*Malgré les annonces régulières de l’éditeur Marvel Comics depuis plus d’une semaine, une source anonyme a diffusé l’intégralité du Marvel Comics’ Marvel NOW! Previews Magazine sur la toile avant sa publication. On découvre ainsi les nouvelles séries de la nouvelle collection Marvel Now ; les relances ; les équipes créatives impliquées ; et même les titres qui continuent sans interruption. *
Contrairement à ce qu’on pouvait présager, la nouveau titre Doctor Strange : Sorcerers Supreme ne viendra pas remplacer la série régulière Doctor Strange mais plutôt l’accompagner alors que la sortie du film Docteur Strange - avec Benedict Cumberbatch dans le rôle titre - approche à grand pas.
Si l’on en croit le slogan, les Sorciers Suprêmes de différentes époques seront rassemblés pour sauver le monde d’une terrible menace. Le titre a été confié au jeune scénariste Robbie Thompson (Spidey, Silk) et au dessinateur Javier Rodriguez (Spider-Woman).
Doctor Strange : Sorcerers Supreme #1 sort en octobre.

Description: The Forgotten is here and is such a threat that it’ll take a whole team of Sorcerers Supreme to take him down! Doctor Strange! The Ancient One! Merlin! Wiccan! Sir Isaac Newton!

Description: One of the Sorcerers Supreme dies at the hands of the Forgotten! The biggest magical threat to the world is on the rise, and none of the Sorcerers have ever felt this weak before!
J’ai feuilleté le troisième numéro et ça semble être vraiment très très sympa, il y a une flopée d’excellents (nouveaux ?) personnages ; Kushala & Nina tiennent toutes les deux la corde dans mon Top of the month.

Description: The Sorcerers are losing the battle to the Unforgotten. The strongest among them is dead. Doctor Strange is weaker than ever. Can Demon Rider, the Ghost Rider of the 1800s turn the tide? Or The Conjuror?! Or perhaps the young man who will become the Ancient One? The climax of the first arc is here and not everyone will make it home.
Pour ceux que cela intéresse, je commente®™ sur mon blog (Pour en savoir +) - qui a en partie fait peau neuve - les 5 premiers numéros de ce spin-off.
Et je m’attarde sur le rôle de l’editor dans cette série ; qui je pense, peut être largement extrapolé à l’ensemble de la profession aujourd’hui, avec les réserves d’usage. Of course !

After being betrayed by one of their own, Doctor Strange and the Sorcerers Supreme are banished to a dark, magical dimension where everything is out to kill them! And you’re trapped with them! Can you and the Sorcerers escape this maze-like madness?
[quote]Sir Isaac Newton, scientific genius, pioneer and now nigh-omnipotent sorcerer, has come to the present-day Marvel Universe. First order of events? Take down the Avengers. The scary thing is, with his current power level, they don’t stand a chance.
