Summary: Laureline and Valerian are given the honor of transporting Earth's ambassador to Central Point, where it is to be Earth's turn to preside over the governing body there. Central Point is a millennia-old meeting place with segments built by every known spacefaring civilization, which is governed by a panel of ambassadors with a rotating chairmanship. Just before they arrive, the ambassador gives them instructions. The ambassador says that since the galaxy is so anarchic, Earth plans to take control and straighten things up. Certain other races are prepared to back Earth's grab for power. Valerian and Laureline are to be his bodyguards and not take initiative. Laureline is given a "grumpy converter" as a source of funds for the undertaking. They have no sooner landed than the ambassador is kidnapped by mercenaries. Valerian manages to grab their ship and get taken along, and Laureline is left with a protocol officer whose buffet has been ruined. Three Shingouz come to visit and to sell information. For 1500 pearls, which the grumpy converter creates from a sample they provide, Laureline gets a map of Central Point and advice to contact some mercenaries called Kamuniks. Laureline goes to find them, and Captain Protocol goes along, though protesting that leaving one's own segment just isn't done. The passageways between the segments are maintained by a race called the Zools, who don't talk or interfere. Luckily the Zools are oxygen breathers, so humans have no trouble moving around. The Kamuniks are centaurs who greet Laureline by using her as a ball in a game like polo. For 100 blood-and-guts tabs fabricated by the grumpy converter, the Kamuniks advise Laureline to seek the Suffuss segment where Bagoulin mercenaries are gathering. The Suffuss run a house of ill repute, but Laureline resists their blandishments. In exchange for a batch of aphrodisiac tablets from the grumpy converter, Laureline is given a disguise as a female Bagoulin so she can overhear that Valerian and the ambassador are in the hands of the Groubos. For a bit of time after making the aphrodisiacs, the converter is no longer grumpy. Another thousand pearls to the Shingouz and she learns that the Groubos must be communicated to through Zuurs Pilots, a kind of symbiotic jellyfish. Laureline goes to the Groubos segment, grabs a jellyfish and puts it over her head, but the information is not specific enough. A homeless man comes along, and for an armload of shellfish created by the grumpy converter he leads Laureline and Colonel Protocol to the Gnarfs-Dreamers. At about this time Valerian and the ambassador come out of stasis and are able to communicate with each other, and the ambassador says that there are ten thousand Earth warships ready to surround Central Point. Valerian and the ambassador find themselves on an ancient planet of people who consider themselves shadows, but who are of the race that originated Central Point. They watch things, but don't interfere unless a single power tries to impose its rule. The ambassador listens to their arguments and has a change of heart. Meanwhile the Zools are massing in the passageways with weapons. The converter fills a container with coins, and the Gnarfs-Dreamers show Laureline and the protocol officer how to get to the planet of the shadows. The four Earth people are reunited, and Valerian calls himself a hero. The ambassador goes to the council to give his speech. The Zools, however, have decided to reestablish a moral code, and have convinced the council to expel the Earth delegation for 100 years. Laureline calls in the warships to help in the evacuation, then shuts down one of the engines of their ship so the grumpy converter can recharge.

   Montreal, Québec : Drawn & Quarterly, 2015. -- 121 p. :
   col. ill. ; 25 cm. -- Summary (from amazon.com via OCLC):
   "Killing and Dying is a stunning showcase of the
   possibilities of the graphic novel medium and a wry
   exploration of loss, creative ambition, identity, and
   family dynamics. With this work, Adrian Tomine reaffirms
   his place not only as one of the most significant creators
   of contemporary comics but as one of the great voices of
   modern American literature. His gift for capturing emotion
   and intellect resonates here: the weight of love and its
   absence, the pride and disappointment of family, the
   anxiety and hopefulness of being a live in the twenty-first
   century. "Amber Sweet" shows the disastrous impact of
   mistaken identity in a hyper-connected world; "A Brief
   History of the Art Form Known as Hortisculpture" details
   the invention and destruction of a vital new art form in
   short comic strips; "Translated, from the Japanese" is a
   lush, full-color display of storytelling through still
   images; the title story, "Killing and Dying", centers on
   parenthood, mortality, and stand-up comedy. In six
   interconnected, darkly funny stories, Tomine forms a
   quietly moving portrait of contemporary life. Tomine is a
   master of the small gesture, equally deft at signaling
   emotion via a subtle change of expression or writ large
   across landscapes illustrated in full color. Killing and
   Dying is a fraught, realist masterpiece." -- Contents: A

   -- Complete in 6 nos. -- Summary (from OCLC): In 1962 Jason
   Fisher was given astonishing powers by the United States
   government-powers he used to defend the nation as the New
   American. He and his teammates in the Civil Defense Corps
   were real-life superheroes. Except that it was all a fraud.
   A conspiracy. And now, 10 years after the CDC was torn
   apart by racism, infighting and murder, the Corps'
   surviving members find themselves pulled in very different
   directions. Missy Devereaux-a.k.a. Ole Miss-is
   transitioning from the First Lady of Mississippi into a
   candidate for governor and defender of a vanishing and
   hateful way of life. Amber Eaton-formerly known as Amber
   Waves-has become a domestic terrorist, using her powers to
   infiltrate and destroy the country's centers of power.
   Somewhere in the middle stands Jason Fisher, who has
   remained a crime-fighter even as evidence mounts that he is
   accomplishing nothing besides propping up a system that's
   rigged against him as a black man in America. In a nation
   being torn apart, what does it mean to fight for the
   American way? Writer John Ridley and artist Georges Jeanty
   revisit their parallel Earth for a look at its gritty
   1970s, a time frighteningly like our own. -- Superhero

   it's a small, mostly abandoned rest-stop sitting along an
   isolated stretch of road nobody travels anymore. The town
   itself plays host today to at least four souls: Bob, an old
   man taking care of his withdrawn and invalid wife, Alaine;
   Larry, who lives on the other side of 66 and is caretaker
   of the old motel and cafe, now largely fallen into
   disrepair; and Larry's faithful canine companion, Jackson.
   This quiet, mostly wordless comix story depicts the life of
   two isolated men attempting to find meaning and place in
   the middle of nowhere." -- Alternative genre. -- Call no.:

   p. in Memín, no. 7 (1983). -- SUMMARY: Memín, Ricardito and
   Carlangas find their friend in the carpentry shop, drinking
   liquor. Ernestillo says that if his father can see his wife
   and talk to her when he's drunk, he wants to do it too and
   talk to his mother. When the boys take the bottle from him,
   Ernestillo attacks with a hammer and manages to knock
   himself out. His friends put him in his bed, and return to
   school. The teacher wants to know what they found, and they
   say Ernestillo wasn't home. The teacher doesn't believe
   them, and questions them until he gets the truth. The
   teacher rushes to the carpentry shop, sees Ernestillo
   unconscious, and calls an ambulance. The boys wait at the
   hospital while the teacher looks for Mr. Vargas, the
   missing father of Ernestillo. The news that his son is in
   the Red Cross hospital shocks Mr. Vargas, and hearing that
   Ernestillo was trying to see his mother fills him with
   shame. In the hospital, Ernestillo recovers. The teacher
   brings Mr. Vargas to his son, and he begs his son's

   Summary: Georges Barelli and Inspector Moreau arrive at a
   hospital to find that the reporter Randor, the patient they
   meant to visit, has been kidnapped. They deduce that it was
   the work of the "Chef," a gang leader and master of
   disguise. The Chef has stolen an ambulance and Moreau has
   sprained an ankle, so Barelli, Inspector Lapiste, and the
   ambulance driver give chase. The third ambulance they catch
   is the right one, but it's empty. They find Randor in a
   doctor's office near the abandoned vehicle, but not the
   Chef. Randor is soon kidnapped again from the doctor's
   office. This doctor is a plastic surgeon, and he is working
   for the Chef. A secret passage from the doctor's bathroom
   leads to a chase through tunnels. The Chef gets away, but
   Randor is recovered and Barelli ends up in a basement

   "The Flight of the Silver Saucers" (Captain Wings) 10 p. in
   Wings Comics, no. 112 (1950). -- Title from cover. --
   Though the art is substantially the same, this story is a
   thorough re-write of the Captain Wings story in Wings
   Comics, no. 53 (Jan. 1945), where it is signed "L. Elias."
   -- Summary: "Madam X" is a grounded bomber upon which
   "whiz-bombs" have been inappropriately mounted. It has been
   damaged and its crew is injured, and the plane is scheduled
   to be dismantled. A Japanese Zero crash-lands near the
   base, and a woman survives, managing to make the men think
   they've captured secret plans. After the squadron has left
   to take advantage of the plans, the woman steals a gun and
   kills the radio operator. The crew of Madam X figures out
   what has happened, and leaves sick bay in a suicide mission
   to spring the ambush the Japanese have set up. On page 7, a
   Japanese radioman says, "Silver disks-- our greatest
   arsenal gone! Shoot down that plane at any cost!" The
   whiz-bomb shown in p. 1 does seem to be disc-shaped, though
   from the title and cover art we would expect flying saucer
   UFOs. -- Call no.: PN6728.1.F5W5no.112

   "La Poudre aux Yeux" (Giddap Joe) p. 99-130 in Cap'tain
   Swing, no. 113 (Août 2003). -- Summary: Giddap Joe rides
   into Axonville, and the town appears deserted. The men of
   the town are waiting in ambush, however, and Giddap soon
   has a noose around his neck and is headed for a lynching.
   Then a little girl, Julie Copping, cries out that Joe is
   her friend, and the townspeople relent. They had thought
   that Joe was part of a gang chasing Jim and Rose Copping,
   Julie's parents. Julie gives Joe the map to her father's
   gold strike. Joe decides he'd better go help his old friend
   Jim, so he thanks the townspeople for the loan of the
   necktie, takes it off, and prepares to leave. Before he can
   start, Lou Marks knocks him down and steals the map. In
   flashback, we learn that after Copping found the gold, the
   crooked sheriff of the town of Garriot has tried to steal
   his claim. Copping had shot "sheriff" Kaye in the arm, and
   Copping had spent three years in jail for it. Upon his
   release, Kaye was waiting with to cronies to continue the
   pursuit of Copping's gold. In the present, Lou Marks
   volunteers to join Giddap Joe as he rides out to find the
   Coppings. Marks is sure that Joe didn't see him when he
   stole the map. In the mountains, Rose Copping's horse is
   frightened by a rattlesnake, and she falls to the ground
   and is threatened by the snake. She wants Jim to shoot the
   snake, but he is sure that the sound of the shot would
   bring Kaye and his men straight to them. He lassos the
   snake neatly around its "neck" and throws it aside. Rose's
   horse's leg is broken, and Jim won't shoot it for the same
   reason, but Rose shoots it out of compassion. Sure enough,
   the couple is captured in a trice and threats to Rose soon
   elicit another map from Jim. At the entry to the cave where
   the gold is, Kaye stops and sends one of his men in to
   check the truth of Copping's story. The man doesn't come
   out, so Kaye sends another man in. Giddap Joe and Lou Marks
   (Lou having had a change of heart) were waiting inside the
   cave and have overpowered the two men. Joe then steps out
   of the cave and arrests Kaye. -- Call no.:

   of War, no. 90 (Mar./Apr. 1962). -- Summary: Johnny leaves
   his patrol when Tex spots an unknown Mustang about to be
   ambushed by a Messerschmitt. It turns out the Mustang pilot
   didn't need help, but when Johnny returns to his flight
   it's surrounded by German fighters. Johnny's unexpected
   return saves the day, and back at the base the new pilot
   reports. His name is Lt. Tom Talon, and like Cloud he is
   Native American. The other pilots observe the meeting of
   the two men with these comments: "Look at the dead-pan way
   those two are looking at each other!" "Just like Indians!
   Never showing what they feel!" We learn that as boys the
   two men played together on the reservation, and that
   Talon's brother died during one of their games and Cloud is
   unfairly blamed for the death. Talon has sworn to kill
   Cloud, though the other men don't know this. On the next
   mission Johnny Cloud makes Talon his wingman, demoting a
   disapproving Tex to no. 3. Talon saves Cloud's life after
   first putting it in jeopardy. The next day Cloud saves
   Talon's life nearly at the expense of his own, and lands
   barely alive in enemy territory. Talon lands to pick him
   up, and they make it to safety even though being fired upon
   by a German tank. Talon considers the fact that Cloud saved
   his life to be payment of the debt for his brother's life.
