Page Sam le Pirate - 1 page gag! Jacques Pyon is a French comic artist and a pioneering figure of the Parisian underground comics scene of the late 1970s and 1980s, associated with the bookshop/gallery Un Regard Moderne and contemporaries such as the Bazooka Group. He contributed to the satirical magazine Hara-Kiri alongside his frequent collaborator Charlie Schlingo, and later published through independent presses including Le Dernier Cri and Les Requins Marteaux. This is a one-page gag strip, from early in his career - very rare to find.
