L’éditeur DC Comics dévoile cette semaine la nouvelle fournée des diptyques liés au crossover Convergence qui paraitront lors de la deuxième semaine d’avril.
Les héros décalés de la Justice League Internationnal sont confrontés aux héros sévères de Kingdom Come sous la plume et les crayons de Ron Marz (Convergence: Batman & Robin) et Mike Manley.

The levity of the JLI team collides with the severity of the world of Kingdom Come.[/quote]
[quote]You have to find the middle ground, and here it’s the idea that the situation the JLI find themselves in is pretty serious. They’re in Metropolis, and they’re trying to hold together this city that’s been cut off from everything. I tried to get in as much of the character-oriented stuff that people expect from JLI while balancing that against the narrative they find themselves in. Being on the brink of society falling apart is not a whole lot of fun and laughs, but we’ll still get those character beats in there.
And adding the « Kingdom Come » characters into the mix is a fairly significant contrast to how the JLI operates. I tend to think of the JLI heroes as not quite as powerful as the Justice League of America. But the « Kingdom Come » characters bring quite a few heavy hitters to the mix. So they contrast in both style and sheer power level.[/quote]
