    The adventures of Jodelle / Guy Peellaert, Pierre Bartier -- The Jodelle style / by Pierre Sterckx -- Guy Peellaert : fragments of the pop years, 1960-1970.
    Summary: 
    The legendary 1960s pop art graphic novel from acclaimed visual artist Guy Peellaert. In the 1960s, a Belgian advertising dropout, fed up with the corporate world, conceived the first "adult comic book", The Adventures of Jodelle, virtually off the top of his head. Guy Peellaert obliterated the conventions of what had up to that point been a minor, childish medium. Ironically appropriating the face and body of the teen idol Sylvie Vartan, he fashioned a new kind of heroine, a sensual, parodically beautiful spy. For his setting he chose a defiantly anachronistic Roman Empire, into which irrupted the most flamboyant symbols of a conquering America. Peellaert drew from the most exciting stimuli of his time, subjecting them to his powerful formal innovations: Pop Art, extreme fashions, strident advertising, shock graphics, and cinematic techniques. Published to thunderous acclaim in France in 1966 and then throughout Europe and in the U.S., Jodelle was an instant classic. Accompanied by an 80-page textual supplement "Fragments of the Pop Years" which traces the creative path travelled by this maverick artist, who skipped from comics to cinema and moving through fashion, periodicals, and television, including collaborations with many of the great figures of mythical 1960s-era Paris, from Serge Gainsbourg to Yves Saint Laurent.
