Description
For over sixty years, Michel Vaillant has embodied the passion for speed and the dream of the automobile. Born under Jean Graton's sharp pencil, this intrepid driver with a rebellious streak has left an indelible mark on both asphalt and the world of comics. From the very first frame, the tone is set: sleek racing cars, palpable tension on the starting grid, and in the cockpit, a concentrated driver, staring straight ahead, ready to stake his life on every bend. A thud resounds, the blue bodywork splits the air, marked with a tricolor emblem. In an instant, the Vaillant universe took off. Son of Henri Vaillant, Michel is distinguished by his sense of duty, competitive spirit and unfailing integrity. On the legendary circuits of Le Mans, Indianapolis and Monaco, he faced adversity with courage, always driven by passion and excellence. At his side are cult figures such as his brother Jean-Pierre, loyal mechanic Joseph, and American Steve Warson. With over 80 albums selling millions of copies, the world of Michel Vaillant goes beyond fiction: it pays tribute to racing, its legends and its dramas. Jean Graton, a master of detail, combines technical precision with narrative inspiration, creating a work that's a cross between documentary and novel. Michel Vaillant has become a benchmark, winning over generations of readers. He continues to race ahead of the pack, driven by an undiminished love of speed and adventure.
