The X-Men promise to make this one of the hottest winters ever! When last we saw Darkchylde, she had claimed the throne of Limbo as her own. And now she's determined to get her soul back, even if she has to conquer Earth in the process. Can the combined forces of the X-Men stop her rampage? They'll have to fight through every demon in Limbo to try.

Très jolie cover, j'adore !!!

Les couleurs sont superbes, de même que les couleurs !!!

et aussi les couleurs!

Allez, j'espère que Maddie sera aussi de retour!

NRAMA: Let's talk about your corner of the Marvel Universe. What do you want to tell people about your upcoming four-issue mini-series, X-Infernus?

CBC: It comes out in December, and it's kind of a follow-up to Inferno. It's not as big as Inferno was -- it's not all-encompassing; it's an X-specific event. We're going to be focusing on Illyana, Pixie, Nightcrawler, Wolverine and Colossus for the most part, but all the other X-Men will be involved, as will a lot of the New Mutants and the New X-Men kids that people have been asking about that they haven't been seeing a lot.

And we're going down into Limbo and we're going to deal with what's been left over with Illyana/Magik and her soul and Belasco, and just all kinds of loose ends in the magic universe that people have been asking to be tied up. And hopefully, when we come out, the quote I've been saying is that magic with a "C" and Magik with a "K" will both be back in a big way in Marvel in the beginning of 2009.

NRAMA: Will this lead into something else for you down the road?

CBC: Hopefully. Nothing specific just yet. But Illyana will be coming back in some way, shape or form, and there's going to have to be someone to pick her reins up in the Marvel Universe. So there's been some talk about how that might happen, although nothing's been decided yet. And the ramifications will be felt in the X-books, so hopefully it will lead to some other X-projects for me. Fingers crossed.

I don't understand T.T

Rien qui n'aie déjà été dit...

X-Infernus, suite de Inferno (I), mais en moins grand. Principaux acteurs : Illyana, Pixie, Colossus, Wolverine, Diablo. On verra des anciens Nouveaux Mutants aussi et des X-Babies.

Et on comprendra pourquoi on nous parle de Magik avec un "K" et Magic avec un "C"...

Et CBC espère que ça débouchera sur d'autres projets X, étant donné que ça aura des repercussions sur la suite des histoires...

X-INFERNUS #2 (of 4)

Cover by DAVID FINCH
Darkchilde comes calling to the X-Men’s doorstep—and she’s not leaving without her Soulsword. The next pulse-pounding issue by C.B. Cebulski (LONERS, Drain) and Giuseppe Cammuncoli (MS. MARVEL, Intimates) is here and it’s shaking up the X-Men in a big way.

Let’s begin with an assortment of queries from Faded Day, who was curious about individuals that fans might see in “X-Men: X-Infernus.”

1) Will "X-Infernus" mark the return of other characters besides Magik?

Yes, Magik will not be the only character returning in “X-Infernus.” I won't reveal if that means returning from the dead or from other certain places unknown in the Marvel universe, but some faces not seen in a long time will be popping up come December.

2) Your Karma story in "X-Men: Manifest Destiny" re-teams you with awesome artist David Yardin, who you previously worked with during "X-Men: Divided We Stand.” Will Mr. Yardin continue to beautify our gene-freaks in the future?

That's really up to Marvel Editorial, Faded. My two collaborations with David have both been wonderful experiences and I would love to work with him again on something! I have a few new projects I'll be pitching soon and will definitely recommend David as the artist I want to bring my future scripts to life.

3) Despite the distance between Detroit and San Francisco, will X-Factor somehow be involved in the "X-Infernus" crossover?

Unfortunately not. Peter David has big plans for X-Factor, and Madrox and Co. will be too busy up in the Motor City to travel down to San Fran — or to Limbo for that matter — to help out during “X-Infernus.”

AllThatsGeek also had a character request they wanted to see -- as more than just body art!

Just a quick question regarding “The Return of Magik” — I am a huge Colossus fan (to the point of having him tattooed on my leg). How involved is Pete going to be with this arc? I have to believe he will show up somewhere, but will it be a "Oh yeah, here's the brother" cameo, or something a little more front and center (something nobody seems to really do with him anymore)?

First off, please send us a pic of that tattoo, geek! And yes, you'll be happy to hear that Colossus is one of the driving forces behind “X-Infernus,” and Piotr will be front and center in all four issues.

1) I’ve heard that the New X-Men show up in “Infernus.” Will any of them play major roles? It seems that Pixie should figure largely into the mix as Illyana made a dagger out of part of her soul.

Yes, Pixie is indeed one of the major players in “X-Infernus,” as you guess, and Mercury also has a large part to play as well. A few of the other X-kids will be showing up too.

2) It also seems the New Mutants should be making an appearance in this book, as they were Illyana’s best friends. Will they figure into the mix?

I don't want to give too much away, but a few of them will, yes.

3) I know Kitty is “off in space,” but is there any chance her presence will be felt in the story, as she knew Illyana best and was closest with her?

You'll just have to wait and see on that front, Kroller.

4) I read all of the “New X-Men” stories and enjoyed them, but the one that involved Magik left me a bit confused (I’m sorry to say). It almost seemed to say that the Illyana/Magik we saw wasn’t the one we knew (or something like that). Plus, she needs to make soulstones to escape limbo? Could you give us a Cliff Notes explanation?

My fingers need their strength for typing scripts, so try this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illyana_Rasputin

Why the convoluted return for Magik? Limbo had at least two variants of each X-Man and up till “Inferno” only one Illyana. Why not just say the 'real' Magik had been in Limbo all this time and leave it at that?

All will be revealed in time, Nancy Boy.

I really enjoyed the original “Inferno,” but at the same time I was very disappointed that a terrific character like Madelyne Pryor was written off. Is there any chance she might return?

Possibly, but not in “X-Infernus.”

1) You've said that in “X-Infernus” Illyana will be taking on kind of a “Madelyne Pryor” role. In that case, will anyone be taking on the role Jean played in “Inferno”?

Again, yes, but I can't answer as to who just yet for fear of spoiling the story.

1) Is “X-Infernus” going to be a self-contained story like “Onslaught Reborn” or will other X-books tie for an issue or two, like “House of M”?

“X-Infernus” will be self-contained, and released as a four issue mini-series starting in December. Ramifications will be felt in the other X-books as we go though.

Il me semble que l'on avait déja posté cet interview......

X-Infernus : J. Scott Campbell Variant Cover for #1

Oh my... trop belle(s) !!

Pas mal en effet. Bon images un peu trop grandes pour le forum, et le bassin est tout de même un peu énorme de mon avis. Mais l'ensemble est tout de même assez joli et fait son petit effet...

Espérons que l'histoire tienne la route, depuis le temps qu'on l'annonce maintenant...

Campbell

Elle a accouché combien de fois depuis qu'on ne l'a pas vue, la pauvre Illyana?

c'est que maintenant que vous decouvrez Campbell?

Non, moi ça fait des années que je n'aime pas ses dessins, mais plus pour les visages que pour les bassins éléphantesques (que je n'avais pas encore remarqués chez lui).

Si on a le malheur de ne pas bien connaître un truc que Nate lui connaît parfaitement, je ne vous dis pas le litige Bizarrement dans le cas inverse, ça produit jamais le même effet.

Campbell me dit quelque chose... Mais j'avoue (très humblement et sans honte : j'ai des limites comme tout un chacun) ne pas bien le connaître, ni lui, ni son oeuvre...

Mais si j'aime bien les visages qu'il présente ici, je suis tout à fait d'accord avec Mugiwara pour les bassins éléphantesques. Je l'ai dit, ça m'a choqué aussi dans le dessin d'Illyana.

Campbell dessine toujours des femmes "arrondies", poitrine, hanches et fesses, avec des grands yeux et des visages assez expressifs.
Je conseille de lire sa série phare "Danger Girl". Sinon il a dessiné Gen13 et wildsiderz (dont on attends la fin) et un nombre impressionnant de couvertures

Oui, c'est le créateur d'une des séries phares de Wildstorm.
J'ai un pote qui est dingue de Danger Girl, mais moi je ne supporte pas.
Y a aussi un projet de mini série Spider Man par Campbell et Loeb, si je ne me trompe, mais ça a été annoncé il y a des lustres et ma soeur Anne ne voit toujours rien venir.

oui, et avant il doit finir Wildsiderz (moins passionnant que DG).

Hmm décidément, ça sort de partout en ce moment

On dirait un modèle pour une future figurine.
Sinon le dessin est potable je trouve.

ça ressemble à un gros fanart

Avec la mention "Women of Marvel"...

en quoi ça le fait qu'il y ai "Women of Marvel" empêcherait que ce soit un fan-art ?
