Sollicitations Juin 2012 : Image Comics

C’est juste moi où il y a une pelletée de bons trucs qui sortent en TPB en juin chez Image ? Regardez vous-mêmes : le 1er TPB de Fatale de Brubaker et Phillips, ce qui m’arrange car comme je l’ai dis je préfère lire cette série en TPB, un TPB de savage Dragon, le 3e de Morning Glories, encore un TPB de Walking Dead, le second de Super Dinosaur, … je sais pas trop pourquoi mais je sens que les ventes de TPB en juin seront dominées par Image.

Côté single, je suis ravi de voir que les auteurs de Carbon grey ont décidé de se sortir les doigts du derrière pour sortir une nouvelle mini-série, à ne pas manquer le Saga de Vaughan dont le 1er numéro m’a assis par terre comme peu de comics ont réussi à le faire ! le manhattan projects de Hickman est aussi à ne pas rater (c’est un pur délire ce titre).

TODD McFARLANE RETURNS TO SPAWN AS WRITER AND COVER ARTIST!

No longer.
With his past finally coming into focus and a full understanding of the man he once was just out of reach, Jim embraces the full might of his horrific hell-born powers to piece together a mystery that has ties to the very core of the Spawn universe.
Old enemies will return. New dangers will emerge. And events woven within the complex fabric of Spawn’s rich mythology will begin to coalesce.
What happens from this point forward has been 20 YEARS IN THE MAKING!
