A magnificent book for those interested in drawing, automotive, sports or comics. The first biography devoted to Jean Graton is surprising in its richness, because Michel Vaillant’s immense success has obscured the other sides of his talent:
the press cartoons for the newspaper Les Sports, Les Belles Histoires de l'Oncle Paul in Spirou, the covers of Tintin, Les Labourdet, as well as the female adventure stories in Line and Julie Wood.
With Michel Vaillant, Jean Graton told the automotive adventure to several generations of readers, and helped initiate countless very different professional vocations. Some of his passionate readers have become great pilots, journalists or designers.
By retracing the career of this multi-talented artist, Xavier Chimits and Philippe Graton make us relive not only the golden age of motorsport, but also the great era of comics.
