Jeremiah - Tome 2 - Du sable plein les dents

Jeremiah #2

by Hermann Huppen

En perpétuelle errance sur des terres dévastées, confrontés à d'autres survivants qui reproduisent à l'identique tous les travers qui ont déjà conduit la planète à sa destruction, Jeremiah le réfléchi et Kurdy la tête-brûlée ont l'art de mettre les pieds là où il ne faut pas. Dans ce monde anéanti par la folie des hommes, la règle du jeu, c'est la loi du plus fort, dans l'âpre violence d'un retour aux premiers âges.

Genres: Bande Dessinée, Comics, Dystopia

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

[Johan · Rating 3 out of 5]

In vergelijking met het vorige verhaal heeft Jeremiah ondertussen zijn vuisten leren gebruiken, maar hij is nog erg naïef.

[Hugo · Rating 4 out of 5]

Kurdy y Jeremiah viajan juntos por el desierto cuando encuentran a un hombre tiroteado por una bandidos, uno de estos fue sobornado para que fallara el tiro, pero pretendiera que si le dio. Cuando Jeremiah y Kurdy lo interrogan saben que unos ladrones saquearon un carro de la milicia con oro, por lo que ofrece una recompensa a estos por ayudarlo a recuperarla.

Story: ***
Typical over-goodhearted Jeremiah out in the wastelands stuff.

Art: **
The b&w art looks the worst I've seen throughout my many Hermann albums.

Ce deuxième tome ancre un peu plus la série dans une ambiance de western post-apocalyptique.

Les deux personnages s'étoffent et prennent du relief. Du très bon, tant au niveau du dessin que de l'histoire.
