certains des meilleurs artistes DC. On attend en particulier celui dessiné par Frank Quitely. Voilà un projet qui était dans les cartes depuis un moment qui voit enfin le jour. A voir si DC a laissé carte blanche à Morrison, si celui-ci a pu bien se lâcher au vu des possibilités offertes par des mondes parallèles et bien entendu les répercussions sur le DC Universe…
– l’annulation d’une demi douzaine de séries, les moins vendeuses de l’éditeur en danger depuis un moment comme Superboy, All Star Western, Birds of Prey, Pandora (qui va pouvoir retomber dans les ténèbres de l’oubli collectif), Phantom Stranger et Batwing. A noter que contrairement à ce qui est noté dans ces sollicitations, World’s Finest n’est pas annulé pour l’instant (selon un communiqué de DC en tout cas…).
Sinon c’est un peu business as asual, alors que DC semble se concentrer sur septembre pour se refaire une santé (et moi faire une pause…). On notera tout de même :
– que sur WW, on sent que l’on approche vraiment de la fin du run de Azzarello et Chiang. Il semble désormais évident qu’ils achèveront leur prestation avant la fin de cette année…
– que l’intrigue Doomed qui traverse les titres Superman, comme promis par les auteurs, continue encore au mois d’août…Ce qui me fait un peu peur car cela fait quand même 4 mois sur 3/4 séries différentes…tout en étant superbement ignoré par le Superman de Johns…
– dans Justice League, Johns réalise une partie de la prophétie annoncée dans son dernier épisode de Green Lantern, avec l’arrivée de Jessica Cruz, première Lantern humaine femme de l’histoire…(oui parce que jusque là les anneaux se concentraient sur les hommes tous situés aux USA…)

The original graphic novel is now in paperback! Twenty-five years ago Tom’s father, Wilson Taylor, devised his subversive literary masterpiece. Now the blueprint of how a father gave his son vast power in order to accomplish a greater scheme is revealed. Partly told through Wilson’s own journal entries, juxtaposed with Tommy’s swashbuckling deep sea adventures with his trusty companions Peter and Sue, the story is at once a prequel and a parallel story to the ongoing series.
