Tales of the Hexagonverse (comics)

release date: Oct 01, 2021
Tales of the Hexagonverse (comics)
Hexagon Comics isn''t merely Wampus, Zembla, Phenix, and the Strangers. For well over sixty years, they published a number of anthology comics in the tradition of DC''s Mystery in Space, Strange Adventures, etc., with colorful titles such as Yuma, Nevada, Mustang, Rodeo... In addition to the regular hero-driven series, these books also contained many one-shots: war stories, western adventures, supernatural tales, etc. A few of the characters who first appeared in these eventually returned, but most never went beyond these initial appearances. In this book, we have translated and reprinted five of these one-shots, published between 2000 and 2003. Only two have ever been published in the U.S. before and, as they were all drawn by remarkable artists, we felt that they deserved greater exposure. Contents: Phantom Of Which Opera?

He can change into any form by merely touching water, and revert to type by coming into contact with fire. His only adversary seems to be a French ex-secret agent named Jean Sten, whom, in typical Invaders tradition, no one believes. In this third and final issue, Wampus travels to the ends of time for his final duel with Jean Sten, which will decide once and for all the fate of the Earth. Guest-stars: Kabur, Gallix, C.L.A.S.H., the Time Brigade and more. Six thrilling stories by Jean-Marc Lofficier, illustrated by Luciano Bernasconi, plus two extra bonus stories.

Le dico des super héros

Le dico des super héros
A comme Aquaman. B comme Batman, C comme Captain America. D comme Daredevil... Depuis soixante-quinze ans, les super-héros ont envahi l''imaginaire populaire et conquis tous les territoires, en Amérique, en France, en Europe, dans les librairies, les salles obscures et les consoles de jeux vidéo. Il est temps, aujourd''hui, de rendre hommage à cette population disparate et pourtant si reconnaissable, de justiciers aux costumes colorés et aux pouvoirs spectaculaires. Surhommes solaires, combattants nocturnes, super-patriotes et super-soldats, êtres de flammes et d''eau, défenseurs venus du futur ou du passé, aventuriers dimensionnels ou pirates de l''espace, et jusqu''aux parodies et aux animaux parlants, ils sont tous là. Provenant de la bouillante Amérique ou issus des traditions européennes, nés dans l''imaginaire atomique japonais ou dans le folklore des catcheurs mexicains, ils sont tous rassemblés dans ce dictionnaire des super-héros, qui rend compte de l''infinie variété du genre. Ils sont nés après l''apparition de Super-man en 1938 ou avant l''arrivée du surhomme de Krypton sur Terre, certains dans les comic books et d''autres dans les feuilletons populaires européens. Mais, de Spider-Man au Nyctalope, de Wonder Woman à Diabolik, en passant par Doc Savage, Benoît Brisefer, Sailor Moon, Submerman, Zarga, Fautai, Blue Demon, Photonik, Mikros, L''Homme de l''Atlantide ou Super-Dupont, tous témoignent de la difficulté à définir le genre "super-héros", tant ses expressions et ses modèles sont divers. Ils brossent ensemble un portrait composite et inattendu d''une figure aujourd''hui au centre de l''imaginaire populaire et à la croisée des genres, le portrait robot d''un personnage que ce dictionnaire invite à redécouvrir dans toutes ses facettes : le super-héros !
