Michel Vaillant #28

Jean Graton puts readers right in the thick of a Formula racing catastrophe with this 1975 entry in the beloved Michel Vaillant series. The cover plunges us into a chaotic circuit scene — bright yellow and red single-seaters crowd the track as fire erupts in the background, marshals scramble trackside, and a grandstand packed with spectators watches the drama unfold, while a helmet marked "Warson" in the foreground hints at the mystery at the story's heart. It's a vivid snapshot of speed and danger that makes "Le secret de Steve Warson" impossible to set aside.
