Le quatrième arc commence, et c’est sérieusement musclé : incendie, explosion, personnages portés disparus (il doit y avoir anguille sous roche, mais bon…)… Apparemment, la valse des co-scénaristes a cessé, et Diggle reprend l’écriture à lui tout seul. Un peu moins d’ironie, un peu moins d’effets de style, une écriture plus frontale et carrée. Mais ça s’annonce solide. Do gros polar, visiblement. Vivement la suite.

Le numéro 22 se lit super vite, mais il est intense : c’est musclé, ça annonce des développements assez percutants. Et si la série est fidèle à elle-même, doit y avoir une grosse surprise à l’arrivée.
Ce qui est pas mal, c’est le changement de tonalité. On passe du récit de braquage au récit de vengeance, voire au récit de commando, et pourtant, structurellement, c’est la même chose.
La grosse différence, c’est le rythme : Diggle est à fond sur les ellipses, et ça rend le côté « film d’action » de cet arc d’autant plus efficace.

Après le nettoyage de printemps lancé lors de l’arc « The Hit List », et qui a propulsé la série dans les sphères du film d’action violent (purée, que ça défouraille), Diggle revient aux fondamentaux du titre : des histoires de braqueurs, le personnage principal qui se retire… Ce qui entraîne du mouvement chez les personnages secondaires, Celia en premier. Ça bouge, ça va vite (ça se lit également très vite…), et sans être extraordinaire, c’est roublard et efficace. L’intrigue s’oriente vers un récit juridique, tendance qui était déjà lancée avec le truculent personnage de Foxley.
Une série toujours agréable à lire, avec plein de jolies nanas, ce qui ne gâte rien.

Dans le dernier numéro en date (le #37, d’octobre dernier), l’editor Jon Moisan, explique qu’Andy Diggle quitte la série. Martinbrough profite donc de l’occasion pour se reposer un peu à l’occasion d’une pause de quelques mois, et ils affirment annoncer en 2017 l’arrivée d’un scénariste avec qui tout le monde rêve de travailler, blablabla…
N’empêche que je suis curieux de voir qui c’est. Et de savoir comment il va reprendre le récit, qui vient de négocier un tournant plutôt costaud.
J’aimais bien aussi le montage du début, avec Kirkman en « grand frère » et des scénaristes qui tournent. Ça serait marrant de revenir à ça, mais je crois qu’ils ne le feront pas, et qu’il préféreront installer une équipe stable.
