¡MILLAR E IMMONEN CUENTAN EL DIVORCIO DE MING THE MERCILESS...EN MARVEL!

Parece que tras Starlight, Millar le ha cogido el gusto a versionar a los personajes de Flash Gordon.

Y en un sorprendente lanzamiento, reactiva el sello ICON de Marvel para poder colaborar con Stuart Immonen, que es exclusivo a esta editorial y que confiesa que usará un nuevo estilo influenciado por la línea clara europea y artistas japoneses.


"The story centers on the wife of a galactic dictator (think someone akin to Ming the Merciless from Flash Gordon) who makes the decision to take her three kids and leave her evil husband.

With the aid of a bodyguard, she tries to take her brood – Aine, her 15-year-old daughter who wants to be with her father; Adam, her gentle soul of a 10-year-old son (below) who she knows would not survive the trials ahead to be an elite ruler; and Puck, her 18-month-old – to her home world.

Oh, and as an added twist, the planet of which she is queen is Earth…65 million years ago."



“She was young and impressionable when she married this dictator, just twenty years old, but now she’s in her mid -thirties and realizes she has to get out of there. 

What seemed glamorous at 20 suddenly feels terrifying and for both her own sake and the sake of her kids she knows she has to leave.

The trouble is, her husband is the most feared tyrant in the universe. How do you leave him and where do you go?



“I think all the best science fiction has a very human element at the heart of it and a mother wanting to leave a dangerous relationship is very easy for readers to relate to.

I’m not really interested in high-concept ideas as much as human emotions being the driving force of a story. 


Even Star Wars was really just a lonely kid who wondered who his real father was.”

"....confiesa que usará un nuevo estilo influenciado por la línea clara europea y artistas japoneses." Como una combinación entre moebius y leinil francis yu.
Muy buena idea de millar, sobre todo me agrada la parte en que estará ambientada en la tierra 65 millones de años atrás y no en otro planeta como la ciencia ficción tradicional, interesante giro de tuerca, haber como funciona.
