Voilà.
Si tout va bien, Helen of Wyndhorn va rafler plein de prix à tous les niveaux.
Après, ça manque de Mazrk waid et de Dan Mora.

[mugiwaraya]

Du peu que j'ai lu dans la liste, y a que Fantastic Four et Seach & Destroy qui me convainquent.
A la rigueur Wonder Woman de King, mais là où j'en suis (#4) y a de gros défauts de scénario. Enfin, je veux bien qu'ils soient comblés par les autres qualités.
Helen de je mets un Y pour faire cool, si c'est aussi bon que Supergirl de la même équipe, je peux comprendre aussi.
Par contre, Ultimate Spider-Man et Kagurabachi, c'est une blague.

[ollieno]

[Fred le mallrat]

Absolute batman??????
Je ne lis que de meilleures series

[Hilarion]

• The Road, by Cormac McCarthy, adapted by Manu Larcenet (Abrams)

[ollieno]

(bon

j'ai voté, spoiler Alert, en majorité pour Fantagraphics )

[bukowski]

Il n'y a que pour la série continue, à savoir Fantastic four que j'ai un avis tranché ! C'est vraiment MA série préférée depuis sa relance ! Je sais que je saoule tout le monde avec ça mais vraiment, il faut lire cette série qui comporte de la vraie SF, avec de vrais sentiments et des interactions inédites entres certains personnages. Les meilleurs épisodes depuis Byrne !

Sinon, comme Hilarion, je croise les doigts pour Larcenet !

J'ai lu 3 épisodes des FF de North, pas mauvais (bien moins que ceux de Slott) mais pas suffisant pour me donner envie de lire plus avant (comme pour Thor..ces 2 séries doivent être les 2 meilleurs series marvel du moment); j'ai préféré donner mon vote à SANTOS SISTERS

Pour Manu, j ai voté 2 fois (Best adaptation from another Medium et Best Penciler/inker)
