Synopsis

Don't miss this exciting sci-fi prequel graphic novel of the highly anticipated Warner Bros. & Legendary motion picture, Pacific Rim directed by Guillermo del Toro! Chronicling the very first time Earth is menaced by incredible monsters known as Kaiju, these inhuman beasts rise from the ocean depths and threaten to extinguish all mankind! Witness the race to develop massive robot fighting machines called Jaegers, each one controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. This action-packed tale features many of the key characters from the film as we follow them in their early careers. Witten by Pacific Rim screenwriter himself, Travis Beacham, and with del Toro's hands-on supervision, this volume is beautifully illustrated by Sean Chen, Yvel Guichet, and Pericles Junior; inks by Steve Bird and Mark McKenna; and fully painted cover by superstar artist Alex Ross.

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

'Boasting larger-than-life predicaments, colorful characters, operatic stories and brimming with apocalypse-sized tragedy, Pacific Rim:Tales from Year Zero is a treat for anyone with a penchant for this genre. The images work to fire the imagination even as the story, by nature of what it is designed to do, leaves you wanting more.' - IGN (18 July)

'A fantastic compliment to the movie and a touching story in its own right. The art teams all turn in great work, Beacham has an instinctive eye for page design and dialogue and all three stories have some real emotional punch to them.' - SFX (15 July)

'You can watch the movie and totally see it as a complete work, Travis Beacham told CraveOnline, [but] the comic sets up the world of the movie in a really organic way.' - Featured in a list of film prequel comics worth reading in Empire (July)

'This slight but stunningly fun hardback companion compilation, set simultaneously before and during the events of the silver screen saga, features a triptych of short tales drawn from the unused backstory material... Furious fun for monster-lovers of all ages.' -Comics Review 'Original script writer Travis Beacham has fleshed-out the years between the first monster attack and the start of the movie, and with Guillermo Del Toro listed as a supervising editor, there's an authority to the production of this book that lifts it beyond the simple tie-in.' --Grovel
