ONCE UPON A TIME AT THE END OF THE WORLD #1-5 (Jason Aaron / collectif)

La maison d’édition Boom! continue d’attirer les talents (continuant ainsi à faire de l’ombre à Image), mettant cette fois-ci le grappin sur le nouveau creator-owned de Jason Aaron (actuellement à l’oeuvre sur une maxi-série Punisher et sa fin de run sur Avengers), décrit comme une de ses oeuvres les plus ambitieuses (une romance en pleine fin du Monde est au programme). Un titre prévu sous la forme d’une triptyque, avec un dessinateur différent à chaque numéro (dont les noms n’ont pas été révélés).

Aaron : « This is the story of two lost kids who find each other at the very end of days. Like if Wes Anderson had directed ‘Road Warrior.’ But that’s only the beginning of their journey of survival and of the world’s last great love story. »

ça y est, il l’a annoncé ?

"As announced at San Diego Comic Con, I’m getting to work with the legendary artist Bryan Hitch for the very first time on the Alpha issue of AVENGERS ASSEMBLE, a massive multi-issue saga that represents the culmination of years’ worth of stories and serves to unite the AVENGERS, AVENGERS FOREVER and the AVENGERS 1,000,000 B.C. in one cataclysmic showdown. I’m pulling a whole bunch of threads into my final AVENGERS epic, leaving no character or crazy idea unexploded. And man, what a thrill to be working with Bryan. This is as gorgeous an oversized, prehistoric slugfest as Marvel has ever seen.

“Avengers Assemble.” Say the words like a prayer. And hope it will save you."

Merci. Je n’avais pas vu passer l’info.

S’il peut enfin se remettre à Southern Basterds et The Goddamned, ça fera quelques heureux je présume (moi le premier).

Depuis qu’il a quitté le franco-belge, il s’éclate complètement.

A Wasteland of Horrors in ONCE UPON A TIME AT THE END OF THE WORLD #2

Discover Postapocalyptic Peril from NYT Bestselling Writer & All-Star Artists Starting in December 2022

BOOM! Studios revealed today a first look at ONCE UPON A TIME AT THE END OF THE WORLD #2, an epic post-apocalyptic series from Eisner and Harvey Award winner and New York Times bestselling writer Jason Aaron (Thor, The Avengers, Southern Bastard), artist Alexandre Tefengki (The Good Asian) with colorist Lee Loughridge and letterer AndWorld Design, about a love story at the end of the world that’s brutal and nostalgic, whimsical and grounded… and ultimately, timeless. BOOK ONE of this epic series, entitled LOVE IN THE WASTELAND, available December 2022.

Jason Aaron and Alexandre Tefenkgi’s fable of a bleak future continues in Maceo and Mezzy’s childhood years, with nothing but Mezzy’s guidebook and her skills as a wastelander to get them through their dangerous, post-apocalyptic journey. As time passes and they endure the horrors of plastic tornadoes and frozen sludge, Maceo proves to be more than just a burden, and they make a connection where none seemed possible at first. But to their unexpected peril, they might not be as alone as they thought…

ONCE UPON A TIME AT THE END OF THE WORLD #2 features main cover art by highly acclaimed illustrator Mike Del Mundo (Thor), and variant cover art by famed artists Frany (Grim) and Peach Momoko (Wynd).

Just as Maceo and Mezzy manage to find a touch of laughter and whimsy in the toxic hellscape they are traveling through, a gruesome encounter changes both of them forever. Even though Mezzy has been able to protect her naive companion so far, there is no shielding him from what comes next… an encounter with the nightmarish WASTELAND RANGERS!
