The three stories in this paperback volume are: On The Frontiers from 1988, The Living Weapons from 1990, and The Circles Of Power from 1994. The Valerian comic ran from 1967 to 2010. I never reviewed it, since I was away from the computer at the time, and the book is in Spanish, and I was too lazy when I got home to see if it is even in the GR database.Īnyway again, I recently noticed Valerian: The New Future Trilogy at my favorite online used bookseller so I snapped it up and (finally) here we are. I bought it and discovered that it had three stories most concerned with the City Of A Thousand Planets, which were the main influences for the movie. So last year, while in the Central Del Norte in Mexico City waiting for my bus to be called for yet another trip north, I happened to see a graphic novel featuring Valerian. The movie may not have been a box-office hit, but I thought it was fun and I really liked the two main characters, Valerian and Laureline. The 2017 movie Valerian And The City Of A Thousand Planets was running and I saw most of it. Īnyway, that is where I first met Valerian. I slept a lot during those trips (minimum 26 hours on the road, sometimes longer) but every once in awhile I would be awake for whatever movies were being shown. When I was living in Mexico I made a twice-yearly bus trip north to visit Mom for a week at a time.
