Sollicitations Février 2013 : Marvel Comics

Et voici les sollicitations Marvel pour février prochain ! et autant le dire, je pense que quelqu’un chez Marvel a pété un boulard !!! et ce pour deux raisons :

– le nombre ahurissant de nouvelles séries, on doit pas être loin de la dizaine et je ne pense vraiment pas que la plupart passeront les 20 épisodes. D’autant qu’au milieu on retrouve des séries récemment relaunchées qui n’avaient même pas atteint les 20 épisodes, comme Fantastic Four, Wolverine (relancée après 13 épisodes !!!) ou encore X-Force. Tout ça alors que dans le même temps, Marvel essaye de développer tout un nouveau pan de son univers avec les inhumains. Vu le nombre de séries, inévitablement il va y avoir des morts…

– la fin de Wolverine and the X-Men avec l’épisode 42 !!! si vous avez entendu un cri de rage et de désespoir dans le lointain, ben c’était moi…Il faut dire qu’avec plus de 40 épisodes, la série était presque la doyenne de toutes les séries Marvel (regardez et bonne chance pour trouver des titres au dessus du numéro 30…). Bon soyons honnêtes, je pense que le titre sera relancé, c’est l’hypothèse la plus probable et si c’est le cas, ben tant pis s’il faut à nouveau avaler un nouveau numéro 1 si cela redonne un peu d’exposition au titre, mais mince j’aurais aimé que Marvel aille jusqu’au numéro 50 au moins…Inutile de dire que si le titre n’est effectivement pas relancé et s’arrête, il y aura du sang sur les murs…

Can he fight back his demons, or is this the beginning of a Wolverine who’s gone to the dark side?
