About this Collection

This hors série volume collects material from the Valerian series, offering additional stories or behind-the-scenes content outside the main numbered albums. Published by Dargaud in 1997, it expands the universe of the classic French sci-fi series by writer Pierre Christin and artist Jean-Claude Mézières.

In "Le Grand collectionneur," Valérian and Laureline join two scientists in investigating a mysterious planet split into four distinct zones—each altering human form in extreme ways. As the team delves into the planet's bizarre phenomena, they soon find themselves caught in an experiment they never expected. Written by Pierre Christin and illustrated with precision by Jean-Claude Mézières, with colors by Évelyne Tranlé and letters by Mézières himself, this 1997 Dargaud issue delivers a sharp, thought-provoking sci-fi adventure. The cover, also by Mézières, captures the surreal tone of the story in striking detail.
