L’éditeur Marvel Comics a engagé le scénariste Al Ewing (New Avengers, The Ultimates) pour s’occuper d’une nouvelle série digitale labellisée Infinite Comics ; sa deuxième après Iron Man : Final Frontier.
Ewing collabore pour le coup avec les dessinateurs Jefte Palo et le vétéran Karl Kesel.
L’histoire est consacrée à la saga évènement Civil War II et plus particulièrement à Ulysse, le jeune Inhumain qui s’est découvert la capacité de voir le futur, prédisant même une catastrophe biblique à venir sur laquelle la communauté des super-héros se divise.
Heureusement qu’il peut compter sur le brutal Karnak, maitre de la Tour de la Sagesse, pour l’aider à mieux comprendre son don… Ou pas !
La mini-série Civil War II : Ulysses débute ce mois-ci sur Comixology. Elle sera ensuite compilée sur papier en août.
La couverture (ci-dessus) est signée Francesco Francavilla.
[quote]I’m pretty sure fans of Karnak will enjoy this – he gets some good moments, and we get to see inside the recesses of the Tower of Wisdom. And hopefully this series will satisfy anyone who wants to know how Ulysses learns how to use his strange powers in time for Civil War #1.
Plus we have the awesome Karl Kesel on storyboard duty – one of the industry’s true greats – and he’s got a lot of experience with this relatively new way of making comics, and all kinds of amazing ideas about how to push things forward in terms of storytelling. I might have a few ideas in that direction myself, too. So people who like Infinite Comics – or just comics in general – will get a big kick out of this series.[/quote]

Description: He’s been pushed, he’s been pulled, he’s been scared deathless, history is a nightmare from which he is trying to awake, and Ulysses will have no more of it!! In this prequel to Civil War II, Ulysses and Karnak finally come to blows!
