Valentin le vagabond

In the early 1970s, Dargaud published Valentin le vagabond, a short-lived series of seven issues that paired the talents of René Goscinny and Jean Tabary. Following the adventures of its wandering, resourceful title character, the series is a lesser-known gem from the creative duo best remembered for Iznogoud. Tabary handled both writing and art across most of the run, crafting a lighthearted, episodic travelogue that showcases the playful humor and detailed cartooning of its era. It stands as a curious footnote in the careers of two French comics giants, offering a glimpse of their collaboration beyond their most famous work.
