Aug 15, Calista rated it liked it Shelves:bage-middle- gradecomics-graphic-novelgenre-fantasyhistioricalseriesseries-unfinishedbage-young-adulti-miscgenre-thriller. This is a collected comic from the late 60s and beyond. In the preface, it speaks to the fact that Star Wars took this as inspiration - I don't see it really. They are both set in space, that's about it. I think this was probably cutting edge for the 60s, yet now it feels very childish. There is a lot of time travel and I'm not a fan of time travel. Back to the future did it well and now it's become a silly device everyone uses to bad effect. I do like t This is a collected comic from the late Valerian: Volume 12 and beyond. I do like the art here. It does set a tone well and is visually appealing. There are 3 stories Valerian: Volume 12 and they really don't relate much to each other. The movie Valerian is based off this. I actually Valerian: Volume 12 the movie was entertaining and spectacular. I don't see much connection from what I just read to the movie. The movie made everything so much better by leaps and bounds. I read this after the movie and Valerian: Volume 12 think I'll stick to the movie. This feels too dated to Valerian: Volume 12 now. Because it's a groundbreaking comic from the 60s, I gave it 3 stars. View all 4 comments. Feb 25, Andrew rated Valerian: Volume 12 really liked it. Well I finally got my hands on it, and I must admit I really have enjoyed the first three stories in the adventures of Valerian: Volume 12 and Laureline. I will admit that I wasn't sure what I was letting myself in for - since the first story is really a back story of how the partnership was formed which reading the notes were not published in the original order. However I can see where the love of these characters and their adventures come from. The comic strip was started in the late 60s and by the author Well I finally got my hands on Valerian: Volume 12, and I must admit I really have enjoyed the first three stories in Valerian: Volume 12 adventures of Valerian and Laureline. The comic strip was started in the late 60s and by the authors own admission it was not very good. However even after the first 3 adventures you can see how the characters and the story along with the quality of the artwork evolved and improved. The series ran till and was collected originally in 22 books of which are now being released again in this complete collection. There are many references to the tales of Valerian and Laureline - in this book there are parallels drawn to Star Wars and of course Luc Bessons film the fifth element draws very heavily from the visuals too not surprising as they consulted on that film too. I will admit that any beginning is a slow start and this is no exception - but Valerian: Volume 12 can see there are great things to come which I am thoroughly looking forward to exploring as it would seem this was one of those stories where their influence goes much further than you can possible imagine rather like Valerian: Volume 12 work Mobius. I can see I Valerian: Volume 12 be having to clear some more shelf space in the near future - oh dear. View 1 comment. Valerian: Volume 12 18, Tom rated it really liked it. I wanted to find out a bit more about who Valerian and by extension, Laureline was before the movie came out. This volume covers his first three Valerian: Volume 12, and to be honest, the first two didn't do much for me as they seemed to be more silly than anything else. Then the third story, "Empire of a Thousand Planets," came along Valerian: Volume 12 showed some great creativity, nifty escapes, and made the most of the setting's sci-fi background. That one made the whole volume worth it, particularly if the first I wanted to find out a bit more about who Valerian and by extension, Laureline was before the movie came out. That one made the whole volume worth it, particularly if the first two were more of the writer and artist finding their respective grooves with the character.
