AVENGERS ARENA #1-18 (Dennis Hopeless / Kev Walker, Vitti)

Hopeless est plutôt bon dans la création de personnages. Il le prouve encore avec la révélation de son dernier numéro qui n’est pas le personnage qu’on pourrait croire.

Une des meilleures séries Marvel. A la différence des autres, il se passe quelque chose de définitif pour les personnages. Jusqu’ici aucun des personnages morts n’était très populaire mais quand on va arriver aux Runaways…

c’est pas un peu glauque comme série ?

Aussi surprenant que ça puisse être, pas plus que les autres séries.

Le 13ème numéro de la série Avengers Arena à paraitre en aout devrait ravir les anciens lecteurs de la série Avengers Academy. Concocté par le scénariste Christos Gage et le dessinateur Karl Moline, ce numéro verra le Docteur Pym, chef des Avengers A.I., se mettre à la recherche de ses anciens étudiants qui ont mystérieusement disparu.
