Barbarella, the comic by Jean-Claude Forest

I have almost no interest in comics but I make an exception for the European comics for grown-ups of the 1960s and 70s such as the Italian fumetti. They have a tone and a style radically different from and much more sophisticated than American comics of the 50s and 60s. 

And it’s certainly worth making an exception for Barbarella. 

Barbarella was created by Jean-Claude Forest and the first Barbarella comic saw the light of day in the French V Magazine in 1962. Her first appearance in book form was in 1964.  And it's available in English.
