Valerian - The Complete Collection - Volume 4
Author: Pierre Christin
Publisher: Cinebook
ISBN: 1849189145
Category : Comics & Graphic Novels
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
Fourth volume of the collection: return to Earth, and some great upheavals in the characters’ lives, are on the menu for the best titles of the series. This volume contains books 9 to 12 – two unmissable two-parters that represent a turning point in the story of our agents, and which are widely considered by critics and readers alike to be the pinnacle of the series. Characterised by a return to 20th century Earth, these two stories are suffused with incredible melancholy and poetic charm, and force Valerian, the action man, to face his limitations. As the real date neared 1986, final year of our world according to the authors, Pierre Christin reconciled fiction and reality with consummate skill and daring, sweeping aside the status quo and sending his heroes down a completely new path. This book is introduced by several articles of the recently departed Stan Barets.

Book Description
"Valerian on the big screen ? I blame it all on Jean-Claude Mézières and Pierre Christin ! When I was ten, every week I'd read the adventures of Valerian in Pilote... And I have to confess that I was very much in love with Laureline, even though I quite liked Valerian. It'd be great if the film could make as strong and long-lasting an impression on its viewers." Luc Besson (from his interview with J. C. Mézières and P Christin) Born out of the Wild imagination of Pierre Christin and Jean-Claude Mézières, the characters of Valerian and Laureline first appeared in the pages of Pilote in 1967. Through its creativity and daring, the series quickly became the definitive reference for all readers of science-fiction bandes dessinées.
