[Le_Doc]

EISNER AWARD-WINNING CREATORS BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS AND ALEX MALEEV PRESENT A NEW CRIMINAL MASTERMIND

Featuring variant covers by Peach Momoko and Tula Lotay!

Dark Horse Comics and Jinxworld present Masterpiece, a new action/adventure comic series from Eisner Award-winning creators Brian Michael Bendis (The Ones , Scarlet ) and Alex Maleev (Scarlet , Daredevil ). Bendis will write the new series with Maleev illustrating. Ian Herring joins the team as colorist with Josh Reed as letterer. Joining the team for the first issue are variant cover artists Tula Lotay (Barnstormers ) and Peach Momoko (Demon Wars , The Immortal Thor , Marvel Zombies ), with Momoko’s cover as a 1:10 incentive variant for comics retailers.

Emma, aka “Masterpiece,” is a brilliant and driven 16-year-old. She has paid for school with her next level inventions and is well-known for her funny and honest webcomics. Then, one day, Zero Preston, one of the most famous billionaires on the planet, confronts her with the truth about her world. Emma discovers she is the only daughter of two of the greatest, most charismatic master criminals of all time. Her parents were the authors of the greatest casino robbery of all time, the greatest museum heist of all time, AND they took Preston for a cool billion… before they disappeared never to be seen or heard from again.

Zero Preston has been looking for payback for years since then and now he finds Emma… who clearly does not have his money. Instead, Zero threatens Masterpiece into pulling a grand, impossible job against his corporate enemy and, in order to pull off one of the greatest heists of all time, Masterpiece fashions a crew of her peers and her parents’ old associates.

Masterpiece is perfect for fans of Miles Morales, Legion of Superheroes , and Akira .

Masterpiece #1 (of 6), breaks into comic shops on December 13, 2023. It is now available to pre-order for $3.99 at your local comic shop.

Je serais bien tenté…

Et toujours pas de Bendis en VF. C’est quand même bizarre, non?

@Hush2.0

Et toujours pas de Bendis en VF. C’est quand même bizarre, non?

La conséquence d’une popularité à la baisse ?

[Hush2.0]

Quand tu vois ce qui est publié, on ne peut pas parler de popularité. C’est inconnu au bataillon, ou les droits se négocient à ras des pâquerettes. A moins que Bendis en veuille « trop ».

[Fredo_Fontes]

Même si c’est parfois toujours aussi bavard et que c’est avare en grosse avancée de l’intrigue, c’est le genre de nouveau titre qui pourrait me réconcilier avec Bendis. Et il est accompagné par un Maleev en très grande forme. Le second numéro sera décisif pour moi…

Tu ne savais pas quel adverbe mettre ?

C’est déja sorti?

Je vais zieuter le numéro 1. Merci Fred.

[Hush2.0]

Alex Maleev m’a l’air en grande forme! Ca manque de décors souvent mais les personnages ont de la gueule.

Et Bendis n’est pas en mode mitraillette. Intéressant de le lire plus sobre.

Je vais prendre cela en TPB.

Lu le 2. Très bavard et des planches peut-être en dessous du premier numéro.

[Hush2.0]

Un petit délire, cette série. Je vais surveiller.
C’est bavard mais pas trop et Maleev semble comprendre ce qu’il veut raconter. J’ai souvenir que ce n’était pas toujours le cas chez DC.

Bien cool!
