Il y aura bien un ‹ Reboot › en mai 2016 chez DC Comics mais pas forcément là où les lecteurs l’attendent (en tout cas dans un premier temps).
L’éditeur de Wonder Woman et Batman a révélé via le site Entertainment Weekly qu’il lançait le remaniement des productions Hanna-Barbera avec l’aide d’auteurs prestigieux.
C’est le cas par exemple de la relance de Scooby-Doo sous le titre Scooby Apocalypse avec, aux manettes, nulles autres que Jim Lee, Keith Giffen (Justice League 3001) et Howard Porter (Superman).
[quote]« Les enfants terribles » et leur mystérieuse machine sont responsables d’une expérience qui a mal tourné. Ils vont maintenant avoir besoin de tout leur talent d’enquêteur (ainsi que de nombreux encas) pour trouver un remède à un monde rempli de créatures mutantes infectées par un nano-virus qui accroit la peur et les instincts primaux.
L’horreur n’est pas une farce dans ce futur proche apocalyptique. [/quote]
[quote] Scooby Doo’s been around for years. People come into this with a certain expectation, so Shaggy, Velma, and Daphne and Fred and Scooby — the core of who they are had to be there. You can change the situation they’re in, you can change the group dynamic.
I always bring up Afterlife with Archie, wherein they told a different kind of story, they approached it from a different angle, but it was still Archie and Reggie and Betty and Veronica and all the characters you knew. It’s just that they were tweaked a little for the story being told.
So with the Scooby Doo stuff, I’m not looking to tell people, « I know Scooby better than anybody else — I’ll just change everything! » No. I’m trying to approach the characters by keeping as much of who they are as is possible within the limits of the story.[/quote]
Les couvertures d’Adams et **Porter ** sont pas mal, les planches aussi, Giffen & **DeMatteis **ont fait de belles choses ensemble, bref pourquoi pas !
Bien vu ! Donc le compère DeMatteis serait de la partie ? Ça n’avait pourtant pas été annoncé à l’origine mais il n’y a rien d’étonnant à ce qu’ils reforment le duo.
