THE VIGIL #1-6 (Ram V / Lalit Kumar Sharma)

[Le_Doc]

The Vigil #1 (of 6) – On Sale May 16, 2023

This mysterious team of South Asian metahumans made their first appearance in Lazarus Planet: Next Evolution #1 and can be seen again in issues #1070 and #1071 of Detective Comics. Written by Ram V (Detective Comics, Swamp Thing), with art by Lalit Kumar Sharma (Truth & Justice, Marvel’s Daredevil), The Vigil is Arclight, Saya, Dodge, and Castle, a group of individuals given powers they didn’t want, determined to stop metahuman research and tech created for military applications at any cost. Along the way, they’ll encounter super heroes that could be allies or enemies, not a surprise for a group that exists to shut down state-sponsored superhumans…and clean up the mess before any hero or villain arrives, as if both the crime and The Vigil were never there.

Artist Sumit Kumar provides the main cover, with variant covers by Mukesh Singh and series artist Lalit Kumar Sharma and Anand RK, with Pop Mhan providing a special AAPI Heritage Month variant.

Curieux de voir si RAM V sera un peu plus intéressant sur ce nouveau titre qu’il ne l’est sur Detective Comics ou Carnage.

[Hush2.0]

Ben pour le moment, Ram V est plutôt à la Ramasse.

Description: /Who Are The Vigil? The shipping vessel Eastwind was taken captive by pirates off the coast of Thailand. 24 hours after the crew had been taken hostage, before communications had been established or any demands made, the crew reported an intervention by a group of unknown individuals. Amid other bizarre claims by the crew, are reports of an individual who changed his appearance at will and a woman who seemingly dodged bullets. Once the pirates were taken out, no attempts were made at rescuing the crew. There have long been rumors rogue metahumans targeting weaponized illegal technology. With some hinting that they call themselves The Vigil. What were they after? Why did they intervene? Are there metas among us? Stay tuned for more… you are being watched.

Il aura pas fallu attendre longtemps pour qu’il passe du statut on leche au statut on lynche.

[soyouz (FC powaaaa)]

Dès que tu rames, on te le fait payer.

[Hush2.0]

Il n’est pas pas banni non plus. Je m’attendais à beaucoup mieux, à une meilleure construction de l’intrigue. Il perpétue la (très) mauvaise qualité du titre depuis… depuis… quand?

Si je remonte. Tamaki, Tomasi, Robinson, Hill… Bref, depuis le départ de Tynion.

Description: Who Are the Vigil? Arclight file loading… The identity of Arclight, a known member of the rogue metahuman group the Vigil, is unknown at this time. However, observations conclude that he is the leader of the group, which also consists of Dodge, Saya, and Castle…among other possible members unknown at this time. Evidence shows there is a link between Arclight’s military history with the pirates who have taken control of a boat along the coast of Thailand and the island destination where the contents of the boat were headed. What secrets does this island contain, and is it another government experiment covered up as a « conspiracy » only believed by heretics? Stay tuned for more…you are being watched.

The Vigil #3

/…/
/Who Are the Vigil?/
/Saya file loading…
Saya file unavailable. Saya identity unknown. Based on available sightings of the Vigil, it is likely that Saya is a shape-shifter, and based on the technology it’s theorized that they use…their identity may even be unknown to Saya themselves. If this may be true, then Saya’s history may be a threat to the Vigil metahuman group without any of them knowing, including Saya.
Stay tuned for more/

Je trouve Ram V bien plus inspiré ici que sur ce qu’il fait chez Marvel.
Pour le moment, ça me plait beaucoup.

[Blackiruah]

Ram V s’est carrément mis comme héros DC ?

[Hush2.0]

Héros de la partouze?

[Blackiruah]

partouzator ?

[Hush2.0]

Il est devenu ce héros car il a été choqué lors d’une partouze. Il a décidé qu’il serait désormais le Justicier des Partouzeurs abusés. Cela se tient.

Description: /Who are the Vigil?/ /Dodge file loading… Dodge is the speedster metahuman in the secret organization called the Vigil. Her alias is likely to be a woman who goes by the name Dinah Kom. All files connected to this name have been erased. The only information left that was pieced together by Checkmate is that Dodge has a condition that places an extraordinary amount of fast-twitch muscle fiber in her body. Her suit allows her to control the fibers to move at the speed of thought. The multiversal and space-time repercussions of this are to be discussed in the next transmission.
