Synopsis:

Soon to be a major motion picture releasing in July!! To be directed by Luc Besson, director of the 5th Element and Leon: The Professionnaland starring Dane DeHann, Cara Delevingne, Clive Owen, and Rihanna!!

Valerian and Laureline, one of the most influential science-fiction comic series of the past 40 years: there is already 12 volumes available today!

Readers will love, Valerian, who is an attractive action anti-hero and Laureline, an early incarnation of the strong, take-charge female!

Valerian and Laureline's ship has crash-landed on an uncharted planetoid. The two castaways quickly discover a vast ship cemetery, leading them to believe that their arrival was not an accident. Before long, they make contact with a population whose sole purpose seems to be to gather and produce food for a mysterious 'Master.' The Terran agents aren't going to be turned into slaves easily, but the Master enforces his will through his terrible agents; the Birds of Madness.

About the Author:

Jean-Claude Mezieres and Pierre Christin created 'Valerian' in 1967 after working in the USA together, one as a cowboy, the other a teacher. While 'Valerian' is Mezieres' only comic series, he's worked as an illustrator in many other areas, including designs and sets for 'The Fifth Element,' and he was awarded the Grand Prix du festival d'Angouleme in 1984. Christin also works in collaboration with other artists such as Tardi and Bilal and writes novels and film scripts.
