Dynasty Warriors Origins, c’est mon grand kiff de ces derniers temps. Et son DLC sorti en début d’année a un côté « more of the same » mais j’ai du mal à le lui reprocher. Ci-dessous mon test.

Being awaken by loud bangs throughout the morning in the UAE skies isn’t the best way to start this Sunday.
They accuse Muslims of hating women, then they attack a fucking girls’ school.
Was just chilling in my apartment on a lovely saturday, writing a review, then heard about the missiles targeting Abu Dhabi, 120km away. Thanks to the usual assholes.
Hope everyone will be safe in Abu Dhabi and other gulf countries suffering from the attacks because of Trump's "peace" campaign.
Is anybody out there going to reign in this genocidal nation once and for all? How can you attack 6 different nations, aim to eradicate the entire Palestinian population, break countless ceasefire agreements, and then bomb Iran as a "preventive" measure in the midst of negotiation?
And as expected Iran targeted American bases in Abu Dhabi, UAE, Manama, Bahrain, Kuwait and Qatar. I really hope these Arabic leaders will get rid of the colonial forces on their ground and wake up to the fact that the US isn't there to "defend" them. None of these nations are equipped for this.

Une boîte récemment a tenté de me faire passer un entretien vidéo « par un agent IA ». J’ai même pas répondu.
Couverture du tome 1 de "American Parano".
Couverture du tome 2 de "American Parano"
Mes explorations BD m'ont emmenées vers les deux premiers tomes de American Parano, une enquête policière dans les 60s dans un San Francisco en plein été hippie où des victimes meurent dans des rituels sataniques sordides. Plein de promesses, ça reste assez plan-plan malgré leur super ambiance.
Book cover of "Cobra Commander" Volume 1.
And finally Cobra Commander #1-5. Except for its great art by Andrea Milana, I didn't like it as much as I hoped. While the action is great, I hoped the Cobra Commander character would be a bit more interesting than Destro. But they're too similar. Still excited to read GI Joe.
Book cover of "Duke" Volume 1.
Duke #1-5 was lots of fun as well. An american hero is rebelling against the system who created him, around some conspiracy and his encounter with a "flying robot". Great intro to the shared GI Joe/Transformers universe (Energon) that actually makes me excited to read the main GI Joe series #BookSky
Its wild how the TikTok algorithm changes reveal to Western people how heavy Western censorship and propaganda really is. Access to continuous Israeli war crimes in Palestine, "law enforcement" abuses, global Western imperialism - all gone or deprioritized by the billionaire oligarchs. And this:
Couverture de la BD "Le mystère du col Dyatlov" de Jandro & Mayen.
Le mystère du col Dyatlov revient sur la mort de neuf randonneurs en URSS (1959) et son enquête. La BD manque d'un peu de rythme et de scènes plus mémorables, celle-ci abordant la culture du secret très mollement, et peine à montrer pourquoi cette affaire a suscité tant de théories. #BookSky
Klarsfeld viole l'héritage de ses parents et le message des survivants de la Shoah.
Tout le monde en mode "ce qui se passe chez Trump pourrait arriver un jour chez nous", comme si la police française avait pas assassiné un homme la semaine dernière
Fabuleux comme la mort au travail n'est pratiquement plus un sujet de nos jours. Pas parce que ça a disparu en France, mais parce qu'on a décidé de laisser les patrons faire n'imp. Quel recul terrible.
Cover of "Scarlett" Vol.1.
Lots of fun again with Scarlett #1-5, still in the Energon Universe. A great one-shot about a simili-spy risking her life to save her friend, while developing some backstory that should be pursued in the main G.I. Joe comics. I never imagined I'd love these comics as much, but it's so fun. #BookSky
Le truc c’est que « les français » dont il parle, c’est pas ceux qui habitent ces logements.
C'était mon premier livre de Hiro Arikawa, j'ai vraiment adoré !
I read Destro #1-5. Part of Energon Universe (Transformers, GI Joe), it tells the war between two genocidal arms dealers with over the top powers fighting each other in order to make sure the world remains a shithole profiting their industry. It's super fun but doesn't say much politically #BookSky
Couverture de « Deux filles nues » de Luz.
Deux filles nues de Luz, qui nous raconte le nazisme (littéralement) dans les yeux d’un célèbre tableau de Otto Mueller. Du génie artistique jusqu’à la confiscation, puis son sauvetage par des passionnés, c’est une très belle fresque sur la survie de l’art face à l’horreur. #BookSky
Couverture de la bande dessinée "Sibylline, Chroniques d'une escort girl" de Sixtine Dano.
Je continue mes explorations BD avec Sibylline de Sixtine Dano. Virée dans une jeunesse précaire sur fond d'escorting. Les dessins sont sublimes et la mise en scène impactante. On sent les questionnements et souffrances de son héroïne, ainsi que sa manière de prendre le pouvoir. Superbe BD. #BookSky
Couverture de la BD "Mauvais Genre" de Chloé Cruchaudet.
Mauvais Genre de Chloé Cruchaudet raconte l'histoire (vraie) de Paul, déserteur de la 1ère GM, qui s'est travesti en femme pour se cacher. Traumatismes, questionnements sur son identité, la BD manque peut-être d'un final mieux maîtrisé autour de sa femme Louise. Mais c'était très bien. #BookSky
Cover of the comic book "Spectators" by Brian K. Vaughn and Niko Henrichon.
My latest comics read was memorable: Spectators. It takes us hundred years in the future, in a dystopian Manhattan where two ghosts wanders and reflect on their lives. With a lot of voyeurism and boldness, it tackles humanity's failures and American violence in a very unique way. Loved it.

Cover of the complete collection of Nextwave: Agents of H.A.T.E featuring the five main characters.
« Let’s save America by beating up everything we see. » I have been reading Nextwave: Agents of HATE, comic book released around 2006. Parody of superheroes stories with a band of misfits and a women-hating crybaby as a bad guy, it was really fun.
Book cover of John Scalzi's "When the Moon Hits Your Eye", featuring an astronaut walking on a moon-shaped cheese.
Scalzi’s writing style is a bit redundant, but I'm still a fan. I've had a blast reading his latest book, When the Moon Hits Your Eye. It was pure fun: absurd, warm, and thoughtful. Behind the the joke of the Moon turning to cheese is a very human look at how we react when reality completely breaks.
