Ultra Heaven #2
Ultra Heaven, Tome 2
Dans un monde futuriste où l’usage des drogues est encouragé par tous les médias, un homme, toujours en quête de sensations fortes, recherche la drogue ultime, celle qui abolirait les frontières entre rêve et réalité. Sa quête le mène jusqu’à l’Ultra Heaven, une substance d’un genre nouveau, tellement expérimentale qu’elle ne circule que sous le manteau. Il décide de la tester, sans imaginer les conséquences que ce choix aura sur sa vie…Une série de science-fiction au graphisme proche de celui de Moebius, période Metal Hurlant, et à la mise en page complètement éclatée. L’auteur s’évertue à faire vivre au lecteur des voyages psychédéliques, déstructurant les planches et les cases, se jouant de l’absurde et de la logique. Le résultat est à la hauteur du projet : littéralement hallucinant.

disturbing, unhinged, bordering dreams and reality in most traumatic and vivid way.
