Citation :

SIGIL stars Samantha Rey, a 16-year-old girl from South Carolina who gets swept up in a war beyond her understanding and may possess the power to turn the tide in the form of a mysterious symbol on her chest even she doesn't understand. New York Times-best-selling writer Mike Carey teams with artist Leonard Kirk for this next great comics tale.

"SIGIL is epic fantasy on a colossal scale, ultimately spanning the whole of human history," says Carey. "It tells the story of a young girl who has inherited a unique talent and destiny from her dead mother and has also been enlisted without her knowledge or understanding in a war that spans all of space and time. The amazing Leonard Kirk is our [artist], so when I throw around all these adjectives about huge scope and epic scale, you know I'm not kidding."

On the other side of the Crossgen spectrum, RUSE plants you in the heart of mystery as the world's greatest detective, Simon Archard, meets the alluring and enigmatic Emma Bishop, a woman who may well be his match and launches him into the greatest caper of his career. The one and only Mark Waid writes while star on the rise Mirco Pierfederici provides art.

"Simon [may be] the world's greatest detective, but he's overlooking a mystery that's right under his nose: the secret that Emma is keeping would floor him," teases Waid. "Together, they solve impossible crimes in a series that's a little FANTASTIC FOUR, a little Sherlock Holmes, and a lot of mystery. This may be the most fun I've ever had writing."

Et voilà, Crossgen est reparti pour de bon, espérons que la qualité soit au rendez-vous.

Hum un petit Négation, Crux ou Scion ne serait pas de refus

In the war for forever, time is only an
obstacle.

chest makes her part of this war, but will she save us or damn all of
creation? New York Times best-selling scribe Mike Carey (Age of X, The
Unwritten) and Leonard Kirk (New Mutants) begin the next great comic
epic.

Things are about to get personal for the 19th century’s most spectacular supernatural crime solving team. Over the years, Detective Simon Archard had a long string of partners and assistants, none more talented and capable than Emma Bishop. She'll need her unique skills to survive --because there's a murderer in Partington who's targeting all of Archard's allies past… and present!

Ruse sortira sans aucun doute directement en librairie et quand je vois la qualité des dessins, je me dis que c'est on ne peut plus normal.

dommage que Guice ne soit pas aux dessins.

Il faut savoir que bien que reprenant les mêmes personnages et l'époque, la série n'aura pas de lien avec la précédente. Waid s'étant débarassé des contraintes que lui imposait Crossgen à savoir une planète différente (donc l'action se deroulera bien sur terre), et la marque du Sigil. Emma Bishop cachera bien quelque chose à Simon, mais ce ne sera pas la marque magique

CrossGen imposait des contraintes aux auteurs ?
Je ne connais rien à cet éditeur.

Ben un univers "partagé" ou chaque série se passait sur une planète différente et il fallait qu'un personnage au moins dans chacune porte la marque du sigil (le logo de l'éditeur) qui lui donne des pouvoirs. ça a permis un crossover avant que la boite coule. Je ne sais pas si il a eu le temps de se terminer. En tout cas ce serai cool que panini puisse sortir les TPB de Sojourn (quand Land était pas dégueu) et de Ruse

D'accord, merci. L'idée de relier les séries par un élément commun sans la lourdeur d'une planète ou d'une ville partagées me semble bonne.

le crossover sur 6 numéros n'en a connu que 2 avant que la boite ne ferme définitivement ses portes

Chaos avait connu la même chose avec Lady Death: Dark Alliance

SIGIL #3

Written by MIKE CAREY Penciled by LEONARD KIRK Cover by JELENA KEVIC-DJURDJEVIC

Two ships, the El Cazador and the Red Harvest, are neck and neck racing
for the same prize: a buried treasure that could be a millennia-old
secret weapon. Samantha Rey knows the way, but October is able to guess
her every move - and the Red Harvest doesn't have to stop when it runs
out of ocean...

RUSE #3

Written by MARK WAID Penciled by MIRCO PIERFEDERICI Cover by BUTCH GUICE

The City of Partington teeters on the brink of collapse when a deadly
string of gambits leaves Simon and Emma at their wit's end. And they're
the wittiest crime solving duo of the 19th century. The games are afoot
as Emma and Simon scramble for clues as to who is behind this conspiracy
of chaos--but they're coming up empty!
