Cet automne, Marvel Comics donnera le coup d’envoi d’une nouvelle initiative intitulée MARVEL LEGACY. Marvel annonce un retour aux sources, à l’ancienne numérotation des plus vieux titres de son catalogue, des récits qui seront des points d’entrée idéals…un accent mis sur les personnages iconiques mais sans oublier la nouvelle génération du Marvel NOW.
Bref, « de l’espoir, du plaisir, du fun, du sense of wonder » !
Marvel a dévoilé une salve de 52 (!) titres par le biais de couvertures teasers rendant hommage à une illustration passée. La numérotation et les équipes créatives n’ont pas encore été révélées.
La série Moon Knight continuera après le départ de Jeff Lemire :
Marvel a dévoilé la nouvelle équipe créative de Moon Knight : Max Bemis (Worst X-Man ever, Foolkiller) au scénario et Jacen Burrows (Crossed, Providence) aux dessins…et ils amènent avec eux un tout nouvel adversaire pour le Chevalier de la Lune.
The first story we’re telling, I’m hoping to create the ultimate nemesis for Moon Knight. I know he has one a little bit, but I still feel, like when we were talking about it initially, if he’s Batman, he doesn’t really have a Joker — yet. What I’m doing is, rather than focusing on his inner struggles so much, this is about him coming up against really intense, life-changing scenarios, and the main one being facing the ultimate bad guy who’s his polar opposite in pretty much every way (without giving away too much). We’re just going to put him through the wringer a little bit, but it’s not going to be one of those depressing, “Let’s just have Moon Knight to complain the entire time.” I want him to now move on to his next phase of his existence.
MOON KNIGHT #188 & 189
