DC va arrêter la publication de MAD...
C'est dingue comment un truc qui ne vend guère est regretté après coup.

Un teaser par Nick Bradshaw lié à Year Of The Villain, Batman Who Laughs et Batman/Superman :

	Citation:
	The first arc of BATMAN/SUPERMAN will follow the two titular heroes as they hunt down six infected heroes in the DCU—people revealed to be infected by the Batman Who Laughs with a deadly pathogen that violently transforms them into the evilest versions of themselves. The Dark Knight and the Man of Steel must journey into the depths of Gotham City to learn which of their fellow heroes has been transformed into the horrifying horseman of their most dangerous and deranged foe ever.

	Citation:
	John Constantine will join DC's Sandman Universe titles - first with a one-shot, then an ongoing series. On October 30, The Sandman Universe Presents Hellblazer #1 by writer Simon Spurrier and artist Marcio Takara will induct the character into the Neil Gaiman-curated group of titles - followed afterward by a John Constantine, Hellblazer ongoing by Spurrier and artist Aaron Campbell beginning in November. "Year One was just the start. Now you get to inhabit the worlds, books, and houses we built for you," Gaiman said. "I was thrilled when I was told that John Constantine - the original, demon-haunted one who first showed up in Swamp Thing’s 'American Gothic' story - is coming back to his murky and dangerous roots. More magic and more darkness and not a few gods and dreams are here for you to explore." Picking up from a story element in the original 1990 Books of Magic limited series co-written by Gaiman, The Sandman Universe Presents Hellblazer #1 begins as "John Constantine finds himself haggard, bloody, and dying in an epic magical war - a battle that will soon consume the world," as reads DC's press release. "As he lies there, the vision of a young Tim Hunter stands above him, the naive youth seeing firsthand what his destiny holds. Horrified, Hunter flees back into the past, and Constantine is left behind to die."

	Citation:
	Constantine's story continues years later as the warlock hears about a new young magician named Tim Hunter - with the Bellblazer worrying that history will repeat itself. "Hellblazer’s the one title I’ve always aspired to write. Ever since John Constantine slunk from Alan Moore’s brain into Swamp Thing, dropping secrets like grenades, bewildering vegetables, and spinning mysteries, I’ve been drawn to his misadventures with eerie gravity," said Spurrier. "John Constantine is the cynic’s magician: a man of selfish drives and cataclysmic self-knowledge, who tries to do the right thing in spite of himself, in spite of the cost, in spite of the vile and violent world he occupies. He may not be the hero we need, but he’s definitely the bastard we deserve." "In this new era, everything is different. Everyone and everything he loved and knew is dead or despises him. Alone, angry, older, and wiser, he beholds a world that is clearly going insane," Spurrie continued. "The shadows are deeper than ever. So he does what he does. He breathes smoke. He grins to himself. And he goes to work." This will come out ahead of DC Kids' planned The Mystery of the Meanest Teacher: A Johnny Constantine Graphic Novel – by writer Ryan North and artist Derek Charm, due out in 2020 or 2021.

Sacré nouvelle !
J'en suis, d'autant que je suis de plus en plus content de la gamme Sandman Universe, avec The Dreaming et Lucifer en tête.

Comme quoi les Cassandre avec la fermeture de Vertigo qui annonçaient la fin de l'univers...
Des visionnaires, une fois de plus...

Une interview de Jeff Lemire : ici.

	Citation:
	Writer Jeff Lemire will pen two new DC Black Label series this fall - Joker: Killer Smile with artist Andrea Sorrentino and The Question: The Deaths of Vic Sage with artists Denys Cowan and Bill Sienkiewicz, as announced via i09.

	Citation:
	The Question: The Deaths of Vic Sage, Lemire, Cowan, and Sienkiewicz will explore a version of the titular hero who dies and is reincarnated over and over in his home of Hub City. "Going all the way back to the Steve Ditko version, you have this man who’s so connected to his society, but at its heart, the stories were always existential and about searching for identity," Lemire explained of his take on the character. "There’s so much angst in society right now that stems from people not being able to see things from one another’s perspectives, and so a character like the Question can almost start off as a cipher who goes on a journey that brings shades of grey into his world as his story unfolds."

	Citation:
	Joker: Killer Smile will focus on Joker upending the life of an Arkham mental health professional - but not Harley Quinn. Instead Joker's target will be a new character, Dr. Ben Arnell, created by Lemire and Sorrentino for the series. "To be honest, the Joker’s never been a character that I’ve exactly had a deep connection with and a longstanding craving to write a story about, but I love telling stories with Andrea that illustrate the psychological landscape of the character’s we’re focusing on," Lemire told i09 of the series' inception. "And so, when the Joker came out, the idea of exploring the metaphorical, surreal, and psychological landscape that a Joker story could exist in, that was the starting point that got me excited. I didn’t want to be too heavy-handed or one-to-one with what happens in our story being a reflection of the real world today, but there are elements of chaos and fear in Killer Smile that I think are running rampant right now in our society, politically and socially."

	Citation:
	Editor Chris Conroy identified the two stories as 'album-format' titles on Twitter, though no series length has been specified. Joker: Killer Smile #1 is due out October 30, followed by The Question: The Deaths of Vic Sage #1 on November 20.

The Question par Cowan et Bill Sienkiewicz, j'en suis sans aucune hésitation !!! En plus j'adore ce personnage !



La série sur le Joker, je n'ai plus aucun intérêt pour ce personnage et Sorrentino ma foi, je n'aime pas assez pour me lancer.

Lui et Harley Quinn sont devenus les Deadpool de DC.

Voilà des projets qui méritent mon argent!

Mais doit-on supposer une pause ou une fin prochaine à Gideon Falls?

Je ne suis pas certain que la quête d'identité soit compatible avec l'objectivisme de Ditko (pour ce que j'en comprends).

Harley d'accord, mais tu me diras dans quels titres le Joker brise le quatrième mur.

Je voulais dire plutôt dans le sens où ils sont partout comme Deadpool y'a pas si longtemps chez Marvel.

Peut être voulait il parler d'une certaine omniprésence de ces deux personnages ? Ou bien de retour systématique de ce bad guy qui est devenu ultra violent en plus.
Deadpool j'aime pas non plus.
Question Batman, heureusement qu'il a encore assez souvent de très bons dessinateurs, sinon son omniprésence m'aurait déjà lassé complet.
