Oh la surprise!!!

Bilquis Evely c’est un très bon point ! Et vu que j’avais bien aimé le portrait de Superman par Tom King dans Up in the Sky je suis assez curieux !

Pourquoi pas.

Oh, je prends !

Oh, le coup de coeur. Tom King livre un récit fort, qui plonge Supergirl dans un monde extraterrestre d’Heroic-Fantasy, avec une narration via une jeune fille soudain orpheline et qui veut venger son père. Elle cherche quelqu’un pour tuer le meurtrier, tombe sur une Kara qui cherche à fuir dans ce monde sous soleil rouge son anniversaire… et rien ne se passe bien.
C’est surprenant, c’est fluide, c’est intense, c’est prenant, c’est choquant pour le final, et c’est illustré dans un style très adapté à ce récit par Bilquis Evely.

Coup de coeur, oui.

C’est un vrai coup de coeur graphique dans un premier temps. Le graphisme dégage une certaine personnalité qui met à mal les stéréotypes des dessins super-héros.

Ensuite sur l’histoire, je crois bien que l’on est bon pour un plaisir de lecture d’un trait et non en mensuel. Du Tom King, quoi…

After the shocking conclusion of last issue, Supergirl and her new friend Ruthye find themselves stranded with no way to pursue Krem, the murderous kingsagent. Each moment this fugitive roams free, the more beings become dangerously close to dying by his hand. There is no time to lose, so our heroes must now travel across the universe the old-fashioned way…by cosmic bus!

Little do they know, their journey will be a dark one filled with terrors that not even the Maid of Might is prepared to face! Can Kara Zor-El lie low long enough to ensure their safe passage?

Supergirl’s journey across the cosmos continues! Her hunt to bring the killer Krem to justice brings her and the young alien in her care to a small planet, where they discover that there are still some very small minds, even on the outer edges of the galaxy. The cold welcome the locals give the Woman of Steel makes her suspicious enough to go looking for secrets they want to keep buried, and what she finds is nothing short of horrifying. Can she and Ruthye get off the planet alive now that these deadly sins have been exposed?

Supergirl sets her sights on the Brigands, a group of dastardly nomads hell-bent on slaughtering all they come across. Nowshe must follow their path of destruction to find the fugitive they’ve been hiding who set her on this intergalactic journey in the first place!

Quel épisode magnifique!

Autant l’histoire est très linéaire, avec une Supergirl portant sur son dos Ruthye et parcourant les horizons (oh combien MAGNIFIQUES) avec des vrais moments de décourvertes (j’ai en tête la découverte macabre du numéro 3), autant cet épisode des origines est (oh combien) MAGNIFIQUE et touchant.

King doit remodeler un peu les origines de Supergirl (je connais très peu le personnage, je dois avouer) ou les approfondir. Il y développe sa famille de Krypton, un premier départ et un second très émouvant.

Encore, une fois, faudra tout relire pour apprécier pleinement cette histoire. Tom King reste Tom King.

Je vous passe le couplet sur les dessins oh combien MAGNIFIQUES de Bilquis Evely.

Une petite comète (comprendre PEPITE). ;).

Krem’s fate revealed! As Supergirl continues her battle against the Brigands, Ruthye squares off against this most vile villain in hopes of avenging her father and completing their mission. Will justice be served on both accounts? Or will our heroes fail? You won’t want to miss thrilling conclusion of the acclaimed miniseries that has changed Kara Zor-El for good!

Je me disais que j’aimais bien le dessin… J’allais demander ce que Bilquis Evely avait fait d’autre, et mon œil est tombé sur Sandman - The Dreaming, que je viens d’acheter et qui est à côté de moi…
J’ai donc une partie de la réponse !
