Robert Rodi

    1 janvier 1956

    Façonné par une époque turbulente de l'histoire américaine, cet auteur s'est imposé comme un maître de la satire sociale. Son œuvre dissèque avec acuité l'hypocrisie et la rhétorique creuse, avec une oreille fine pour les nuances du comportement humain. Après des romans acclamés se déroulant dans le milieu gay, il s'est aventuré dans diverses entreprises créatives, de la bande dessinée aux performances scéniques. Il revient désormais à la fiction avec une perspective nouvelle, inspiré par les maîtres du suspense, tout en revitalisant ses œuvres seminales pour les lecteurs contemporains.

      There are two sides to every story. You've heard Thor's - now it's time to hear Loki's! Odin's least favorite son rewrites Asgardian lore from his perspective, featuring the breathtaking painted artwork of Esad Ribic (SECRET WARS). In this tale, Loki's insatiable lust for power will take on new meaning - as will his conflicted sentiments toward Sif, his antipathy toward Balder and his deep-seated feelings of longing and resentment toward his older brother Thor and uncaring father Odin. And if that's not enough, just stare at the lush painted art by Ribic, presented larger than ever before - you won't be disappointed! Plus: The first appearance of the Trickster God, a classic Tale of Asgard that reveals Loki's awesome origin and more! Collecting LOKI (2004) #1-4, THOR (2007) #12 and material from JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY (1952) #85 and #112.
