De l'héroïc fantasy pour ceux qui n'aiment pas l'héroïc fantasy. On y trouve des héros, mais ils sont bien vieux ou bien malhabiles au maniement de l'épée. D'ailleurs, les seuls véritables bretteurs de l'histoire finiront tous très mal.
Pourtant, en apparence, les lois du genre sont respectées. Un chevalier, Bragon, part à la recherche de l'Oiseau du temps, seule créature capable d'empêcher Ramos le dieu maudit de quitter sa prison...
Mi favorito entre los álbumes de la primera serie. Le Tendre y Loisel alcanzan su plenitud como autores (Que no abandonarán nunca) a la vez que dotan a esta entrega de una trama crepuscular y refuerzan la sensación de urgencia de la aventura.
This was leagues better than the first two volumes : more story, less sexual undertones. The setting was also gorgeous. Hope the last one keeps this up.
The "The Riege Master" is as good as the first album and maybe a bit better. "Quest for the time bird" is a beautiful epic fantasy series with quality that remains on high levels from issue to issue.
On this one we have Le Tendre implement some deeper investments of devotion and sacrifice by the protagonists, making it more and more a classic when it comes to the fantasy genre norms and releasing it from the "just another outdated fantasy tale" label.
I especially liked the portrait of Riga and the power play between him and Bragon, almost the same as the one between Bragon and Bulrog. A nice mix of mutual respect and acknowledgement without actual mention.
Much better than the first two volumes, less childish, less women as sexual objects, but still too much of it, much better story, too.. still some pretty bad pointers, like characters telling you what they are doing as they are doing it, god if only there were pictures to show us what is happening!... comics are like jokes, if you need to explain it you're doing it wrong.
Un autre tome, une autre quête banale. Je ne suis impressionné par rien. Narrativement, c’est très mince, les personnages ne progressent pas vraiment et l’intrigue se résout par des deus ex machina un peu faciles. J’aimerais qu’on arrête de sexualiser Pelisse, mais je pense qu’il va falloir accepter que ça fait partie de l’ADN de cette série.
This is probably the high point of the series for me. The ongoing duel between the Riga and Bragon is is an interesting embellishment to Bragon's character.
Przedostatnia część cyklu (licząc nie według powstawania, lecz chronologii zdarzeń). Było kilka ciekawszych zeszytów, poza tym (nie sądziłem, że to kiedyś napiszę) kreska Loisela jakaś taka toporna.
