DREAM THIEF BY JAI NITZ
Illustrations: Greg Smallwood
Synopsis
After stealing an Aboriginal mask from a museum, unemployed stoner John Lincoln realizes that the spirits of the vengeful dead are possessing his body and mind while he sleeps!
What follows is an unpredictable tour around the American South as the Dream Thief accrues the memories and skills of various murder victims... and fights to stay awake, before he kills again!
Bram Stoker Award winner Jai Nitz and Greg Smallwood, along with a who's who of modern comics talents providing covers and pinups, craft a stylish, fast-paced drama of supernatural revenge!
Reactions
A comic with colorful illustrations for a bloody and forceful action packed story!
An looser, who is cheating on his girlfriend, who smokes pot and thinks only of himself, derobes an Aboriginal mask in a museum. The same night, he wakes up near his ex-girlfriend...dead body... Talk about a hero! Lol!
If the character is insufferable, selfish and untrustworthy, his masked double seeks a form of justice by murdering the wicked. The action is punctuated with bloodshed, hangings, guys buried. In short, a lot of killing methods...
Personally, I admit the repetition of pattern: I fall asleep, I wake after killing the whole earth a little bit too repetitive. But the illustrations are superb!

Traduction du synopsis
Après avoir volé un masque aborigène dans un musée, le chômeur fumeur de pets, John Lincoln, se rend compte que des esprits vengeurs de personnes mortes possédent son corps et son esprit pendant qu'il dort!
Ce qui suit est un voyage imprévisible autour des états du Sud de l'Amérique pendant que "The Dream Thief" comptabilise les souvenirs et les compétences des différentes victimes... et se bat pour rester éveillé, avant qu'il ne tue à nouveau!
Le vainqueur du Bram Stoker Award, Jai Nitz et Greg Smallwood, avec une plaide de jeunes talents fournissent des couvertures et des pin-ups et élaborent un drame élégant et trépidant de vengeance surnaturelle!
Impressions
Un comic aux illustrations colorées pour une action sanglante et musclée!
Un infidèle looser, fumeur de pétards ne pensant qu'à lui, se retrouve à voler un masque aborigène dans un musée et à zigouiller la nana qui vient de le larguer.
Tu parles d'un héros! Lol!
Si le personnage est imbuvable, égoïste et indigne de confiance, son double masqué oeuvre pour une certaine forme de justice en dégommant les méchants.
L'action est rythmée avec des bains de sang, des pendaisons, des mecs enterrés.
Bref, des meurtres sous toutes les formes.
J'avoue personnellement avoir trouvé la répétition du schéma: je m'endors, je me réveil après avoir tué la terre entière, un poil répétitive même si les bulles sont vivantes et les meurtres toujours différents.
Les illustrations, elles, sont superbes.
