Punisher : quand Greg Rucka appuie sur la gâchette - ComicsDiscovery S09E36

Quand un de nos scénaristes préférés prend les commandes du Punisher, impossible de ne pas plonger dedans. Dans cette version signée Greg Rucka, accompagnée des superbes planches de Marco Checchetto, on redécouvre Frank Castle dans une approche brute, viscérale, proche des origines. Ce récit, récemment réédité en Marvel Deluxe chez Panini Comics, mérite toute votre attention. Trigger Warning : émission chaotique en approcheSi vous aimez les podcasts bien structurés, aux plans millimétrés… fuyez tant qu'il est encore temps ! Avec Sophie, on est partis dans tous les sens — probablement un excès de caféine ce jour-là. Perso, c'est exactement le genre d'épisode que j'adore enregistrer. Mais si vous êtes plutôt du genre à organiser vos vacances en bullet points, préparez-vous à souffrir un peu. Le Punisher, l'anti-héros absoluÀ l'origine, Frank Castle est apparu comme un antagoniste de Spider-Man, imaginé par Gerry Conway, Ross Andru et John Romita Sr. Vétéran de l'armée, il rentre à New York où un drame va bouleverser sa vie : sa femme et ses enfants sont tués, pris entre deux feux lors d'un règlement de comptes entre gangs. Ce jour-là, Castle meurt symboliquement, laissant place à The Punisher, un spectre de vengeance qui écume les rues de la ville, éliminant les criminels sans aucune pitié. Rapidement, il affronte Spider-Man, puis d'autres héros de l'univers Marvel qui, bien qu'ils comprennent sa douleur, rejettent ses méthodes expéditives. Même dans Civil War, quand il tente de rejoindre l'équipe de Captain America, ses alliés rechignent à s'associer à un tueur de sang-froid. Greg Rucka : du polar noir à l'univers MarvelEn 2011, après plusieurs errances narratives (pouvoirs angéliques, version Frankenstein...), Marvel décide de revenir à l'essence du personnage. Pour ça, l'éditeur fait appel à Greg Rucka, maître du thriller et spécialiste des personnages complexes. Si vous écoutez ComicsDiscovery, vous l'avez déjà entendu dans Gotham Central, dont James vous parle à chaque saison. Avec cette série, Rucka redonne au Punisher son aura sombre et réaliste, en le plongeant dans une croisade contre le crime new-yorkais. Il introduit également Rachel Cole-Alves, une ancienne marine dont la vie bascule le jour de son mariage, quand une fusillade décime tous les invités. Seule survivante, elle devient le reflet de Castle, partageant sa soif de justice expéditive. Ensemble, ils remontent la piste d'une organisation criminelle implacable. Marco Checchetto : visuel coup-de-poingLe style de Marco Checchetto sublime le récit. Ses planches, à la fois froides, dynamiques et crues, capturent un New York poisseux et dangereux. Chaque séquence d'action frappe fort, avec un découpage fluide et immersif. Les personnages, eux, sont magnifiés par des cadrages iconiques et une narration visuelle impeccable. On saute de toit en toit, de ruelle en ruelle, comme projetés dans un thriller graphique musclé. Un thriller moralement ambiguGreg Rucka maîtrise le thriller comme peu d'auteurs de comics. Il ne cherche jamais à justifier les actes de Frank Castle, mais les interroge constamment. En adoptant le point de vue des personnages secondaires, notamment Rachel, il introduit un recul salutaire. Le Punisher reste un anti-héros : son combat a du sens, mais ses méthodes posent toujours question. Ce regard critique, loin de glorifier la violence, ancre l'œuvre dans une réflexion bien plus subtile qu'il n'y paraît. Et puis, franchement, un auteur qui excelle à écrire des personnages féminins forts, on ne va pas s'en plaindre. Envie de plus de Greg Rucka ?Si vous avez aimé son travail sur le Punisher, on vous recommande vivement d'écouter ces épisodes de ComicsDiscovery consacrés à d'autres œuvres marquantes de Greg Rucka : Lois Lane : Ennemie du peuple — Un thriller politique percutant avec une Lois Lane plus déterminée que jamais.

Es la HORA de las TORTAS!!!

Hemos oído hablar tantas veces de aquellas series de los 80 a punto de ser canceladas a los que llegaba un nuevo autor con una visión, las revolucionaba y convertía, no sólo en un éxito, sino en un clásico inmortal. El Daredevil de Frank Miller, La Cosa de Pantano de Moore, el Thor de Simonson… pero no es tan habitual una etapa de estas características en nuestro siglo. Cuando llegamos a finales de 2004, en un momento en el que estaba naciendo una nueva Marvel, el cambio de siglo no había sido especialmente amable con el Capitán América y las ventas no funcionaban. Fue entonces cuando llegó un guionista pujante, que se había granjeado cierta popularidad en DC con series como Batman, Catwoman o Gotham Central. Su nombre era Ed Brubaker y, para acompañarle, volvía a Marvel Steve Epting, un dibujante con una dilatada carrera con la casa de las ideas en series como Los Vengadores o Factor-X, que regresaba tras una temporada fuera. Mezclando la influencia de Steve Englehart o Jim Steranko con James Bond, Tom Clancy, El caso Bourne o la serie 24 e incorporando a lo gráfico los nuevos dictados que había venido marcando Bryan Hitch, nos daban una historia trepidante; una historia que mezclaba la tradición con una visión completamente nueva que se convertiría en un clásico instantáneo. Llegarían después para apoyar a Epting Butch Guice, Luke Ross. Mike Perkins, Michael Lark y tantos otros hasta dejar un total de 8 años de historias memorables en aquellos Estados Unidos muy marcados con el 11S y dejando surgir muchas de las aguas políticas en las que nadamos hoy en día y que Brubaker integra con la tradición del capi como si siempre hubieran formado parte. Más de 4 horas de monográfico para repasar este clásico moderno, que cumple 20 años. La noche es caliente como el infierno. Todo se te pega. Una asquerosa habitación de un asqueroso barrio de una asquerosa ciudad. El aparato de aire acondicionado es un pedazo de chatarra que no podría enfriar ni una bebida aunque la metieras dentro. Parece el sitio perfecto para escuchar el podcast 354 de ELHDLT Selección musical: 🎶 Real American, de Rick Derringer 🎶 Born In The U.S.A., de Bruce Springsteen 🎶 Season 3 Finale - Jack's Humanity , de Sean Callery (24 Banda sonora original)

Join us for an invigorating discussion about why Gotham Central is one of our picks for one of the top 25 DC comics of all time!

Cette semaine dans ComicsDiscovery votre podcast sur la bande dessinée américaine, on vous reparle d'un de notre duo créatif favori Ed Brubaker et Sean Phillips avec leur nouveau Comics : Night Fever qui sort chez Delcourt Comics. ComicsDiscovery Review Night Fever d'Ed Brubaker et Sean PhillipsCe n'est pas la première fois que nous parlons d'Ed Brubaker et Sean Phillips puisqu'on vous a parlé de Pulp (https://jamesetfaye.fr/comicsdiscovery-s05e37-pulp/) Reckless (https://jamesetfaye.fr/comicsdiscovery-s06e04-reckless/) Crinimal (https://jamesetfaye.fr/comicsdiscovery-s06e41-criminal/) et Incognito (https://jamesetfaye.fr/comicsdiscovery-s07e07-incognito/) avec le même duo créatif. Quand la crise de la quarantaine dérapeAlors qu'il est seul à Paris pour un voyage d'affaires, Jonathan Webb va suivre un couple masqué lors d'une soirée privée et voler l'identité de quelqu'un pour y accéder. Cet événement sera le premier d'une série d'événements en cascade qui entraîneront Jonathan dans une spirale de violence et de luxure. Le mystérieux Rainer, rencontré par Jonathan, lui fera découvrir un monde sans règles ni limites, et il se retrouvera pris dans un engrenage qui bouleversera sa vie. Une recette éculée ?Une grande partie de l'équipe de ComicsDiscovery est vraiment fan de l'écriture de Brubaker, que ce soit chez les Big Two avec Gotham Central ou sur Captain America, mais aussi en indépendant avec son collègue Sean Phillips. Ils ont créé des œuvres teintées de Polar Noir que nous avons adoré. Alors, est-ce que Night Fever est un nouveau thriller alléchant que vous n'arriverez pas à fermer avant la fin, ou est-ce simplement l'énième application de la même recette, utilisée au point de la connaître par cœur ? Nous répondons à cette question et à bien d'autres dans cet épisode de ComicsDiscovery.

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we begin a new series on 2009's Rocksteady breakout, Batman: Arkham Asylum. We set the game in its time, as well as introducing its principals, and talk a bit about one man's fandom. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: Roughly up to first Scarecrow encounter Issues covered: introducing the center of the madness, returning to these two, mythology and archetype, the games of 2009, some early Rocksteady history, coming out of the shadows, developing their process, taking on the superhero genre, licensed titles and not overcoming them, replicating game designs to the license, something finally living up to or exceeding expectations, a long digression into superhero cinema, seeing the attention to detail, pre-code comics and other Brett comic history, a small development team, puzzle box, comparing team sizes, a time with fewer new sorts of games, the August window, great voice cast and writing, seeing signs that they really care, narrative design and other writers, getting a lot of mileage from the voice cast, setting up the story, a big plan from the Joker, introducing Arkham as the location, constraining Batman to present the Joker, not your typical Batman universe, exaggerated characters, a simple setup/trope, establishing a new look for Harley Quinn, other influences for the art direction, "I admire its purity," the clear proof of concept in vertical slice, what a vertical slice, solving major production questions, a good tutorial room vs one that works less well, having all the elements, how Batman has stealth, using fantasy in the checkpointing, impacting later Batmen, filling a Pokedex.  Games, people, and influences mentioned or discussed: Dungeons and Dragons, Cesar Romero, Jack Nicholson, Heath Ledger, Joaquin Phoenix, DC and Marvel, The Batman, Robert Pattinson, Sega, Michael Keaton, Batman: The Animated Series, PlayStation, Jamie Fristrom, Insomniac, Uncharted 2, Borderlands, Demons's Souls, Ratchet & Clank, Brutal Legend, League of Legends, Assassin's Creed II, Infamous, Eye of the Beholder, Dragon Age: Origins, Left 4 Dead 2, New Super Mario Bros Wii, Bayonetta, Rocksteady, Urban Chaos, Warner Bros, Eidos, Crystal Dynamics, Jamie Walker, Sefton Hill, Argonaut Games, Ubisoft, Star Wars, Electronic Arts, Lord of the Rings, Godfather, Batman Begins, Christopher Nolan, Tim Burton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, Joel Schumacher, Peter Jackson, Superman 64, Freedom Force, Grant Morrison, Dave McKean, Sandman, V for Vendetta, Watchmen, X-Men, Ben Affleck, Metroidvania, Fallout 3, Bethesda Game Studios, Dark Souls, BioShock, Madden, Baldur's Gate III, Larian Studios, Paul Dini, Kevin Conroy, Mark Hamill, Arlene Sorkin, Adrienne Barbeau, Half-Life, John Cena, Steve Austin, The Rock, Alan Moore, Frank Miller, The Dark Knight Returns, Alex Ross, Gotham Central, Gears of War, Tomb Raider, Alien, Penny Arcade, Sam Fisher, Thief, Flight of the Conchords, Kirk Hamilton, Aaron Evers, Mark Garcia.  Next time: More!

Is there a Gotham City without Batman? Gotham Central written in collaboration by Greg Rucka and Ed Brubaker gives us a unique perspective from the detectives of G.C.P.D Major Crimes Unit. This anthology of cohesively written stories establishes the detectives that are hitting the streets, and searching for answers to crimes living in the shadow of Batman. These characters struggle with fighting for legitimacy, while doing their jobs before Batman can swoop in to save the day. The G.C.P.D fights to answer the question how villains' are made as they combat not only villain's from Batman's history, but also work to solve murders, cold cases, find missing persons, and so much more. With the art of Michael Lark, Stefano Gaudiano and Kano, this team establishes a modern crime noir story based in DC Comics fan favorite city of Gotham that makes it feel gritty, but authentic in order to focus on the story while investing in characters who you will eager to buckle in for the ride ahead. Batman has nothing on the detectives of the G.C.P.D. Not if this incredible collaborative team has anything to say about it.

Not many Prometheus and Ollie - round one Prometheus has skills; does cool special flip (Ollie recognizes it; he learned it from a woman in Russia) Wild Dog shoots weapon out of Prometheus's hand, but Artemis shoots his guns Prometheus disappears with Artemis Prometheus and Ollie - round two Action is cut with flashback from 4 years ago Prometheus has dead bodies posed just like how Ollie killed them Its super creepy and really helps to amp up the tension Fight up escalator (flashback) Prometheus able to escape; makes Billy Malone look and sound like him Similar to the Joker's hostages in The Dark Knight Flashbacks: Share your thoughts 4 years ago - Ollie as The Hood Killing people; The List Diggle knows Ollie is The Hood Ollie after Justin Claybourne, who manufactured weaponized TB in order to sell medicine for it Diggle warns Ollie that his actions could have unintended consequences Red pen! Felicity is awkward and cute when she helps Ollie find address (1852) Ollie:   Has he learned after all this time? Brings team to first fight w/Prometheus Goes alone when find Prometheus again - why? Being confronted with past makes him act like that again - he kills Prometheus instead of putting an arrow in his knee Does he have to kill Prometheus? Confesses to team the truth First instinct is to push everyone away The expression on his face when he sees HER in the Arrowcave Diggle Active in flashback Leads group hug at end when Ollie wants to push everyone away Is called by Lyla to safe house Is taken in by soldiers Thea Feels as though the Dominators dream renewed her purpose Tells Ollie that we leave good and bad legacies Suits up as Speedy! Is this a onetime thing after the reveal of Artemis' betrayal? Felicity Awkwardly introduces Billy to friends; suggest double date w/Ollie Tells Billy not to investigate Prometheus; Billy does anyway because that's his job Billy sends her photo of baby - is looping her in on what he finds Blames Prometheus for Billy's death Quentin Lance Not in episode Curtis Has lied to husband Paul - doing a start up with Felicity Tells hubby the truth - Paul gives ultimatum Realizes being Mr. Terrific gives him purpose Paul leaves b/c can't see him go off every night and risk life Wild Dog “I don't like rules or listening” Does the opposite Ollie instructs (maybe Ollie pulls an “opposite day” move) Is he a father? Artemis Gives Rene, Rory, and Diggle stockings with their code names Says guys are her only family Betrays Oliver because city needs protecting from him Ragman Makes Flashpoint joke Figures out how to sequence DNA D.A. Adrian Chase Really wants Prometheus dealt with Puts kill order on Prometheus Susan Williams Ollie's date to the Christmas party Drinks Russian vodka Russian writing on the bottle is centered on screen, is this a hint? Tells Ollie shutting people out is not a good thing to do Has sexytimes with Ollie Laurel Is this due to Barry and Flashpoint? Or maybe due to Legends of Tomorrow where Sara revealed Damian's future so now he is travelling time to avert it. Bratva Not in episode Prometheus Leads? - A whole bunch At least 30 years old Justin Claybourne's son - ???? Seems too easy if this is the case Son not publicly known - mentioned in divorce papers Has studied Oliver for four years How does he(?) know that Ollie killed his father and studied fighting in Russia? When did he(?) find out all of this about Ollie? Is it Claybourne's son? Could it be someone else who just knows about what Ollie has done when he was The Hood and was working off of The List? Tied to The List He sounds like Michael Dorn to Chris (reddit seems to agree) Michelle's List O'Suspects: (I'm keeping this active until the mask comes off) Tommy Merlyn - Not likely now. In Ollie's Dementor vision as someone proud of Ollie New: Susan Williams - if the Claybourne son thing is a red herring; then it could be her; she is old enough, drinks Russian vodka, and has finally confirmed Ollie was in Russia. Maybe her real name isn't SW Robert Queen - too old? But is the author of The List. In Ollie's Dementor vision as someone proud of Ollie. New: It's actually Claybourne's son Adrian Chase (but more likely to become Vigilante) Billy Malone - dead Helena Bertinelli (but I would rather see her as either Huntress or head of the Bertinelli family) Isabel Rochev Mckenna Hall Shado - not Claybourne's child and not really connected to The List Slade Wilson - not tied to The List Talia al Ghul (see this week's news) New: Quentin Lance (likely a red herring) (in rehab) Roy - too young and in Ollie's Dementor vision as someone proud of Ollie; also, not really tied to The List Viktor (SP's add) - too old   CURRENT EPISODE DC EASTER EGGS & POP CULTURE REFERENCES Season Episode  “What We Leave Behind” (Date: 08 Dec 2016) Article: http://comicbook.com/2016/12/08/arrow-easter-eggs-and-things-you-might-have-missed-in-the-season/      JUDAS CONTRACT - A young, female team member who is recruited into Team Arrow and then seduced to the dark side and ends up becoming a sleeper agent for the villain is pretty much exactly the plot to the classic New Teen Titans storyline The Judas Contract. OLIVER'S CHRISTMAS MOVIES - According to Stephen Amell's recent Facebook Live video, he shares Oliver's favorite Christmas movie (Die Hard) and the "Its true!" he delivered after saying so in the episode was actually a Stephen Amell-ism, not Oliver Queen's. His second choice, It's a Wonderful Life, is an interesting one considering..."I was very lucky to be able to rewatch that movie last week."...which of course is not a thing that happened. He was  subjected to a kind of custom-made It's a Wonderful Life, where the Dominators showed him a whole different timeline and how his life and the lives of those around him might be different if he had made different decisions. BIG BELLY BURGER - The mention is because the to-go bag for the DC Universe's favorite burger joint was the focus of a shot that hung on for a few seconds AND transitioned from the present day to the flashbacks. That's a lot of camera time for a fast food container. CLAYBOURNE - While Justin Claybourne's name did in fact appear on The List, we never saw him dealt with in season 1 and all of the scenes here that were calling back to the first year of the series were entirely new material. This, of course, opens up the question of whether we might see some more such stories in flashbacks for future episodes...! ALMOST EVERY WEDNESDAY - "People who are supposed to be dead turn out to be alive almost every Wednesday." Weirdly enough never during the summer or between mid-December and late January, though. THE HOOD - Oliver's season 1 costume, the kill list, the sets, the mission, his arguments with Diggle...this is what it was like when he was The Hood and not Green Arrow. THE RED PEN - The red pen is a nice callback to some of Felicity Smoak's earliest appearances, and that makes it worth breaking out to talk separately about "IT Girl Felicity," back when Oliver was still making up outlandish stories to get her help instead of just coming clean with her. AK DESMOND PHARMACEUTICAL - It seems worth noting, since Dr. Alchemy is such a big part of The Flash this season, that A.K. Desmond Pharmaceutical could plausibly be considered a wink-and-a-nod reference to Albert Desmond, a chemist who would go on to become Dr. Alchemy in the comics. Unlikely, but possible! MAKE THE CITY GREAT AGAIN - Obviously in his final moments, when Claybourne is trying to appeal to Oliver's ideas about "saving the city," he says that businesses like his can "make the city great again," which in the context of the last years' worth of public life feels suspiciously like a reference to Donald Trump's "make America great again" campaign slogan. ARROW NEWS:   ARROW FANS HAVE ALREADY SEEN SEASON 5'S FINAL SCENE — OR HAVE THEY? (Date: 05 Dec 2016) Now that “Arrow” has reached season five and has no plans of slowing down, the plan has changed slightly. As Guggenheim said, “Spoiler alert. That's (Ollie's rescue from Lian Yu) going to end up being the Season 5 finale.” Season five's flashback story arc will still end by replaying the first moments of the series, but there's now much more show to come after that moment in season six and beyond. But just because fans saw how season five will end five years ago doesn't mean there aren't surprises still ahead at the end of this season. Guggenheim added that the creators have “some incredibly clear plans for what we want to do in the Season 5 finale,” but that they always leave wiggle room for surprises and cliffhangers.

"For me, I like the idea of Felicity not defining herself through her relationship with a man," Ramsey told the crowd. "I like the idea that she can be her own person, and she can be strong and feminine, own the company, without pining over men — Oliver or any other man."

Amell said that tonight's script was the first in a long time that legitimately shocked him when he turned the page to that reveal. He also said that he was skeptical at first of the idea of bringing another character back from the dead, but that they're now several episodes down the line in production and that he thinks the story that comes out of it is a good one.

For the week of November 28, the CW was up 20% in total viewers versus the same week last year, up 15% in adults 18-49 (0.7 vs. 0.6) and up 16% in adults 18-34 (0.6 vs. 0.5), according to Nielsen stats. Supergirl had its most-watched (3.5M) episode of the season, and matched its season premiere ratings in both adults 18-34 (0.9/4) and adults 18-49 (1.1/4). The Flash saw its most-watched episode (4.15M) in almost two years (12/9/14) and its highest rated episode of the season. Arrow delivered the series' most watched (3.55M) and highest-rated episode since last season's crossover episode (12/2/15). And DC's Legends of Tomorrow had its most-watched episode ever (3.39M) and its highest-rated episode ever in adults 18-34 (1.0/5).

More fun-loving prankster than straightforward villain, Mxyzptlk's fifth-dimensional technology appears as magic to three-dimensional beings; the limits of his powers are vast and unknown. Famously, he can only be stopped and returned to his home dimension by tricking him into saying his name backward (“Kltpzyxm”).   Link:http://www.cbr.com/mister-mxyzptlk-to-materialize-on-supergirl/    How “Supergirl” And A Super-Duper Gay Comic Book Clerk Helped Save A Girl's Life (Date: 04 Dec 2016) Mary, a “super-duper gay” employee at a comic book shop in Indiana, shared an encounter she had with a young woman. The girl said she was suicidal because she's gay, and she didn't realize gay women could be happy until she saw the Alex Danvers coming out arc on Supergirl. To help the girl out through the hiatus, the employees suggested  Batwoman: Elegy, Midnighter, and Gotham Central. The girl didn't have money for all of the titles, so the employee bought them for her.

While Hamill was filming Star Wars: The Force Awakens, a new TV version of The Flash was coming together. Three years later, against all odds, he and the producers have found a way for Hamill to make an appearance as James Jesse in each midseason finale so far.

And Kara says, ‘I think you wanna meet my sister.' Just the idea of starting the Sara/Alex [Chyler Leigh] shippers going … Link:http://comicsalliance.com/supergirl-legends-crossover-deleted-scenes/ Fallout from the Superhero Crossover (Date: 3 Dec 2016) WILL SUPERGIRL VISIT EARTH-1 AGAIN? | Now that Kara has a way to communicate and travel across Earths, crossovers are certainly “easier” to execute, Kreisberg says. “The next time we do it, it means it doesn't necessarily have to be because Oliver and Barry need Kara; it could be because Kara needs them.” However, the EP notes that nothing is in the works, seeing as how “we just barely survived this one. So we're not too concerned with what we're going to try to do next year. But it just gives us another way to come at a story.” DOES THE WORLD KNOW ETs EXIST? | A line was cut for time, in which the G-man known as “Glasses” says, “‘Cover up what? A dozen weather satellites falling out of orbit?'” Guggenheim explains: “People see the ships, but no one ever really saw the Dominators. The way we're sort of playing it going forward is that Glasses is good at his job, and when he says he's going to cover it up, he's going to cover it up.” Adds Kreisberg: “There's a mention of it in The Flash, that the threat of aliens brought out all the crazies. But we're sort of Doctor Who-ing it.” Link:http://tvline.com/2016/12/01/legends-of-tomorrow-recap-season-2-episode-7-crossover-dominators-return/ GREEN ARROW COMICS & TOY NEWS X-MEN: GOLD AND BLUE ROSTERS AND CREATIVE TEAMS REVEALED (Date: 28 Nov 2016) X-Men: Gold will be written by Marc Guggenheim with art by Ardian Syaf. The phase-shifting Kitty Pryde at long-last will become an X-Men team leader, whose squad includes Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Old Man Logan, and Rachel Grey. “Kitty is the right person to bring the X-Men into the future, to herald in the next era of the X-Men,” Guggenheim told us in a phone interview. “We are post the war with the Inhumans. The X-Men are sort of at a crossroads. They're at a point where they are trying to decide, is there a future for the X-Men? And Kitty is very much of the mindset that there is a future for the X-Men and it's a bright future.”  Guggenheim is best known as co-showrunner and writer on The CW's Arrow and Legends of Tomorrow and previously worked on the adjectiveless X-Men book in 2014 featuring an all-female cast of characters.
