Bande dessinée majeure des années 80 créée par Jean-Marc Rochette et Jacques Lob, reprise à la fin des années 90 pour deux volumes supplémentaires par Benjamin Legrand après le décès de son scénariste, la trilogie du Transperceneige reparait en un volume unique à l’occasion de son adaptation au cinéma (Snowpiercer, sur les écrans dès la fin de l’été) par le plus célèbre des cinéastes coréens, Bong Joon-ho. La redécouverte de l’une des meilleures sagas de science-fiction qu’ait produite la bande dessinée française : trente ans après sa création, Le Transperceneige n’a rien perdu de sa puissance et de sa singulière modernité.
One day the nuclear holocaust finally happened and the whole earth is brutally plunged into eternal winter frozen, hostile to all forms of life. Not quite....miraculously, a small portion of humanity has found refuge in extremis in a revolutionary train -Transperceneige- driven by a fantastic perpetual motion machine that the survivors of the disaster quickly nicknamed "Saint Loco". But on board the train, now the custodian of the final sample of the human species, men have learned nothing as the good old mechanisms of social stratification, political oppression and religious begin to take over ...
Created by Jean-Marc Rochette and Jacques Lob, in the 1980s the late 1990s saw two additional volumes written by Benjamin Legrand after the death of the original writer. Now the trilogy Transperceneige is collected together in a single volume as its film adaptation , "Snowpiercer", directed by famous Korean filmmaker Bong Joon-hoat is set to appear at the end of summer, 2013.
This is a chance for French readers to rediscover of one of the best science-fiction sagas has ever produced French comics: thirty years after its creation, and the Transperceneige has lost none of its power and its singular modernity.
GREAT art but let me tell you -this is grim!!
