Comic Strip #4: Dugo putovanje / Noć grabljivica / Zvijeri / Kraj Crnog Sokola / Nasljednik
Blueberry, Jeremiah, Comanche, Redbeard and Largo Winch feature in Comic Strip #4. Westerns, maritime adventure and contemporary suspense are complemented by Gaston’s short humorous episodes.
Comic Strip #4 brings together five adventure series and Gaston’s humour. Its continuing stories range from Western landscapes and maritime adventure to contemporary suspense and a world following the collapse of civilisation.
Blueberry: La Longue Marche combines Jean-Michel Charlier’s writing with Jean Giraud’s artwork. The second Western, Comanche: Les Fauves, is by Greg and Michel Rouge. Their inclusion offers an opportunity to compare two distinctive artistic approaches to the same genre.
Hermann’s La Nuit des rapaces represents Jeremiah, while Redbeard: La Fin du « Faucon noir » provides maritime adventure by Charlier and Victor Hubinon. Jean Van Hamme and Philippe Francq’s Largo Winch: L’Héritier broadens the selection with a contemporary story involving the dangers surrounding wealth and inheritance.
André Franquin’s Gaston changes the pace through short humorous episodes. Cartooning and visual gags appear alongside realistic adventure artwork, giving the issue the varied character of a traditional comics magazine.
The longer stories are serialised across several issues. This volume also offers a selection of major European creators whose recognisable styles can be compared within a single publication.
