Jupiter's Legacy, Book 1

Dans un futur proche, la maison de production OPHIS tient le sujet de son prochain programme de télé-réalité : filmer la vie de Jésus Christ. Recréé génétiquement à partir des traces ADN du suaire de Turin, le clone du Messie grandit sous le regard avide des caméras et d'une Amérique subjuguée par ce qu'elle pense être la troisième Venue du Christ. Quelques années plus tard, l'expérience tourne court lorsque l'adolescent entre en révolte totale contre le système et devient le prophète d'une autre Amérique. Punk Rock Jesus est la nouvelle création de Sean Murphy (Joe, l'aventure intérieure). Fruit de sa réflexion sur l'Amérique et sa culture, ce récit d'anticipation jette un éclairage sans concession sur l'influence des médias et les dangers des fanatismes religieux de tous bords. Radical et documenté, le propos est néanmoins tempéré par l'intelligence de son auteur et sa volonté de questionner le lecteur sur ses propres croyances. Dessinateur au trait précis et détaillé, Sean Murphy développe en quelques centaines de pages un nouveau monde parfaitement crédible, tout en déconstruisant le notre, pièce par pièce.
