There are three chapters of the Airtight Garage of Jerry Cornelius in this issue. The first chapter is two pages long. This is the second.
What’s interesting here is how the translation fucked up this title sequence. In French, the strip is called Le Garage Hermétique de Jerry Cornelius. You can see that Le Garage is left the same at the top. If you squint, you can read the “de” on the side of the vehicle in the last panel. The word “Hermetique” has been replaced by “Airtight” in both panels, which really doesn’t work because now we’re reading about Le Garage Airtight de Jerry Cornelius – which just sounds ridiculous for something this beautiful.
