Book Description
In this book you will find volumes 3 to 5: The Land Without Stars, Welcome to Alflolol and Birds of the Master – three stories that introduce the societal criticism aspect of the series. Battle of the sexes, totalitarianism and extreme productivism are lambasted, but never at the expense of fantasy or of the action. And as they travel from world to distant world, Laureline becomes a truly equal partner, far from the stereotypical female sidekick roles of the time. Finally, the second part of the exclusive interview with the authors and director Luc Besson is followed by an in-depth portrait of Pierre Christin, the writer.

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.

Valerian - The Complete Collection - Volume 5

Languages : en
Pages : 211

Book Description
Fifth volume of the collection, and it’s almost a new series that begins, without ever losing any of what makes its strength or its charm. In this volume of the Collection you will find books 13 to 15, and our heroes’ life has been irretrievably changed with the disappearance of future Earth and Galaxity. Lacking work, they become freelance spies in the 80s in On the Frontiers. Lacking money, they’re reluctant arms dealers in The Living Weapons. Lacking options, they turn investigators slash bait on corrupt Rubanis in The Circles of Power. The apparent descent into hell of the two former agents is the chance for the authors to study the ambiguities of our world, either directly or through the lens of alien civilisations; along with the ambiguity – pragmatism versus heroism – of the titular character, saved from a fall from grace by his ever irreproachable partner.
