Cet hiver, quasiment impossible d'échapper à Joe Hill.
En plus de la ligne Hill House qu'il supervise chez DC, avec deux titres qu'il écrit, le fiston King aura une nouvelle série chez IDW avec Dying is Easy. L'histoire d'un ancien flic qui se lance dans le stand-up. Martin Simmonds (Punks not dead) illustrera cette mini en cinq parties qui débutera en décembre.

Pour cause de ventes très basses, Marylin Manor est annulé chez IDW. Seul le #1 aura été publié, les épisodes #2 à #4 et donc forcément la collection ne verront pas le jour.
IDW dit continuer à donner sa confiance aux auteurs sur de futurs projets.

A priori Black crown n'existe plus.

Ça serait dans une phase transitoire, avec l’arrêt du format single pour plus se concentrer sur les Graphic Novel.

Bond regrette que le label n'a pas trouvé son lectorat, alors qu'on a eu une levée de boucliers lorsque Vertigo a fermé, pourtant c'était la même offre.

[EsseJi]

Après, même si la ligne Black Crown disparaît, ce n'est pas la fin des séries indépendantes chez IDW. Pour décembre il y a même une belle fournée avec du Joe Hill et un nouveau Ryan Ferrier.

Je viens de voir sur le site d'IDW une nouvelle série à venir qui titille un poil ma curiosité : BERMUDA par John Layman et Nick Bradshaw

“Bermuda is a story that’s been rattling around in my head for a while, and the type of book I’ve wanted to write for quite some time: high adventure with a jungle hero in a strange, savage land filled with all kinds of dangers and a world that’s both weird and wonderful,” says Layman. “In addition to Chew, my absolute favorite books I’ve ever done have been with IDW – Scarface, Godzilla, and Mars Attacks – so I’m hoping lightning strikes a fourth time with Bermuda!”

Scarlet l'avait annoncé dans le topic de la convention de New York, c'est vrai que j'aurai dû rassembler ça ici.

[aegnor]

Crotte ! J'avions point vu le sujet sur la convention !

Et ça débute enfin en mai! :yo: :yo:

Mais rien en juin...

Je sens que ça va vite dégager de mes précommandes pour préférer le tpb (ou la vf) car si c'est pour attendre des mois entre chaque numéro, très peu pour moi.

[scarletneedle]

Archonia me met le #1 désormais en mars 2021?!?

Diamonds indique que c'est un one-shot :

The romantic vision of war died in the fields of horrendous carnage of northern France during the first World War. Yet, millions went willingly to the trenches, even Americans in great numbers before war was declared in 1917.

One of those who yearned to go is John Locke, the son of Chamberlin Locke, and though he's too young to take up a rifle and fight, the power of Keyhouse's keys will lead him to France in Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez's Locke & Key: ...In Pale Battalions Go..., a one-shot in the beloved Locke & Key series from IDW Publishing. Locke will discover the dark reality behind his own romantic vision in this powerful tale.

Dans la série crossover improbable, ça se pose là... :D

https://www.gamesradar.com/back-to-the-future-crosses-over-with-transformers-for-its-35th-anniversary/

To celebrate the 35th anniversary of the release of the film franchise, IDW Publishing will cross the time-travel franchise over with Transformers for a four-issue limited series.

No stranger to crossing over its licensed comic books, IDW Publishing has previously crossed over Transformers with G.I. Joe, Ghostbusters, and several other prominent franchises under IDW's banner. In this case, the crossover will focus on a totally new Transformer with his own Back to the Future twist – he's based on a DeLorean, the same car that is turned into a time machine in Back to the Future, thanks to Doc Brown's Flux Capacitor device.

[JB]

Bof, la franchise Transformers a déjà croisé celle de Doctor Who via Death's head, après tout.

IDW est sans tête

Il n'est plus à la tête, mais garde certaines fonction et pas des moindres, comme tout ce qui se fait autour de Locke & Key.

The publisher did not specify the reason for putting Meyers on administrative leave.

Juste 5 jours?

Heu...



Juste 5 jours?

Judd Meyer à un passé peu glorieux dans le milieu des comics ces 30 dernières années (arnaques, entourloupes, filoutages ... ) et quand tu t'es fait un ennemi du numéro 2 de Diamond Comics Distributor ... (et de Geoff Johns, entre autre ... )

Bin alors pourquoi le nommer si tout cela est connu? :D

Former DC top editor Mark Doyle joins IDW for expansion of original titles

https://www.gamesradar.com/former-dc-top-editor-mark-doyle-joins-idw-for-expansion-of-original-titles/

Très bonne pioche pour IDW et tant pis pour DC de l'avoir fait partir...

Avec son carnet d'adresses, il peut amener du beau monde.

[ArnaudXIII]

Très belle pioche, en effet. C'était le dernier vestige de Vertigo encore chez DC, non?

Très bonne pioche pour IDW et tant pis pour DC de l'avoir fait partir...

Avec son carnet d'adresses, il peut amener du beau monde.

Sauf que si le lectorat lui réserve le même accueil qu'à Shelly Bond, on se dirige encore vers un flop éditorial.

[scarletneedle]

Pour cela qu'il va d'abord se pencher sur l'existant.
Il n'arrive pas en annonçant vouloir réinventer l'eau chaude.
Elle devient quoi au fait Shelly Bond?

Elle devient quoi au fait Shelly Bond?

IDW veut aussi sa part du gâteau dans le creator owned...

https://bleedingcool.com/comics/nachie-marsham-wants-idw-to-be-home-to-creator-owned-comics-in-2022/

Est-ce que l'arrivée de Mark Doyle le permettra?


Dans tous les cas, tout cela finira par se phagocyter vu tous les éditeurs, les lignes, les formats, etc...
Le carnet de chèques d'Hollywood pour les adaptations n'est pas infini. :p
