	townscapes by pierre christin and enki bilal - book reviews at zone-sf.com
		It's interesting then that Christin and Bilal achieve this by placing a nameless character in the centre of the action in each one, a man who whilst he's not the hero or central character, is instrumental to the action.
		Christin's favoured theme of class struggle is far more open here, with the property developer's yacht damaging the fishing boat and causing them to lose their catch within the first few pages.
		Christin's Jadencourt is a microcosm of the political climate at the time, the tattered remnants of 1960s' radicalism running up against the increasingly cynical, increasingly capitalistic establishment of the 1970s.

	Valerian
		However, time caught up with Mezieres and Christin, and when 1986 came, they had to address the question of why had the explosion not occurred.
		, Mezieres and Christin poke gentle fun at American superheroes, in a story about a competition between Valerian and three super-powered alien champions to become the progenitors of a new generation of children for a dying race.
		Mezieres and Christin finally come to grips with the non-occurrence of the 1986 nuclear explosion.

		Pierre Christin was also in the United States, teaching French literature at the University of Salt Lake City in Utah.
		After returning to France Christin and Mézières worked out a method of developing comic strips and in 1967 they created the science-fiction series "Valérian" for Pilote: "La Cité des eaux mouvantes", collected for album publication in 1968, was the first adventure.
		Mézières continues to draw the Valerian strip for Christin: the most recent adventure, "Les mauvais rêves", was published in 2000, and centered on the adventures of Laureline.

	The Friday Review: The Hunting Party
		It's for reasons such as these that I find it particularly appropriate that Enki Bilal and Pierre Christin's THE HUNTING PARTY is set in the winter.
		Christin's script, meanwhile, is a typically pacey and robust affair.
		Christin has an admirable track record for curbing the occasionally self-indulgent tendencies that have hampered many of Bilal's other, solo works.

	MediaMente: Jean Claude Méziéres
		When winter came, and with it the snow, he fled to join Christin, who was teaching French literature at the University of Salt Lake City in Utah.
		Returning to France, Christin and Mézières perfected their working method: interaction in the construction of plots, collaboration, bouncing ideas off each other.
		Unaware that they had created an endless saga, Mézières and Christin found themselves at the centre of an intereting temporal paradox: in an album drawn in 1968, they had predicted a universal cataclysm in 1986, a date which had seemed sufficiently remote in time, 1984 having already been spoken for...

	Comics: Mézières & Christin, Linda and Valentin (1972- ) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Mézières and Christin have used their science fictional world to explore radical ideas and thoughts, without selling out on the plot.
		There is usually a moral twist to the story which force the two heroes to question their goal, partially sympathize with their enemies, or even take seperate sides and to some extent fight each other.
		Mézières and Christin's universe is always flavoured with a wide variety of very colourful, tragical, or comical creatures from other worlds.

	The Town that Didn't Exist (ADD Review)
		Bilal and Christin humanize both sides, though, and the spanner in the works is the unexpected death of the owner and the arrival of his granddaughter, whose solution to the ongoing standoff is unique and surprising.
		She may not be able to walk, but she runs roughshod over anyone who tries to stand in her way.
		Christin's story is human and touching, focusing on the way the events of the story play out for one young boy, and beginning and ending the story with his dreams, and how they play into his hopes for the future.

	Comixfan Forums - THE CHAOS EFFECT REVIEW
		The Chaos Effect is a collection of two original graphic novels by writer Pierre Christin and artist Enki Bilal, the same team that brought us Townscapes.
		Christin and Bilal complement each other perfectly, and the best material I’ve seen from either has come through the partnership with the other.
		The characters are old men and women, having spent the majority of their lives not as soldiers but as politicians, professors and even priests.

	Bags and Boards: About Town
		Enki Bilal is one of the most-admired graphic-novel artists in the world, and Pierre Christin one of the field's top writers.
		The art, as fans of Bilal would expect, is drop-dead gorgeous, full of outstanding detail and texture with no panel spared the artist’s utmost attention and effort.
		That alone makes this book worth a look; that Christin’s stories are intelligent and fascinating make the combination a superb, rare treat.

	The Black Order Brigade HC Review - Silver Bullet Comics
		Instead, the reader is dragged across nearly every border in Europe as this not-too-friendly group of counter revolutionaries endeavor to discover not only the extent of the plot against them but also the meaning of their own lives in the realities of a post-Cold war world.
		Though the underlying story (as seen in the plot summary) is hardly a new one, Pierre Christin is able to twist the necessary plot devices into statements on the futility and brutality of warfare, however righteously motivated.
		In the end, it almost becomes a study in evolving into that which you oppose and despise, much like Grant Morrison's The Invisibles, leaving the reader questioning the nature of conflict and whether it truly pays out what it appears to offer.

		While some may object to the smaller company being absorbed by one of the Big Two, the money behind DC is helping bring more of the European comics to American readers, and more European talent (the English don’t count as European; sorry Warren Ellis).
		So when I saw a copy of Bilal and Pierre Christin’s The Hunting Party…well, honestly I didn’t really have any interest in the book, but figured it would make for some fine review material so I grabbed a copy.
		Something happened while reading it that has rarely ever happened to me while reading a comic book: I knew that it was a well-written, well-researched story with excellent artwork that had several intellectual levels to it’s plotting and structure, and I still didn’t like it.

		Celsius chose his references to be the boiling point of water at one atmosphere pressure which he called 0, and the freezing point which he called 100.
		One year later Jean Pierre Christin in France turned the scale over and invented the scale we use today.
		So the °C should stand for the Christin scale, not the Celsius scale.

		Author Pierre Christin's story has the satisfying weight of verisimilitude--and thematically he really gets what has to be here for this tale to work: the bitter intercourse of the past and the present.
		Christin's large, mostly uninteresting cast is populated by Hollywood cut-outs (think a left-wing "Dirty Dozen," bereft of the charm).
		Though its intricacies and sweep are compelling, the plotting isn't above an occasional cheat.

		In addition to picking up some of Jodorowsky's Meta Baron work, I also found Bilal's Townscapes, a triptych of short pieces from the 1970s revolving around weird towns or buildings.
		The artwork by Bilal is wonderful and the stories by Pierre Christin beautifully strange.
		A recurring figure for change and/or justice, a blonde-haired man, drifts through these stories as the main linkage in the triptych.
