Dawn of DC, the publisher's initiative to expand its line with new and relaunched titles, is growing in May with three new titles, the first of which is titled Spirit World. Spinning out of February 14's Lazarus Planet: Dark Fate #1, Spirit World by writer Alyssa Wong and artist Haining stars new DC hero Xanthe, a nonbinary Chinese hero with a connection to the Spirit World - the "realm of the dead" - and powers connected to the afterlife.

Euuuuuh...comment dirais-je...ce sera sans moi hein. De toute façon je suis pas la cible d'un tel titre.

Des annonces je ne retiens pour l'instant que The Vigil par V, en attendant d'en voir plus.
Pour City Boy, autant sa première apparition m'a intrigué que la deuxième n'avait pas la même hype.

L'impression de voir DC copier Marvel avec le Sword Master asiatique.

From the pages of Lazarus Planet: Dark Fate, a new Chinese hero emerges who’s able to travel to and from the Spirit World, the realm of the dead, and that of the living. Their name is Xanthe, and their superpower is being able to burn items folded from joss paper and immediately turn them into real objects, based on the East Asian practice of burning joss paper at graveyards in order to send resources to ancestors in the Spirit World…except Xanthe can retrieve those items in the world of the living! Their weapon of choice is a large broadsword (because who doesn’t love a big sword when you can choose to use a big sword?!).

Xanthe is a master of the dark arts who’s here to give Constantine a run for his money…literally. When Constantine shows up saying Xanthe scammed him into buying something, he finds them and Batgirl Cass Cain fighting an abnormal influx of jiangshi (Chinese hopping vampires) and joins in to help. But when a portal opens up that drags Batgirl into the Spirit World, it’s up to Xanthe and Constantine to travel to the land of the spirits to rescue her! Who knows what other spirits we’ll find in the Spirit World—like that skateboarding boy wearing hanfu with some headphones and a gaping hole in his chest?!

Ca fonctionnait mieux en N&B

J'en veux tellement à DC de faire n'importe quoi avec John Constantine.

J'en veux tellement à DC de faire n'importe quoi avec John Constantine.Je n'ai pas de problème avec ce qu'ils font de Constantine mais je trouve dommage qu'il n'y ai plus rien de fait sur Hellblazer

Idem ! Ça me tentait mais la colonne gâche totalement le truc

Ah mais si les gars, il y a un comics Hellblazer en ce moment, il est juste en fille et chez Boom, et ça s'appelle Damn them all, c'est à s'y méprendre.
