X-Men Legacy (vol.2) #1-24 [Nouvelle série]

Preview du #1 :

Etrange... est ce qu'on est dans l'esprit de Légion comme dans différents arcs d'X-Men Legacy et New Mutants

Même pas commencée que cette série donne déjà mal à la tête.

X-MEN LEGACY #6
SIMON SPURRIER (W) • JORGE MOLINA (A)
Cover by MIKE DEL MUNDO
• The groundbreaking first arc of X-MEN: LEGACY ends here!
• Discovering a plot to assassinate one of the X-Men that he inadvertently put into motion, Legion infiltrates the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning…but after their last run-in, will the X-Men accept his help?
• Meanwhile, Legion learns that the demon lurking in the depths of his psyche has a familiar face…

Encore une excellente couverture !

Une variant cover du #3 :

Je suis très agréablement surpris par le X-Men Legacy #1. Simon Spurrier parvient à bien caractériser le personnage principal et à rapidement construire quelques concepts intéressants autour de Legion, même si certains disparaissent déjà à la fin de l'épisode. Le rythme de ce dernier est bien construit, tout sonne juste et le personnage principal, qui ne m'a jamais intéressé, trouve un peu de contenu et de force dans ce numéro.
Tan Eng Huat livre de jolies planches, son style et la colorisation cadrent bien avec l'atmosphère de l'histoire. Je suis curieux de lire la suite, c'est en tout cas un bon début !

Pas con d'associer Blindfold a cette série... Histoire que ca soit encore plus métaphysique !

D'ailleurs je trouve que Legion a besoin d'alliés ! De préférence quelqu'un qu'on connaît déjà...
