Et voici les sollicitations de DC Comics pour le mois de Juin prochain.
Et la révolution s’annonce ! DC renouvelle sa gamme de titres en profondeur pour essayer de ramener dans ses filets un lectorat qui semble chaque mois lui échapper un peu plus. En effet, comme vous avez pu vous en rendre compte, je parle de moins en moins des titres DC dans mes guides de lecture VO. La raison est simple, l’ensemble de la ligne semble s’être légèrement affaissée. Dans l’ensemble, beaucoup d’auteurs sont retombés dans des intrigues assez confortables, convenues et sans vraiment de prise de risque. Bref, le statut quo a rattrapé DC. Et l’éditeur tente en ce mois de juin de secouer de nouveau le cocotier, d’échapper à son destin d’univers partagé un peu mou…
Ainsi du côté des titres Justice League. Geoff Johns débute la très attendue Darkseid War, qui est presque en germe depuis le premier arc du scénariste sur la série. En face, Bryan Hitch lance une nouvelle série Justice League of America. Si la qualité de la prestation visuelle de l’auteur est bien entendu le premier atout du titre, il faudra voir quel genre de scénariste Hitch se révèle. ..
Alors que Cullen Bunn est déjà bien présent …partout ailleurs, le scénariste se démultiplie pour reprendre en plus Aquaman et lancer une nouvelle série Green Lantern : Lost Army. De toute évidence DC a pris en compte le déclin marqué de la franchise pour tenter quelque chose de drastique pour relancer les choses alors que tout le corps des Green Lantern se retrouve, sauf Hal Jordan, dans un nouvel univers ! Du coup, Hal bénéficie lui aussi d’un nouveau statut quo avec de nouveaux problèmes. A voir si cela va permettre de sauver la gamme GL ou si cela ne sera qu’un sursaut temporaire…
Également au programme un paquet de nouvelles séries, de nouvelles directions pour les titre WW, Superman et Batman (ou Bat-Bunny). De manière évidente, tout ne fonctionnera pas, mais au moins DC tente des choses et il était grand temps…
