Sollicitations Décembre 2013 : Marvel Comics

Et voici les sollicitations Marvel pour le mois de décembre prochain !  on notera :

– le lancement d’Inhumanity qui va aller polluer pas mal de titres. Bien que le premier numéro de la série soit dessiné par Olivier Coipel, la présence de Matt Fraction au scénario a tendance à me rebuter, donc je vais dire pass sur ce coup.

– par contre les sollicitations X-Men me font bien plaisir entre Cyclope et Wolvie qui font équipe, la suite de Amazing X-Men, le retour de X-23 dans All New X-Men (combien on parie qu’elle roule une galoche au Cyclope jeune juste pour rendre les choses un peu plus bizarres, oh allez Cyclope amouraché d’une Wolverine féminine !!!). Par ailleurs est-ce moi où la personne en couverture de X-Men ressemble beaucoup à M ?

– côté Spidey, manifestement Peter Parker fait un retour…dont Superior Spider-Man n’a pas été mis au courant puisque le titre poursuit sa route comme si de rien n’était…

– Avengers Assemble accueille un co-scénariste en la personne de Warren Ellis, du coup il va falloir que je me remette à lire cette série. Bien joué Marvel !

De manière générale et si on exclut Inhumanity, je suis bien plus intéressé par ces sollicitations que par celles de DC !
