Crossover Covers: Le Pilote Sans Visage/Jari Dans la Tourmente



Race car driver Michel Vaillant meets Jari Lorrain at a tennis tournament where Jari’s guardian, pro Jimmy Torrent, is competing. This meeting is shown from Jari’s point of view in Raymond Reding’s “Jari dans la tourmente” in Le Journal de Tintin in 1958, and from Michel Vaillant’s point of view in “Le Pilote sans visage” by Jean Graton in the same magazine in 1959. The latter was reprinted as a standalone album in 1960. Graton’s comic Michel Vaillant is in the CU through Derrick Ferguson’s “Dillon and the Judas Chalice,” so Reding’s Jari is also in. 

This crossover is one of hundreds covered in my book Crossovers Expanded: A Secret Chronology of the World Volume 3, which will be published by Meteor House! All three volumes are AUTHORIZED companions to Win Scott Eckert's Crossovers: A Secret Chronology of the World Volumes 1 and 2!
