Description
Summary:Found on a continuous basis in the cinema and in literature, the Second World War largely disappears from comic book stories between 1950 and 1965. Les Aventures du Grêlé 7/13, featured by the scriptwriter and former Resistance fighter, Roger Lécureux, in the magazines Vaillant and Pif, offers a new vision of the war to the young who did not experience it. Though depicting a young lonely male hero with whom readers can identify is classic in comic books, Le Grêlé enables the author to depict a period of time he attempts to define in an educational way, albeit subjective. In a context marked by the Vietnam war and the reconciliation between the French and the Germans, Lécureux is thus describing a struggle between two young members of the Maquis and the occupying Nazi as well as inserting historical facts and personal values.
