Guy Peellaert (1934 - 2008) was a Belgian painter, illustrator, comic artist and photographer. His first pop-art comic Les Aventures de Jodelle (1966) was a sensation. His follow-up, Pravda La Survireuse ("Pravda the Survivor") was published in 12 issues in the monthly Hara-Kiri the next year. And then published as an album. Outside of some offset fading to the cover, this is a sharp example of the first printing from 1968.

It has never been published in English.

Préface de Henri Chapier.

Peellaert studied art in brussels and worked as a set designer in the theatre, and in 1966 he published his first story in comics, ‘les adventures de jodelle'. The following year he created the character ‘pravda la survireuse' (pravda the misfit), one of the first french comics to combine eroticism with pop culture in a pyrotechnic sequence of situations. Peellaert draws inspiration from Françoise Hardy for his heroine: a modern amazon dressed in leather and riding a powerful motorbike. Pravda's adventures take place in a city of the future populated by a degenerate version of humanity.
