Valentina

Valentina, a long-running series from Albin Michel that began in 1983, is the definitive work of Italian cartoonist Guido Crepax, showcasing his elegant, psychologically charged art and storytelling. Centered on the enigmatic photographer Valentina, the series is celebrated for its sophisticated blend of eroticism, surrealism, and pop art, which pushed the boundaries of European comics. With Crepax as the sole creative force, the series remains a landmark of avant-garde graphic narrative, influencing generations of artists with its dreamlike panels and bold visual style.
