Guy Peellaert (1934 - 2008) was a Belgian painter, illustrator, comic artist and photographer. His pop-art comic Les Aventures de Jodelle (1966) was published in English in 2013. This is a collection of four comic stories from 1968-1970 that have never been published in book form, accompanied by reproductions of the original pages.

From the publisher:

From Pravda the Survivor (1967) to Rock Dreams (1973), we know Guy Peellaert's taste for hybrids and mixing genres. Less famous, these four experimental works serialized in Hara-Kiri (The Game, She and the Green Hairs, Carashi and Marsha Bronson) are marked by their black humor, their acid colors and a furious alloy of drawing and photomontage, as much influenced by Dadaism as by the ambient psychedelia.

Resume:

De Pravda la Survireuse (1967) à Rock Dreams (1973), on connait le goût de Guy Peellaert pour l'hybride et le mélange des genres. Moins célèbres, ces quatre oeuvres expérimentales parues en feuilleton dans Hara-Kiri marquèrent néanmoins l'après-Mai 68 par leur humour noir, leurs couleurs acides et un furieux alliage de dessin et de photomontage, autant influencé par le dadaïsme que par le psychédélisme ambiant.

The Game, She and the Green Hairs, Carashi et Marsha Bronson voient ici leur première publication sous forme de livre, accompagnés de reproductions de planches originales et d'une présentation par Alexandre Devaux et Orson Peellaert.

« Peellaert mélange dessins et photomontages pour un effet sidérant, plongeant l'oeil dans une instabilité constante entre la réalité et le fantasme. (...) Telle une marelle sous psychotrope, le récit avance à cloche-pied dans l'ellipse pour atteindre le septième ciel. »

Nicolas Lorthios, Les Cahiers de la BD
