Jeremiah #31

by Hermann Huppen (Tekst &Tekeningen)

Pour les remercier d'avoir dépanné Verona, la fille de la maison, Jeremiah et Kurdy sont accueillis dans la somptueuse villa d'un riche antiquaire. Piscine, domestiques, c'est un petit paradis. Sans oublier le charme de Verona ! Mais pas question de se laisser engourdir par trop de volupté... car derrière ces apparences fastueuses se niche un danger bien réel. Les héros les plus libertaires et désinvoltes de la bande dessinée évoluent, sous la plume d'Hermann, dans un monde détruit par la guerre, où violence, inégalités et injustice sont le lot courant. Nomades, indépendants et à l'occasion redresseurs de tort, Jeremiah et Kurdy manient l'humour comme leurs poings, de manière plutôt percutante.

About the author

Hermann was born in 1938 in Bévercé (now a part of Malmedy) in Liège Province. After studying to become a furniture maker and working as interior architect, Hermann made his debut as comic book artist in 1964 in the comics magazine Spirou with a four page story. Greg noticed his talent and offered him to work for his studio. In 1966, he began illustrating the Bernard Prince series written by Greg, published in the comic magazine Tintin periodical. In 1969, also in collaboration with Greg, he began the western series Comanche. This appeared at the same time as other western series such as Blueberry.
Hermann began writing his own stories in 1977, starting the post-apocalyptic Jeremiah series, which is still produced today. In the same period, he also made three albums of Nick, inspired by Little Nemo in Slumberland, for Spirou.[1] In 1983 he began a new series, Les Tours de Bois-Maury, which is set in the Middle Ages and is less focused on action than his other works.
Hermann has also created many non-series graphic novels sometimes together with his son Yves H. One of them, Lune de Guerre, with a story by Jean Van Hamme, was later filmed as The Wedding Party by Dominique Deruddere.[2]
Hermann is characterized by a realistic style and stories that are both somber and angry, with a sense of disillusion with regards to the human character in general, and current society more specifically.

Reviews

[Hugo · Rating 4 out of 5]

En su camino por México se conocen a Verona, una chica de pocas inhibiciones que su padre se dedica a las exposiciones de arte, envuelto en problemas con la mafia por problemas con unas piezas falsas que vendieron, contratan a Jer y a Kurdy de guardaespaldas de un “maestro” de las artes plásticas que prácticamente lo que defeca lo hace una obra maestra. Una buena crítica y una historia bastante bien hecha.
