Even though Valerian and Laureline's adventures have come to an end, there are still many chapters that haven't been told yet. Simple episodes, post-scriptums to their main stories, moments of their lives seen through the eyes of their friends, their allies, or even their enemies. Here's a collection of vignettes that will cast a new light - sometimes funny, sometimes touching - on the saga of our heroes.
Jean-Claude Mzires and Pierre Christin created Valerian in 1967 after working in the USA together, one as a cowboy, the other a teacher. While Valerian is Mzires' only comic series, he has worked as an illustrator in many other areas, including designs and sets for The Fifth Element, and he was awarded the Grand Prix du festival d'Angoulme in 1984. Christin also works in collaboration with other artists such as Tardi and Bilal and writes novels and film scripts.
