Buddy Longway
Buddy Longway is a western comic book written by the Swiss comic book writer Derib. It is published under the Le Lombard publishing house. The first issue came out in 1972, and 16 issues were published until 1987 until Derib restarted the series in 2002, continuing with four further issues until 2006,[1] until he announced that the 20th issue, La Source, would be the last.[2] Both the story arcs and the drawings are praised for the realistic portrayal of the simplistic, rough life as a trapper.[3]

Jonathan (bande dessinée) - Wikipédia
Jonathan
Jonathan est un occidental qui parcourt l'Himalaya, à travers l'Inde du Nord et le Népal. Ses pérégrinations lui font traverser le Tibet occupé, rencontrer de nombreux personnages, passer dans des lieux réels comme Leh, Srinagar, Katmandou ou Lhassa. Les aventures de Jonathan sont fortement marquées par des aspects à la fois amoureux (c'est la cause initiale de son départ pour l'Himalaya), amicaux, esthétiques (avec le colonel dans L'Espace bleu entre les nuages, puis Kate dont la rencontre initiale est marquée par l'achat manqué d'une thangka), politiques et spirituels (avec son soutien à la cause tibétaine, et une méfiance constante vis-à-vis du gouvernement chinois).

Valérian and Laureline
Valérian and Laureline (French: Valérian et Laureline), also known as Valérian: Spatio-Temporal Agent (French: Valérian: Agent Spatio-Temporel) or just Valérian, is a French science fiction comics series, created by writer Pierre Christin and artist Jean-Claude Mézières. First published in the magazine Pilote in 1967, its latest installment was published in 2007. All of the Valérian stories have been collected in graphic novel album format, comprising some twenty-one volumes plus a short story collection and an encyclopaedia. Valérian is one of the top five biggest selling Franco-Belgian comics titles of its publisher, Dargaud.[1]
The series centres around the adventures of the spatio-temporal agent, the dark-haired Valérian, and his redheaded female companion, Laureline, as they travel the universe through space and time. Valérian is a classical anti-hero, strong and brave but with a tendency to follow the orders of his superiors even if he feels, deep down, that it is the wrong thing to do. On the other hand, his companion Laureline manages to combine sex-appeal with intelligence and independence making her one of science fiction's most notable heroines. Influenced by classic literary science fiction, the series combines elements of space opera and time travel. Christin's scripts are noted for their humour and strongly liberal political slant while Mézières' art is noted for its vivid depictions of the alien worlds and species Valérian and Laureline encounter on their adventures.
