BIG MAN PLANS #1-2 (Eric Powell, Tim Wiesch / Powell)

[Jack]

Après une période difficile vécue entre 2012 et 2013, Eric Powell revient sérieusement aux affaires. Suivant le retour de The Goon et l’adaptation de Big Trouble in Little China, l’artiste imagine Big Man Plans chez Image Comics avec son ami Tim Wiesch (Vice-Président du développement financier à Oni Press).

Décrit comme “ce qu’il arrive lorsque deux fils d’ouvriers du bâtiment font durer leur cuite”, la mini-série en quatre chapitres raconte la vengeance d’un homme qui a été humilié toute sa vie du fait de son nanisme.

[Jack]

I think that everything is written from some form of personal experience, no matter how exaggerated. I had as normal a childhood as possible, considering both the uniquely weird town and bloodstream I come from, but still dealt with shit like bullies. Being a weird, nerdy kid in a small Midwest town certainly didn’t do me any favors. I don’t really dwell on that stuff too much in my day-to-day life, but I’m certain it’s rattling around my sub-conscience.

Yeah, I grew up as a weird kid in the south. Writing the outsider role comes pretty naturally. But, despite what this first issue may lead some to believe, this series is not just about petty revenge. There is a bigger mystery at play here. The unfolding of that mystery is pretty brutal. It’s actually been depressing me to portray it as the illustrator. But, I love the story that Tim and I developed and I want to share this depression with as many people as possible. So, come along on our magic carpet ride of Prozac.

Une grosse rupture il me semble. Il en parle lui-même dans ses interviews.
