Ugaki, de samoerai

1980

Ugaki è un rōnin: il suo padrone (daimyō) è stato ucciso, ma egli non si è suicidato a sua volta (seppuku), come prescrive il codice d'onore dei samurai (bushidō), perché prima di morire il daimyō gli ha chiesto di continuare a vivere per vendicarlo. Dopo aver combattuto contro un vampiro, Ugaki incontra i samurai del daimyō Kanenaga: questi è stato ferito a seguito dello scontro con alcuni briganti, che gli hanno sottratto un forziere pieno di preziosi, e soprattutto l'amato figlio. Con uno stratagemma, Ugaki penetra nel covo dei banditi e rapisce una donna, potendo così organizzare il giorno successivo uno scambio di ostaggi. Grato per il soccorso prestatogli, Kanenaga chiede a Ugaki di mettersi al suo servizio, garantendogli in cambio aiuto per i suoi propositi di vendetta.

Dans un futur lointain, une autre galaxie ou un autre espace-temps, l'Incal et l'immense pouvoir qu'il confère exacerbent toutes les convoitises. John Difool, minable détective de classe R adepte d'homéoputes et de bon "ouisky" se retrouve embarqué malgré lui dans cette course à l'Incal. Il aura affaire à des mouettes qui parlent, des extraterrestres idiots, un empire dictatorial ultra violent, des rats de quinze mètres commandés par une déesse nue, une bataille mémorable dans une fourmilière, une secte adepte des trous noirs, et enfin une bataille intersidérale entre le bien et le mal.

L'Incal, Tome 2

L'Incal Lumière

1981

Dans un univers futuriste aux dimensions inimaginables, un médiocre détective privé, John Difool, se retrouve un beau jour à la tête d'une enquête qui ne tardera pas à le dépasser totalement, et à l'entraîner dans un monde étrange mêlant science-fiction et expériences divines, dans une bataille titanesque opposant le bien et le mal. œuvre majeure de la bande dessinée, première pierre d'un édifice aux nombreux albums et aux multiples filiations, l'Incal marque le début de la fructueuse collaboration entre le bouillonnant et mystique Jodorowsky et le visionnaire et polymorphe Moebius, ouvrant chacun les vannes de leur imagination sans limites, créant un univers parallèle dans lequel des générations entières se sont perdues de leur plein gré et avec délectation. À suivre dans les six albums de L'Incal et à poursuivre dans Avant l'Incal, Après l'Incal, La Caste des Méta-barons et les Technopères. \—David Rault

Arzak

1976

Arzach fut une révolution pour la bande dessinée de l'époque. Elle est constituée d'une série de cinq histoires autonomes, sortes de « nouvelles graphiques » de quelques planches chacune. Sa particularité réside tout d'abord en son absence totale de dialogues : on y croise un voire deux personnages récurrents (Arzach et son Ptéroïde, sorte de ptérodactyle) mais apparemment muets, en tout cas l'auteur ne leur autorise pas la parole pour s'exprimer.

Caza, the pseudonym for Philippe Cazamayou, is a French comics artist. Caza began to publish work in Pilote magazine, starting with his series Quand les costumes avaient des dents (When Costumes had Teeth) in 1971, followed by other short work.

This was later abandoned for a style of colour use which would become a trademark, as seen in later work such as Arkhê, Chimères and Laïlah.

Hugo Pratt

Hugo Pratt, born Ugo Eugenio Prat (1927–1995), was an Italian comic book writer and artist. Internationally known for Corto Maltese, a series of adventure comics first published in Italy and France between 1967 and 1991, Pratt is regarded as a pioneer of the literary graphic novel. Born in Rimini, Italy, Pratt spent his childhood in Venice in a cosmopolitan family environment. In 1937, ten-years old Hugo moved with his parents to Ethiopia, East Africa, following the Italian occupation of the country. Pratt's father eventually died as a prisoner of war in 1942. Hugo himself and his mother spent some time in a British prison camp in Africa, before being sent back to Venice. This childhood experiences shaped Pratt's fascination with military uniforms, machineries and settings, a visual constant in most of his adult works. As a young artist in post-war Italy, Pratt was part of the so-called 'Venice Group', which also included cartoonists Alberto Ongaro, Mario Faustinelli. Their magazine Asso di Picche, launched in 1945, mostly featured adventure comics. In 1949 Pratt moved to Buenos Aires, Argentina, where he worked for various local publishers and interacted with well-known Argentine cartoonists, most notably Alberto Breccia and Solano López, while also teaching at the Escuela Panamericana de Arte. During this period he produced his first notable comic books: Sgt. Kirk and Ernie Pike, written by Héctor Germán Oesterheld; Anna nella jungla, Capitan Cormorant and Wheeling, as a complete author. From the summer of 1959 to the summer of 1960, Pratt lived in London drawing war comics by British scriptwriters for Fleetway Publications. He returned to Argentina for a couple more years, then moved back to Italy in 1962. Here he started collaborating with the comics magazine Il Corriere dei Piccoli, for which he adapted several classics, including works by Robert Louis Stevenson. In 1967, Hugo Pratt and entrepreneur Florenzo Ivaldi created the comics magazine Il Sergente Kirk, named after one of Pratt's original characters. Pratt's most famous work, Una ballata del mare salato (1967, The Ballad of the Salty Sea) was serialised in the pages of this magazine. The story can be seen as one of the first modern graphic novels. It also introduced Pratt's best known character, mariner and adventurer Corto Maltese. Corto became the protagonist of its own series three years later in the French comics magazine Pif gadget. Pratt would continue releasing new Corto Maltese books every few years until 1991. Corto's stories are set in various parts of the world, in a given moment in the first three decades of the 20th century. They often tangently deal with real historical events or real historical figures. The series gave Pratt international notoriety, being eventually translated into fifteen languages. Pratt's other works include Gli scorpioni del deserto (1969-1992), a series of military adventures set in East Africa during WWII, and a few one-shots published for Bonelli's comic magazine Un Uomo Un'Avventura ('One Man One Adventure'), most notably the short story Jesuit Joe (1980, The Man from the Great North). He also scripted a couple of stories for his pupil Milo Manara. Pratt lived in France from 1970 to 1984, then in Switzerland till his death from bowel cancer in 1995.

1961 : Naissance de Zoran Janjetov le 23 juin à Subotica, Yougoslavie. Passionné depuis sa plus tendre enfance par le dessin et la peinture, Janjetov étudie aux Beaux-Arts de Novi Sad. En BD, ses influences s'articulent autour des publications Disney (les incontournables Carl Barks et Floyd Gottfredson) et de la science-fiction, avec le britannique Frank Hampson (créateur de Dan Dare) et, déjà, Moebius. Il est également fasciné par le cinéma d'aventure et les séries télévisées américaines des années 50 et 60, qu'il connaît sur le bout des doigts. 1979 : Outre des illustrations en tous genres (couvertures de livres, pochettes de disques et même génériques télé), Janjetov publie ses premières planches dans la presse estudiantine. 1982 : Adoptant un graphisme hérité de Moebius, il crée Bernard Panasonik, héros de science-fiction -tendance parodie. 1986 : Moebius apprécie les planches de Janjetov au point de lui confier les couleurs des tomes 5 et 6 de l'Incal. 1988 : C'est donc logiquement que Janjetov dessine le spin-off Avant l'Incal, point de départ d'un nouveau cycle scénarisé par Jodorowsky. 1997 : Six volumes d'Avant l'Incal plus tard, Zoran Janjetov rempile avec Jodorowsky sur les Technopères, une nouvelle série se déroulant dans l'univers de l'Incal. Le trait de plus en plus personnel de Janjetov y est servi par une audacieuse mise en couleurs signée Fred Beltran. 2006 : Le tome 8 des "Technopères", "La Galaxie promise", clôture avec brio ce premier cycle déjà best-seller.

Author · 4 books

Nacido durante la posguerra española, su infancia transcurrió en Barcelona, influida por la afición de su padre a la pintura y los inventos y el trabajo de su tío José Segrelles como ilustrador y acuarelista de prestigio internacional, lo que le inclinó a practicar su pasión innata por el dibujo, afición compartida también por su primo Eustaquio Segrelles. A los 14 años entró en la escuela de ENASA en Barcelona, orientada a la formación en el dibujo técnico donde obtuvo conocimientos sobre mecánica y materiales, influencia que se aprecia en su trabajo. A los 17 años se trasladó al departamento de publicaciones técnicas de ENASA, si bien siguió interesado en el dibujo artístico experimentando con diversas técnicas como óleo, gouache, tinta china, etc. Hacia 1960 se puso en contacto por primera vez con el mundo de la ilustración artística a través de la editorial Afha para la que ilustró La Ilíada y La Odisea. Con 23 años deja ENASA y gracias a un anuncio en la prensa comienza a trabajar en Ruescas McCann Erikson, una agencia de publicidad de Barcelona como especialista en figura y color. Un año después se desplaza a otra agencia en Zaragoza como jefe de diseño. Vive en Zaragoza varios años donde se casa y nace la primera de sus dos hijas. En 1968 contacta con editorial Bruguera donde ilustra varias colecciones de cromos de grán éxito así como varios libros. En 1969 inicia una colaboración para la agencia artística Selecciones Ilustradas dibujando una serie de ilustraciones de armas del oeste americano. Hacia 1970 decide abandonar definitivamente la publicidad para dedicarse de lleno a la ilustración. Retoma su colaboración con editorial Afha ilustrando varios libros de referencia sobre temas por los que siente grán interés; inventos, armas, aviones, barcos, etc, además escribe él mismo algunos de ellos. Dado que la mayor parte de la industria editorial reside en Barcelona, en 1974 se traslada a la costa cerca de la capital catalana, lugar donde nació su segunda hija y donde aún reside. Entre 1976 y 1977 colabora con la revista Interviú realizando ilustraciones en blanco y negro para unos 30 números. Simultáneamente, a través de Selecciones Ilustradas y luego de Norma Editorial continúa su labor como ilustrador de portadas de libros especializándose en fantasía y ciencia ficción, si bien pintó portadas sobre distintos temas como guerra, policíacos y terror. Durante esa época se introduce en el competitivo mercado norteamericano dibujando ilustraciones y portadas para algunas de las mejores editoriales de este país. En 1980 comienza la elaboración de El Mercenario, el comic que le ha dado fama mundial y que es su obra maestra. Poco a poco va dedicando más tiempo a esta actividad hasta que a comienzos de los 90 abandona completamente su trabajo como ilustrador de portadas para dedicarse por completo a la historieta. Sin embargo, en 1991, cansado de la laboriosa técnica de pintura al óleo de El Mercenario, decidió abordar un proyecto más espontáneo y ágil usando la caricatura cómica con dos volúmenes de un nuevo personaje, Sheriff Pat. En 1999 publica Cómo Pinta Vicente Segrelles, un manual de dibujo ampliamente ilustrado donde explica sus técnicas y secretos. En 2004 publica en Ediciones B un cuento para niños, El Agua Mágica, así como una reedición de la serie de El mercenario. Segrelles es aficionado a la construcción de maquetas, la escultura y la pintura, sobre todo de temas marinos. (Texto extraído de Wikipedia)
