L’éditeur Marvel Comics a dévoilé un nouveau teaser présentant le « Infamous » (impopulaire) du scénariste Cullen Bunn (Venom, Fearless Defenders) et du dessinateur Gabriel Hernández Walta.
Rendez-vous dans quelques jours pour la révélation concernant ce nouveau projet « All-New MarvelNow » attendu pour mars 2014.
[quote=« Cullen Bunn »]Magneto in this story is very much a detective, seeking out and investigating threats to mutants before cutting loose with all the fury of a supervillain — or superhero, depending on your point of view…
We can sympathize with him even though he has been responsible for terrible crimes against humanity. He walks such a fine line. He’s standing up for his people — the mutants. He refuses to let them suffer as he has seen others suffer. But he’s taken steps to protect mutants that can only be seen as evil. His ideals are often ‘good’ while his methods are not.
Magneto should be seen as some kind of monster by the world at large. When he cuts loose, cities tremble. He might stand by the heroes from time to time, but he’s terrifying for the average person.
He’s out there — wandering about, waiting — but sooner or later he’s going to strike and when he does, chaos erupts. Magneto is cloaked in that sense of fear and dread.[/quote]
[quote=« Cullen Bunn »]In this story, he’s a detective, judge, jury, and executioner when it comes to threats against mutants. He’s taking a proactive role in finding threats—and potential threats—and putting a decisive end to them. He’s ruthless in his quest, fighting fire with fire, and evil—as he defines it—with evil.
So, if I had to define Magneto’s role succinctly, it might be hunter.[/quote]
[quote=« Cullen Bunn »]At first, Magneto will be on his own. He will, however, soon realize that he needs allies. He will utilize his own network of contacts, and there will be some new characters showing up. We’ll see a team of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who are hounding Magneto. And we might witness the rise of a new band of Acolytes.
I think the Acolytes will spark a lot of conversation – eventually. To begin with, though, we’re pretty focused on Magneto.[/quote]
