DISNEY VILLAINS GASTON #1
(W) Greg Pak, Fred Van Lente (A) Milena Ciccarello (CA) Leirix Li
AT LAST — A SERIES WORTHY OF THE NAME GASTON! The unfairly maligned antagonist of Beauty and the Beast will be the first to tell you that he’s the greatest tracker in the land, a fact that has been confirmed by his totally unbiased sidekick, LeFou — and who would know better than these two fine, upstanding citizens? So when a nobleman offers a sizable reward for the return of his runaway horse, Gaston pursues the escaping steed with a single-minded focus — directly into the king’s private hunting grounds! Arrested for trespassing, Gaston faces a long stay in the royal lock-up — except that his obviously superior abilities impress the king’s wily advisor, the Comte du Soufflé, who has a dangerous mission that only someone as unthinkingly brave as the great Gaston would ever contemplate taking on. If he succeeds, he’ll be free to go — but when he finds out what he’s up against, prison might seem like the safer bet! Highly animated authors GREG PAK (Lilo & Stitch) and FRED VAN LENTE (Conan the Avenger) join forces with artiste extraordinaire MILENA CICCARELLO to finally bring readers the tale that they have surely been clamoring for with Disney Villains: Gaston — featuring appropriately adoring covers courtesy of CICCARELLO, LESLEY « LEIRIX » LI, TED BRANDT & RO STEIN, and WILL ROBSON!

Elle est étonnante, la reprise après Franquin.

Disney Villains: Gaston #2
ALL FOR ONE, AND ONE FOR… HIMSELF, REALLY! After completely innocently stumbling into the King’s private hunting ground and being most unjustly arrested for trespassing, Gaston — the world’s greatest tracker, in case you hadn’t heard — finds himself pressed into service by the cunning Comte du Soufflé and tasked with retrieving an amulet from a mysterious alchemist.
Quite uncharacteristically, Gaston bungles the job (no doubt the fault of his oafish sidekick, LeFou) and is transformed into a squirrel for his trouble. But the joke will be on his detractors, for nothing, not even radical reductions in stature, status, and species, can hold back the greatness that is Gaston — a certainty that he will easily demonstrate just as soon as he evades the horde of angry animals now pursuing him!
Dedicated dramatists GREG PAK, FRED VAN LENTE, and MILENA CICCARELLO exhaust their supply of superlatives in capturing the glory that is Disney Villains: Gaston #2 — featuring deservedly doting covers by CICCARELLO, LESLEY “LEIRIX” LI, TED BRANDT & RO STEIN, and WILL ROBSON!
