Elektra est morte dans les bras de Matt Murdock, alias Daredevil. Mais le Diable Rouge a des doutes... Et si la Main essayait de la ressusciter ? L'un des récits cultes d'Elektra par son créateur : Frank Miller.

Elektra renaît à la vie

« Nous sommes en 490 avant J. C. Poséidon est mal luné. Il le fait savoir à quelques visiteurs indésirables. Un petit groupe de Perses. Une centaine d'hommes, pas plus. Venus sonder nos défenses... Ou peut-être assassiner notre chef. » 

Ainsi débute la célèbre bataille de Marathon, première victoire des grecs sur l'armée Perse. Et première pierre du nouveau récit de Frank Miller, qui revient sur cette période historique après son ouvrage 300, en reprenant les moments marquants des guerres menées par le Roi des rois, Darius, dont l'empire s'étendait, durant plus de deux siècles, de l'Asie Centrale au golfe persique et à la mer Égée, et ses successeurs, Xerxès en particulier, face à la Grèce.

Xerxes

Mutant doté d'un facteur autoguérisseur et de sens aiguisés, Logan est utilisé comme cobaye lors d'une expérimentation top secrète menée par le gouvernement canadien. Il en ressort avec un squelette recouvert d'un métal indestructible, l'adamantium, qui fait de lui un des êtres les plus dangereux de la planète. X-Men solitaire, il est le meilleur dans sa partie.

Sin City (Frank Miller's Sin City, #1)

The Dark Knight Strikes Again is Frank Miller's follow-up to his hugely successful Batman: the Dark Knight Returns, one of the few comics that is widely recognized as not only reinventing the genre but also bringing it to a wider audience.Set three years after the events of The Dark Knight Returns, The Dark Knight Strikes Again follows a similar structure: once again, Batman hauls himself out of his self-imposed retirement in order to set things right. However, where DKR was about him cleaning up his home city, Gotham, DKSA has him casting his net much wider: he's out to save the world. The thing is, most of the world doesn't realize that it needs to be saved--least of all Superman and Wonder Woman, who have become little more than superpowered enforcers of the status quo. So, the notoriously solitary Batman is forced to recruit some different superpowered allies. He also has his ever-present trusty sidekick, Robin, except that he is a she, and she is calling herself Catwoman. Together, these super-friends uncover a vast and far-reaching conspiracy that leads to the President of the United States (Lex Luthor) and beyond.The Dark Knight Strikes Again is largely an entertaining comic, but much of what made The Dark Knight Returns so good just doesn't work here. Miller's gritty, untidy artwork was perfect for DKR's grim depiction of the dark and seedy Gotham City, but it jars a bit for DKSA, which is meant to depict an ultra-glossy, futuristic technocracy. Lynn Varley's garish coloring attempts to add a slicker sheen, but the artwork is ultimately let down by that which worked so well for DKR--this time around, it just feels sloppy and rushed. The same is true of the book's denouement, which happens so quickly that it leaves the reader reeling and looking for more of an explanation. Moreover, DKSA is packed full of characters who will mean little to those unfamiliar with the DC Comics universe (e.g., the Atom, the Elongated Man, the Question). Perhaps the book's biggest failing is that where The Dark Knight Returns gave comic book fans a base from which to evangelize to theuninitiated, The Dark Knight Strikes Again is just preaching to the converted. Comic book superhero fans will find much to enjoy here, but others would be better off sticking with the original. --Robert Burrow

Dark Knight 2 tome 1: La relève (Batman DK2, #1)

L'art mythique du grand Franck Miller et la plume acérée de Thomas Wheeler ! 

Nimue a échappé au massacre de son village. Sa mère, avant de mourir, l'a chargée d'une mission: remettre l'épée du pouvoir à Merlin, le sorcier redoutable. Accompagnée d'Arthur, faux chevalier menteur et séducteur, Nimue sent grandir en elle la magie noire et ancestrale de l'épée. L'arme fait d'elle une combattante féroce, rebelle et le seul espoir de son peuple: la Sorcière Sang-de-loup. Mais Nimue n'est qu'à l'aube de son destin.

Cursed. La rebelle

Sin City, Vol. 1: The Hard Goodbye (Sin City, #1)

Batman est vieux, perclus de douleurs, aigri. Et pourtant, il va vivre sa plus belle aventure, celle qui va le propulser de nouveau au sommet. Nous sommes à Gotham, dans un futur proche. Les deux grands sont au bord d'une nouvelle guerre nucléaire. Les gangs font la loi. Les super-héros ont été bannis. Seul reste Superman mais il a vendu son âme et n'est plus que le bras armé de la Maison Blanche. Voilà dix ans que le "bat-signal" n'avait pas illuminé le ciel. Batman va rendosser sa cape pour un dernier combat... Par son génie du découpage alambiqué, par ses textes ciselés qui nous font vivre avec les héros, par l'ambiguïté de ses personnages, (Batman doute, prend des coups, s'engage dans des combats douteux), Frank Miller déniaise et revitalise le monde des comics. Et réussit l'impossible : faire vivre des super-héros dans la réalité quotidienne des lecteurs adultes. Les quatre épisodes, sortis en 1986 aux États-Unis, se sont vendus chacun à plus d'un million d'exemplaires. --Jean-Pierre Fuéri
