Et voici les sollicitations DC pour le mois de septembre prochain ! ou le mois de l’arnaque ! et oui après les épisodes 0 et le vilain month, cette fois l’éditeur essaye de nous avoir avec des épisodes situés 5 ans dans le futur en lien avec le weekly Future’s End. Oui je sais je suis dur avec l’initiative de l’éditeur sans l’avoir lu, mais pour une bonne raison : il reproduit exactement la même stratégie que les années précédentes, ou presque :
– noyer le marché sous un flot de tie in
– aucun de ces épisodes signés par les équipes régulières …sur ce point on dirait que l’éditeur a retenu la leçon, puisque on retrouve au moins le scénariste régulier sur les séries principales de l’éditeur (à part Geoff Johns qui a l’air de s’en foutre)…
– la plupart produit à la chaîne par des équipes pressurées pour produire un max de choses en un minimum de temps. ça par contre je pense que va le retrouver sur pas mal de numéros au niveau des dessins
– dans le cas présent, comme cela se passe 5 ans dans le futur…nous pouvons considérer qu’en fait nous avons là plus de 50 what if qui n’obligent DC en rien. En somme vous pouvez oublier ces épisodes une fois lu…
Les années précédentes, le résultat avait été plus que consternant et je vais donc faire l’impasse cette année…un mois de pause DC, ou comment nous prouver que l’on peut vivre sans eux…
Sinon, on pourra toujours lire Multiversity de Morrison qui débarque enfin ! après des années à nous l’annoncer, le scénariste a manifestement pu compléter le projet. A l’origine Quitely devait signer un épisode, donc à voir si l’ensemble du projet sera dans les temps…Dans les trucs que l’on attendait plus, nous avons aussi la conclusion de Superman Unchained…Jim Lee aura donc trouvé 5 min pour terminer ses planches..si il les a bien produites bien évidemment…

New York City. Forty-year-old Kevin Walker is a successful trader. He’s incredibly rich. He has a young, sexy wife and a son he adores. He has everything. Until…
The mysterious man known as the Surgeon walks into Kevin’s office. He takes a seat and tells Kevin to write a suicide note. Trembling but obedient, Kevin does what the Surgeon says. Then, at a word from this well-dressed figure, Kevin jumps out his window and falls fifty stories to his death.
Thus begins THE NAMES, an 8-issue miniseries by writer Peter Milligan (HELLBLAZER, SKREEMER) and artist Leandro Fernandez (Wolverine, Punisher: Max). THE NAMES is a dark, contemporary thriller set in the world of Big Money: hedge funds, leveraged buyouts, market raids, flash crashes. High-end finance that can ruin entire economies, run by a cabal of the world’s richest (and sickest) people.
Now, it’s up to Katya Walker – the beautiful and deadly wife of the late Kevin – to take on this hidden power structure and find out who killed her husband, and why. No matter what it takes. No matter who she has to kill.
It’s The Wolf of Wall Street meets Kill Bill. And heaven help the 1%.

Going out to every nation,
For a new issue of FABLES taking wing.
We thought we would this time,
Do the entire blurb in rhyme,
Just to see if anyone actually reads this thing.
In this issue, Bigby resurrected,
Quite more monstrous than expected,
Is challenged by a golden-armored knight.
They throw down in the city,
And won’t it be a pity,
If lives are lost during the bloody fight.
As our special gift to you,
We make this promise true,
That the actual issue won’t be all a-rhyming.
‘Twill be done in the best prose we know,
About Bigby and his Fabled foe,
And their vicious battle fought with expert timing.

Graphitti Designs proudly launches their new, large-format hardcover book series with BATMAN: KELLEY JONES GALLERY EDITION. For the first time ever, Dark Knight fans and collectors will have the opportunity to see and own museum-quality reproductions of memorable Batman art…as it was originally conceived by the artist. Printed in color from high-resolution scans of the actual original art, this first entry in Graphitti Designs’ new Gallery Editions line replicates the look, feel and attitude of the artwork. Every page is reproduced at original size on heavy paper stock, capturing the artwork – stray pencil marks, whiteout, coffee stains and all! The pages are alive with all of the subtleties and nuances one would expect from investment-quality original comic art.
BATMAN: KELLEY JONES GALLERY EDITION is the first in a series of deluxe, hardcover books from Graphitti Designs that faithfully reproduces the original art from select, key DC Comics series. This inaugural volume contains the covers and interior pages from BATMAN #515 through #525, minus the interior of issue #520, which Kelley did not draw. These stories are written by Doug Moench, with most pages inked by John Beatty.
Graphitti Designs’ Gallery Editions reproduce the look, feel and attitude of the original art as it was originally created by the artist. Though it appears to be printed in black and white, the contents of these books are sourced from high-resolution, full color scans taken directly from the artwork. Each high-quality, Smythe-sewn hardcover book captures every detail of the art at actual-size, and are printed at 200 line-screen on a rich, heavy paper stock. Replicating the original art experience is our goal. Our Gallery Editions are the next best thing to holding the original art in your hands – and easier on the wallet, too!

Pour ma part je trouve ça déjà plus alléchant que le Vilain’s Month, ne serait-ce que pour tous les titres écrits par Charle Soule ou Jeff Lemire qui semblent proposer des choses intéressantes qui pourraient bien déteindre sur la série hebdo (notamment le nouveau Green Arrow) voire sur leurs propres séries (enfin des révélations sur la présence sur Terre du Martian Manhunter, et de nouveaux avatars dans Swamp Thing !). Le numéro de Green Lantern n’est sans doute pas non plus à manquer pour les fans puisque Venditti semble vouloir y révéler des choses sur Relic. On notera également qu’il y a une volonté de lier un peu tout ça avec plusieurs histoires réparties sur deux numéros, bonne idée d’utilisation des séries traitant d’un même personnage.
Y a quelques autres trucs qui personnellement me branchent, notamment le retour de Booster Gold qui a l’air de s’être perdu dans le monde de Kamandi ou encore le mariage d’Harley et du Joker ! En voilà une super idée d’exploitation de ce concept des 5 ans dans le futur !
Les couvertures 3D me paraissent être un beau gadget pour augmenter les prix (même si l’une ou l’autre présente de l’intérêt), mais du côté des dessins en eux-mêmes je suis totalement sous le charme de celle de Batman & Robin où Pat Gleason et Mick Gray ont représenté un Batman que Bruce Timm ne renierait pas !
Y a aussi des trucs qui puent rien qu’à voir les couvertures ou lire les sollicitations, je pense notamment à Bitgirl dont le design est immonde.
DC me lasse. Je me pose souvent la question de tout arreter chez eux…
The Wake qui sort deja en HC pour 25$ me fait regretter d’avoir achete les singles!
En regle general je me pose de plus en plus la question d’arreter d’acheter des singles.. 🙁
Pour les mini-séries si tu n’es pas pressé les TPB et HC valent souvent plus le coup.
Je vais sûrement me prendre le booster gold mais j’avoue que le concept 5 years later ne me branche pas des masses.
Pas de justice league 3005 du coup ?
