Eventually, he founded his own freight company, Bravo Air Charter Service, and became famous in Hollywood. This comic, created by Alex Toth, pays tribute to the Roaring Twenties by caricaturing the stereotypes of the era through the character of Jesse Bravo, a biplane pilot often embroiled in dark stories.

Critique de Bravo pour l'aventure

Dean Mullaney provides insights into the author's political vision regarding the artist's profession in this comic. Despite a few failed attempts at publication, Paquet Editions offers both a black-and-white version and a colored version that are equally charming. The current reading of the album provides a light and amusing tribute, although the psychedelic caricature is borderline. This curiosity will please fans of old-school sequential art. The character of Jesse Bravo is a fascinating example of the rugged, individualistic aviator so prevalent in 1920s pop culture. Overall, Toth's work on this comic serves as a refreshing reminder of a time when daring pilots were the stuff of legend.
