L’éditeur IDW ajoute une nouvelle franchise à son catalogue déjà bien fourni…celle des héros Marvel !
IDW s’associe avec la Maison des Idées pour développer une nouvelle collection destinée à un jeune lectorat. Les deux maisons d’édition misent sur l’accessibilité (autant dans le contenu, présenté comme un parfait point d’entrée pour les nouveaux lecteurs, que dans la disponibilité, car ces bouquins seront également vendus dans toutes les librairies U.S.) et une première fournée de titres centrés sur les valeurs sûres du box-office.
La première série sera consacrée à Spider-Man (qui sera accompagné de Spider-Gwen et Miles Morales) et sera lancée en novembre 2018, un mois avant la sortie du film d’animation Spider-Man : New Generation. L’équipe créative devrait être annoncée ce week-end au San Diego Comic Con.
IDW poursuivra avec un titre Avengers en décembre et une série Black Panther en janvier 2019.
C.B. Cebulski (Marvel) : “Marvel is excited to work with IDW to share these brand-new stories with our younger fans. Characters like Spider-Man, Black Panther, and the Avengers inspire us through their strength and determination, but they resonate with readers because of the struggles they face and the challenges they overcome. We want to share their journeys with our younger fans first-hand.”
John Barber (IDW) : “From Iron Man to Captain Marvel, from the Hulk to Shuri — the Marvel pantheon has something for everyone. With this team-up, Marvel and IDW aim to bring exciting, all-new comics to a generation growing up in a Marvel world.”
Mais ce n’est pas si nouveau, ni surprenant que ça. Les petits bouquins racontant les aventures des héros Marvel, à destination des têtes blondes, ne sont pas non plus directement produits par La Maison des Idées il me semble.
La série Spider-Man de IDW est écrite par Delilah S Dawson (Star Wars Adventures) et dessinée par Fico Ossio (Revolution).
