Horizons obliques
Il y a plusieurs années, Jacob et Elena Armlen, un couple d'explorateurs, se sont retrouvés piégés dans une étrange dimension parallèle aux paysages insaisissables, à l'architecture changeante, peuplée d'entités malicieuses, laissant derrière eux leur fille en bas âge, Adley. Bien des années plus tard, Adley a grandi mais n'a jamais oublié ses parents. Dotée d'un pouvoir de clairvoyance et accompagnée de Staden, un robot à la sensibilité très humaine, elle se lance à leur recherche.

Superbe visuellement ! Vraiment j’avais envie de prendre tellement de pages en photo ! L’histoire est pas mal mais ce n’est pas le point fort de cette bd à mon sens, même si certaines choses étaient intrigantes, c’est surtout les illustrations, paysages, éléments de sf qui m’ont impressionné

Pour les amateurs de bandes dessinées aux cités architecturales, voilà une très belle découverte venue des États-Unis (complétée d'ailleurs par un petit dialogue entre François Schuiten et Richard Blake). Le dessin et les couleurs sont splendides.
Une histoire d'univers parallèles et d'intelligences artificielles un peu confuse qui donne l'impression un travail scénaristiquement un poil inabouti.
Pour autant, la poésie picturale et un choix de dialogues plutôt minimaliste permet à cet album de s'en sortir élégamment
