The timing of this particular bit of PR stinks. To high heaven. I smell a rat. #arsenal
RT @The_Beck_: "Middle East Consortium" is really short for "30 million people died for the money we own and don't ask us how or where it came from."
RT @CintaArsenal: “@WokWeyFC: @CintaArsenal problem is a lot of our fans don't care about traditions and the soul of the club. The Piers Morgan Brigade.”

La nouvelle folie graphique de Marc-Antoine Mathieu
 
Le décalage est une belle BD “perchée”, dans la lignée des oeuvres de Marc-Antoine Mathieu. Le héros, Julius Corentin Acquefacques, passe le mur du temps au début de l’histoire… Il se réveille, et se rend compte qu’il est exclu de son récit ! Il laisse les personnages secondaires perdus, dans un monde “vide”, puisque sans héros il ne peut pas y avoir d’histoire… Toute une réflexion sur le “rien”. Et finalement, ces personnages parviennent à retrouver le héros en sautant quelques pages, qui sont déchirées dans le livre (voir la photo), un saut dans le futur… Tout est recalé. A noter que Marc-Antoine Mathieu a même supprimée la couverture de son album, l’histoire commence directement et recommence, sans fin. Un bel album en noir et blanc, à découvrir.
 
Le décalage - Marc-Antoine Mathieu - Delcourt - 14 € 30
  
The latest in Marc-Antoine Mathieu’s metacomics series “Julius Corentin Acquefacques” is out from Delcourt. This is one of my favourite BD series, as I’m a total metacomics nerd.
 
Can’t wait for this one, as Mathieu is nothing short of a visionary. Despite using some remarkable techniques (including paper engineering, photography and manipulation of the comics form itself), Mathieu never loses sight of the story, and the series is gripping as well as experimental. Highly recommended.
