Michel Vaillant Nouvelle saison #1

A bold new chapter for one of Franco-Belgian comics' most enduring racing heroes, this 2012 launch of Michel Vaillant Nouvelle Saison opens with "Au nom du fils" — a title that immediately signals legacy and succession. The cover, rendered by Marc Bourgne and Benjamin Benéteau, places a steel-jawed Michel Vaillant in close-up foreground, his white racing suit bearing the iconic red-white-and-blue Vaillante emblem, while a tense, wheel-to-wheel battle between sleek GT racing cars unfolds in the background. With Philippe Graton and Denis Lapière steering the story, this fresh season promises to honor the spirit of Jean Graton's beloved series while pushing it confidently into new territory.
