FROSTBITE #1-4 (Joshua Williamson / Jason Shawn Alexander)

Comics VO DC
#1

Malgré la restructuration, le label Vertigo continue d’annoncer de nouveaux titres comme le prouve Frostbite, une nouvelle série concoctée par le scénariste Joshua Williamson (maintenant “exclusif” chez DC Comics pour qui il s’apprête à relancer The Flash) et le trop rare Jason Shawn Alexander (créateur de la série Empty Zone chez Image Comics).

L’histoire suit la trafiquante sud-africaine Keaton dans son voyage à travers le nouvel âge de glace terrestre. Pendant son périple, elle découvre une nouvelle maladie mortelle que les survivants appellent l’Engelure. Keaton est alors engagée pour protéger la scientifique qui pourrait être en possession d’un remède.

Le premier numéro sort en septembre.

Cover by: Jason Shawn Alexander.

Description: Long after Earth has entered its second ice age, humanity has learned to cope with the frozen elements. In this cold and bleak future, heat is power, and brutal gangs roam the icy wasteland looking for it. If that wasn’t enough, a terrible disease nicknamed “frostbite” is literally freezing people from the inside out. Once you catch it, the effect is instantaneous. There is no immunity, there is no cure. Until now. Doctor Henry Bonham and his daughter Victoria have found the key to ending frostbite. If they can get from Mexico City to a secret government outpost in Alcatraz, they could stabilize life across the globe. But to do that they’ll need to stay alive. That’s where Keaton comes in. She and her crew have faced worse journeys before, but never with the potential consequences this one poses if they fail.

J’ai pris le titre par curiosité en raison de son sujet post-apo. Le premier numéro fait office d’introduction et peut paraître se noyer dans la présenter des enjeux qui ne sont pas si immenses finalement.

Il y a surement des choses à gratter sur la mini mais, sauf coup de théâtre, l’intérêt de la série restera assez limité.

Mais comme le soulignait Jack, JS Alexander est trop rare. Son dessin et le traitement de l’image (le grain, les couleurs, etc…) fonctionnent très bien.

The high-action futuristic Western from the writer of THE FLASH and the creator of Empty Zone kicks into high gear! Keaton has managed to get Vic out of Los Angeles, but the trouble is only just starting. The mysterious Boss Burns knows the precious cargo that Vic is carrying, and he wants it for himself. He’s put a price on the women’s heads, and now all of the nastiest gangs of the frozen American wasteland are barreling down on them, guns drawn and ready to claim the prize.

Vic has a bounty on her head, and everyone out on the ice is looking to collect. After narrowly escaping the latest attempt on her life, she and Keaton hide away in a remote cabin where the previous inhabitants died of Frostbite. Little do they know, however, that Fuego’s thugs are just about to knock on their door.
