About the series

From 1954 to 1960, Editions Lug published Plutos, a 21-issue French comic series that stands as an essential artifact of post-war European science-fiction publishing. The anthology magazine blended original French stories with translations of American newspaper strips and comic books, introducing local readers to a wide array of interplanetary adventures and futuristic tales. Known for its distinctive mix of homegrown talent and imported material, Plutos helped shape the tastes of a generation of French comic fans during the medium's Silver Age.
