About the series
Christophe Bec scripts this Soleil series from 2013–2019, a seven-issue tribute to the legendary pilots of the Aéropostale airmail service. Illustrated primarily by Patrick Dumas and Bernard Khattou, the comic brings a dramatic, human-scale lens to the golden age of aviation, chronicling the real-life feats and perils of the men who flew across deserts and mountains to deliver the mail. It matters as a focused, visually rich historical adventure that honors a pivotal chapter in early 20th-century air travel.
