Et voici les sollicitations Marvel pour le mois de mars prochain marquées par le lancement de Age Of Ultron, qui sera à lire essentiellement pour les dessins de Bryan Hitch, plutôt que pour les répercussions sur la continuité puisque Bendis a quitté les titres Vengeurs et que les épisodes sont achevés depuis des mois ! Pour l’occasion paf 3 épisodes d’un coup, sur les 10 que comptera l’event, j’avais prévenu que c’était écrit par Bendis !
Du côté du Marvel Now on continue de lancer de nouvelles séries, notamment et enfin le vrai premier épisode de Gardians of the Galaxy, avec cette question : pourquoi McNiven a refait les designs des persos qui étaient très bien ? Nous avons aussi une nouvelle série Wolverine, avec une belle variant de Olivier Coipel
Enfin comme précédemment annoncé, petit crossover entre trois titres mutants, puisque X Termination traversera Astonishing, X-Treme et Age of Apocalypse, sans doute pour essayer de réveiller des séries assez peu vendeuses…

One last heist. That’s what they all say, right? Just one final score, and everyone can retire and take up fishing. Thing is, the jails are filled with super villains who thought the same thing, and got busted. But the Heat’s in a jam. He’s run up the kind of gambling debt that — if he can’t pay it back in cash — will be paid in blood. Nobody wants to see the most beloved supercrook of all time rubbed out by the mob — especially his biggest fan, Johnny Bolt. And Johnny’s got a plan to help the Heat and make all his buddies disgustingly rich at the same time. Unfortunately for Johnny’s recruits, they have to head to Spain and rob the world’s most notorious super villain blind. And that’s where things get tricky. Collecting SUPERCROOKS #1-4.

Everyone wanted to be a super hero. The next logical step for Kick-Ass? Join a super-hero team. But Kick-Ass’ former ally, Red Mist, thinks heroes are passé. Red Mist will be the world’s most notorious super villain. When he targets Kick-Ass’ family, can Kick-Ass stop Red Mist and his team of villains?
