SPIDER-MAN / SUPERMAN (Brad Meltzer, Pepe Larraz, collectif)

[Le_Doc]

Après le one-shot Superman/Spider-Man de DC en mars, Marvel sortira son numéro spécial en avril. L’histoire principale de Spider-Man/Superman sera signée Brad Meltzer et Pepe Larraz et il y aura en complément plusieurs histoires courtes par Dan Slott, Marcos Martin, Geoff Johns, Gary Frank, Bendis, Pichelli, Louise Simonson, Todd Nauck, Jason Aaron, Russell Dauterman, Joe Kelly et Humberto Ramos.

SPIDER-MAN/SUPERMAN, an all-new Marvel/DC crossover one-shot featuring stories by Brad Meltzer, Pepe Larraz, Brian Michael Bendis, Geoff Johns, Jason Aaron, Russell Dauterman, and more superstar talent, arrives in April.

After the blockbuster response to last year’s Deadpool/Batman and in celebration of the 50th anniversary of Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man—the very first Marvel/DC crossover—Marvel and DC are teaming up once again. This April brings SPIDER-MAN/SUPERMAN #1, a historic new one-shot that reunites two of pop culture’s greatest heroes. And just like last year, fans will get a double dose of crossover magic, with DC releasing its own companion one-shot, Superman/Spider-Man, in March. The one-shot follows the March one-shot Superman/Spider-Man.

Headlining the Marvel special is a dream creative pairing: New York Times bestselling author Brad Meltzer, making his first full-length Marvel Comics debut, teams with superstar artist Pepe Larraz. Their lead story unites Spider-Man and Superman against a villainous alliance of Lex Luthor and Norman Osborn, but that’s only the beginning. The oversized issue also packs in a slate of bonus stories from some of the biggest names in comics, each bringing Marvel and DC characters together in ways fans will be talking about for decades.

Among the highlights:

• Dan Slott and Marcos Martin send Spider-Man Noir into the shadowy 1930s to meet the Golden Age Superman.
• Geoff Johns returns to Marvel for his first story in more than 20 years, reuniting with Gary Frank for a Super- and Spider-family clash sparked by Mysterio.
• Jason Aaron and Russell Dauterman stage an epic showdown as symbiotes swarm Metropolis in a tale featuring Jane Foster’s Mighty Thor, Wonder Woman, and more.
• Louise Simonson and Todd Nauck pit Steel against the Hobgoblin.
• Joe Kelly and Humberto Ramos deliver a campus crossover starring Gwen Stacy and Lana Lang.
• Brian Michael Bendis and Sara Pichelli reunite Miles Morales with Superman in a team-up fans won’t want to miss.

And that’s just scratching the surface.

“I’ve been waiting fifty years to write this book,” Meltzer shared. “Superman and Spider-Man have affected me more than most real people. I carry them with me everywhere — and our story cuts to the core of what it means to be a good person. I’m honored that Nick Lowe and everyone at Marvel even asked. Just wait until you see Pepe’s work. Get your capes and web-shooters ready…”

Marvel Editor-in-Chief C.B. Cebulski echoed the excitement: “Everyone here at Marvel is excited to be re-teaming with our friends at DC for another colossal crossover, this time to celebrate the 50th anniversary of our two icons, Spider-Man and Superman, first teaming up! I can’t wait for fans of every generation to read these spectacular stories that our titanic talent are telling, featuring all-new, easily accessible stories about the ever-growing Spider-Man and Superman families meeting for the first time.”

SPIDER-MAN/SUPERMAN #1 will feature a main cover by Pepe Larraz alongside an impressive lineup of variant covers from Sara Pichelli, Walter Simonson, Greg Capullo, Marcos Martin, Ryan Stegman, Peach Momoko, Erik Larsen, Jerome Opeña, Russell Dauterman, plus a wraparound cover by Kaare Andrews, a foil cover by Mark Bagley, and a Logo Mash-Up Variant. With more story and cover reveals still to come, the stage is set for one of the most talked-about crossover events in comics history.

Ouaip. J’avoue que le programme m’intéresse plus que les Deadpool/Batman (que je lirais quand même, hein ^^)…

Je trouve les castings de personnages des back-ups peu emballants.

Brad Meltzer

Ce que cela a donné précédemment lorsqu’il a brièvement écrit Spidey à l’occasion du one-shot Marvel Comics #1000 (la meilleure histoire de Spider-Man de ces 10 dernières années selon Dan Slott) :

Dan Slott : "You’re all wrong.

The best Spider-Man story in the past 10 years is « We’re Calling Him Ben. »
It’s from MARVEL #1000.
It’s all of one page long.
Written by Brad Meltzer (his first and only time writing Spidey).
With art by Julian Totino Tedesco.

As soon as I finished reading that solitary page, I put the issue down, called Tom Brevoort, got Brad Meltzer’s contact info, called Brad Meltzer, introduced myself, told him he was a fcking genius, and that I fcking hated him, and that I couldn’t f*cking wait for his next Spider-Man story.

The End."

I feel this is an important addition. He saves so many people on a regular basis that this just keeps happening. And he feels so much for his uncle that the answer is always the same.

…. This hits different when you realise he’s canonically Jewish

Can you please elaborate ? I’m curious as to what it means

You can read a pretty good summary of it here, but as (most likely) Ashkenazi Jews, PP probably follows the minhag (custom) that says “that by naming a newborn child after a deceased loved one, the soul lives on through the child.” (Quoted from the site linked above.) And given how his Uncle Ben died, it just makes it all the more sadder tbh.

another fine distinction is that the soul isn’t thought to be reincarnated, it’s that the memory of the loved one is kept alive and more good deeds in life can be inspired by (and thus partially attributed to) the dead. ‘may their memory be a blessing’–the memory of the deceased is honored, respected, and who they were is retold as inspiration to the next generation.

ben’s memory is a blessing. that’s extremely jewish. spiderman is inspired not just by the shame of his death, but by the moral teachings he’d given peter in life. and his name given to these babies is another part of it: babies named in spiderman’s honor are also very honestly and truly named in his honor, and continue to be blessings to the world.

it’s very joyous, i think. very sweet.

I swear to God I get happy tears every time I see these panels, and the commentary makes it even better

Always reblog the jewish spiderman lore

« Que sa mémoire soit une bénédiction » expression « consacrée » chez les juifs.

Jolie formule.

Comment sait on que Peter est juif ?

Peter Parker, je ne sais pas, mais Spider-Man doit être chrétien : sa pierre tombale arbore une croix.
