Dans le cadre de sa campagne de publicité pour la seconde vague de titres « All New » Marvel Now, l’éditeur Marvel Comics dévoile au compte-goute plusieurs « aperçus » des nouvelles séries qui sortiront à partir de janvier 2014.
Il semble que la plupart de ces « teasers » fassent références à la première promo « Inhumanity » qui présentait les futurs héros que l’éditeur mettra en avant pendant l’année 2014.
Pour son deuxième projet régulier chez Marvel, le scénariste NathanEdmonson (Who Is Jake Ellis?, Ultimate Iron Man) fait équipe avec le dessinateur Phil Noto pour ce qui semble être une nouvelle série régulière sur l’espionne Natasha Romanoff, alias La Veuve Noire.
Plus d’informations sur « Atonement » seront dévoilées lors du New York Comic Con d’octobre prochain.
[quote=« Nathan Edmonson »]The first few issues are fairly stand-alone. The reader will quickly learn, however, that something bigger is unfolding, something that will start to rear its head at the end of the first arc. But don’t miss issue #1. It’s special and we’re damn proud of it.
This ain’t your momma’s Black Widow. And this ain’t a book you’d expect to find in the halls of Marvel NOW!, in the same way that « Hawkeye » was such a surprise: so be ready for something unexpected![/quote]
Je ne suis pas admirateur outre mesure du travail de Phil Noto, mais les quelques planches qu’on peut voir dans le previews de novembre ont l’air très bien, très élégantes.

“The Finely Woven Thread”
You’ve seen Black Widow as an Avenger and even an Agent of Shield. But on her own time she searches for atonement for her past as a KGB assassin—in ways of which those teams just wouldn’t approve. From the darkest corners of the Marvel Universe, Nathan Edmondson (Who is Jake Ellis?) and Phil Noto (Thunderbolts, X-23) bring you a new ongoing series as gorgeous and mysterious as Nastasha Romanov herself![/quote]

• In fact, it’s so good, that you won’t want to wait another month for the next issue.
• And you won’t have to![/quote]
Les planches sont magnifiques, en plus de voir un bien joli *storytelling * à l’oeuvre ; très efficace tout en étant très travaillé esthétiquement parlant.
Pour ma part je trouve également les couvertures de Phil Noto très au-dessus des autres.
