Ο Μικρός Πρίγκιπας: Ο πλανήτης των Αιολιανών
Ο Μικρός Πρίγκιπας επέστρεψε στον αστεροειδή του, τον Β612. Έχοντας συντροφιά το Ρόδο του και την Αλεπού, ζει φιλήσυχα και ονειρεύεται στον έναστρο ουρανό... Όμως νά που τ’ αστέρια σβήνουν. Ένας σατανικός εχθρός, το Φίδι, επιτίθεται στο Σύμπαν! Μόνο ο Μικρός Πρίγκιπας θα μπορέσει να τα βάλει μ’ αυτόν τον καταστροφέα των ονείρων... Έτσι ανοίγει ο δρόμος της περιπέτειας για τον Μικρό Πρίγκιπα και την Αλεπού.
Μόλις ο Μικρός Πρίγκιπας φτάνει σ’ αυτόν τον πλανήτη, συναντάει τους Αιολιανούς, έναν λαό που έχει μοναδική πηγή ενέργειας τον άνεμο. Με τον άνεμο θερμαίνει και τον πλανήτη του, που αντιμετωπίζει διαρκώς την απειλή των πάγων. Όμως εδώ και λίγο καιρό, ο άνεμος γίνεται πιο αδύναμος, κι αυτό είναι μεγάλο πρόβλημα. Ο Μικρός Πρίγκιπας θ’ ανακαλύψει ότι όλα ξεκίνησαν από τη διαφωνία του Κυβερνήτη των Ανέμων με το γιο του τον Ζέφυρο (Από το οπισθόφυλλο του βιβλίου).

"The Little Prince" is one of my favorite books but this is just bad. I love the characters in the original story because they are simple and thought-provoking. In this adaptation (which is apparently based on a TV show) the characters have become sarcastic and cheesy. The fox is cute and the art is pretty good but the dialogue was awful and the plot didn't really make sense. I am not a big fan of graphic novels but I was excited to see this at the library. I understand that this was made to appeal to kids so maybe it is just not my taste, but I will not be reading the others.

I cannot understand the negative ratings, that say it has nothing to do with the original story. Well, of course. It is based on the episode "the planet of wind" of the series.
I have to say, I watched the episode and found the charaters and their story very interesting, but the plot was a little too simple and quite unrealistic.
Whereas the graphic novel shows a more complex and deeper storyline, the characters are well written and they seem credible.
I even would say, that the graphic novel is the adult version, for those who liked the idea of the episode "planet of wind" but wished a little more action, dramatic and characters that you can sympathise with.
To put it in a nutshell, I adored the story and I even wrote ideas for a potencial fanfiction and a character "relationsship analysis" (I do this whenever I want to read more of a story, but there cleary will nothing come in the future)
Anywayyy, I think the book is worth a read, when you like the animated series and have no problem with sever changes of the original story. See the novel and the series as a great fanfic, because that is it what it is :)

Kinda makes me think of the prince as the Doctor. Hmmmm. Well you're thrown right into the action and adventure with not much of a premise but for a note to Rose (another Doctor similarity) as to how the Prince and the fox are off to save planets from the evil influence of the Snake. Pretty simplistic. The art is cute, but the stories just seem to be lacking.

Why are snakes always depicted as being evil. Pretty pictures though.

[ADVERTENCIA: ESTA RESEÑA CONTIENE SPOLIERS Y COMPARACIÓN ENTRE LA NOVELA GRAFICA Y LA SERIE ANIMADA DEL 2010]
El Planeta de los Vientos. Es uno de los planetas que mas me han gustado por su concepto y la trama que nos trae. Sinceramente, me encantó mucho la serie de muy pequeña, no les voy anegar, soy una fan que le encanta mucho el fandom de la serie animada. Y, ahora puedo decir, que llegó el momento en donde PODRÉ HACER COMPARACIÓN Y SPOLIERS DE TODO TIPO. Si sos fan y ya consumiste tanto la serie como el comic, te invito que te sientes y traigas algo de comer. Posiblemente me olvide de algunas cosas, sin embargo, quiero hablar de este capitulo.
El planeta de los vientos, tiene una trama que a primera vista te puede parecer muy simple. Sin embargo, te enganchas con los personajes y el feedback que nos cuenta cada uno de ellos. Sabemos muy bien, que este es el primer capitulo de la linea cronologica canonica, segun las novelas graficas. Y se ve mucho en la serie. Debido a muchos detalles que se puede ver a simple vista.
- Principito y Zorro estan empezando a viajar por la galaxia, conociendo nuevos planetas cuando salen de B-612. Es cierto, que el planeta de los vientos, esta muy cerca del asteroide. Y eso marca algunas interrogantes al respecto de que tan expansioso es el universo.
- Los personajes están aprendiendo sobre la fuerza y los poderes de la Cobra. Y eso se ve más con la novela grafica, donde Principito tiene una charla gracias a un desmayo de impotencia y desesperación que obtiene por el caos.
Hay otros detalles, sin embargo, sería de un contenido con más spoliers de la novela gráfica. Una experiencia en la cual, no quiero arruinar para todes. Por ello, voy a rescatar puntos resaltantes que me gustaron muchisimo más de este tomo. Sabiendo que, en la serie animada, no lo muestran todo. Sin embargo, vamos a decir de una vez, de que trata este tomo.
Este tomo, se trata en si, sobre el Planeta de los Vientos. Donde, vemos que hay una crisis sobre 'los piratas'. Quienes, destruyen los vientos que protegen a la ciudad gracias a su musica. Y asi, el planeta se condene a congelarse. Sin embargo, vemos que el cuento de los piratas no existe. Debido a que, el Gran Maestro, oculta un secreto familiar bastante triste. Ocasionando que su hijo Zéphir, se vea obligado a rebelarse contra él, para que se cumpla sus sueños de ser musico, y no ser el proximo gobernante del planeta.
Es lo más resumido que se puede decir al respecto.
Sinceramente, hay detalles que me han llamado la atención, y que se pudieron colocar en la serie animada. Sin embargo, como la serie animada es para un publico infantil, no colocaron estas escenas. Aunque, ¿a quien les puedo engañar? En la temporada 02 se nos muestran este tipo de escenas que nos dejan traumados de por vida. Que aquí hay escenas de este tipo. Oh vamos, claramente se ve que los animadores se dejaron llevar al final del proyecto JAJAJAJAJAJJAA.
Uno de esos detalles, es la primera escena. Nos cuenta muy bien que es lo que sucedió con el padre del Gran Maestro. Y con eso, su inevitable deceso. Ya que, nos vemos obligados a ver como el abuelo de Zéphir terminó en malas condiciones y una muerte asegurada en todo tipo de peligros. Ocasionando un fuerte trauma para Eolus, el padre de Zéphir. Si no doy mal a entender, Eolus, tendría como 15 años cuando ocurrió el accidente. Haciendo de este, uno de los grandes maestros con mas años de gobierno.
Otro detalle, es la charla que tiene Principito y Cobra. Debido a que, en medio de todo el caos, vemos como -Fuerte spolier in coming- Eolus fue acorralado y se cae de la superficie principal de la ciudad. Ocasioando que, segun mis conocimientos, Principito se desmayé de impotencia y desesperación. Debo decir, que esta escena nunca se verá en la serie debido a lo tan grafica que es. Y tambien, por el simple hecho, de que es una serie para niños. No pondrian una escena de tal estilo al principio de una serie animada. ¿O si? Como recien es el primer capitulo, deben tener mucho cuidado. Y la charla que tienen Principito y Cobra cuando Eolus se cae, es bastante corta. Sin embargo, vemos como ese caos desaparece cuando, Principito despierta.
La escena de restauración, uuffff... ¡NECESITO VER ESO ANIMADO! Sé que nunca lo harán. ¡Y ESO ME MOLESTA! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. Como logran encontrar el viento legendario ¡Y CUANDO ZÉPHIR TOCA EL ORGANO! Es que, es hermosa esta escena. ¡¿POR QUE NO LA ANIMARON EH?! ¡ENSERIO, LO QUIERO VER ANIMADO! ¡AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Voy a llorar. Es una escena EPICA. AMÉ ESA ESCENA Y VER A ZÉPHIR FELIZ ME TIENE TAN CONTENTA. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.
Un detalle que si va aparecer en todos los tomos: Al principio, veremos la carta de forma muy resumida que le manda a Rosa. Esto en la serie, lo vemos que Rosa nos cuenta la aventura que vive Principito en una carta que el le manda. Sin embargo, la carta no nos sumerge tanto en si. Ocasionando un cambio de escenario inmediato y sin saber que onda JAJAJAJA. Bueno, cosas que pasan sinceramente.
¿Opinión de este tomo? Sinceramente, me ha gustado mucho. Los personajes, el ambiente, el estilo de dibujo es muy amigable a mi parecer. Está claro, que hay detalles canonicos que no te lo ponen en la serie animada. ¡Y necesito leer los demas! Aparte, empecé a leerlos en ingles, y es un ingles muy basico. Y me beneficia muchisimo, aprendo un poco más y mi reading puede mejorar conforme vaya leyendo. Si están comenzando con el ingles, se lo recomiendo bastante.
Y vale, esto ha sido todo por mi sincera parte. ¡Quiero ver sus comentarios! Veremos si podemos debatir mucho más del tema. Asi que, nos vemos!

The Little Prince: The Planet of Wind
Graphic novel based on animated series and an original story by Delphine Dubos
Adapted by Guillaume Dorison
This novel doesn't seem well suited for an abbreviated adaptation. That or the adaptation was poorly executed. The first 20 pages were a confusing wreck; it seemed as if large chunks of information were missing and the textual phrasing did not flow. I don't write this review having read the original works either, so my critique is on this book as a standalone. The characters were not well developed, so it was difficult to WANT to read further. I understand graphic novels tell a story in imagery as well as words; however, I have yet to read even a short comic book that had such a disjointed storyline as this one. I will give the illustrators credit though, the layout was beautifully executed. That said, I do not recommend children read this on a Kindle, iPad, or other medium-sized digital device because the artwork is detailed and requires close analysis. This series would perhaps appeal to children obsessed with graphic literature (so long as they don't critique quality and simply want to read as much as possible); however, I would not use this as a tool in an attempt to engage children in reading.
MAKING CONNECTIONS
Text-to-Self:
• This story has embedded lessons on morals and how to treat others. Students may be able to relate to the conflict between father and son that is caused by a misunderstanding and lack of communication.
• A less direct, none-the-less present, relation can be built between the snake's shady, persuasive methods and peer pressure felt by students in the upper elementary and middle school age ranges.
Text-to-Text:
• This reads like someone is trying to force moral lessons into a storyline that wasn't built for obvious messages. What do I mean? Elementary books are notorious for direct moral teachings: 'I Like Myself'…gee…I wonder what secret moral lesson that is concealing. Hmmm. The point of those books is to teach moral lessons in a direct yet entertaining way. What The Little Prince book does similarly is inject moral teachings. However, the execution is very different. The moral portions of the story are clumsily injected as if an afterthought. You will be reading about a journey through tornados to find magical winds and all of a sudden one of the characters will randomly inject a lecture on the value of communication with loved ones. WHAT!?!?!?
Text-to-World:
• The characters are from a time and place where Kings and Queens rule and children are Princes and Princesses. This can help students who are intrigued by royalty to connect with the storyline. The King and Prince are trying to protect their Kingdom and the people in it. That provides the real-world structure for this text.
• The tragedy from which they are trying to save their Kingdom is far from reality. The lack of winds causes the land to be covered by ice. To save the Kingdom, they must travel in a flying organ to find magic wind that can save the Kingdom forever. Real…Not Real. Hard to tell…

I went into this skeptical but it was worse than I could have imagined. The art was okay but the story barely held together. The Little Prince character felt like an afterthought and bore little resemblance to his namesake in appearance or spirit. And the whole snake thing was lame.
March 1, 2015
Although independently this book might have some funny humor, good story, and creative premise, using the Little Prince as an upbeat child detective with a grumpy fox sidekick to save the planet from global climate change is unforgivable.
A great betrayal by the Saint-Exupery estate. :-P

Симпатичний малюнок. Дуже милий та прикольний лис. Але сама історія надто вже наївна. Здається, я трошки розминулась із нею за віком. Рочків так на двадцять п'ять. Збирати всю серію з двадцяти з чимось там томів точно не буду. Але знаю, куди відправити цей мальопис, щоб він знайшов читачів зі своєї цільової авдиторії.

It keeps with the tradition of the original. Simple but beautiful concepts that make you think, gorgeous artwork and adventure. I think it'd be a great read for a younger child. it couldn't create the same kind of magic, though. I think that's a once in a life lighting strike.

Ich habe es auf Deutsch gelesen und es war sehr spannend.

I have to admit that I’m a bit offended that someone even tried to make a sequel to or spin-off series of The Little Prince. I think that they did better than I thought they would but I think it still doesn’t fulfill the expectations set up by the original book and its translated twin. The Prince doesn’t look like I thought he would exactly, although I’m not sure what I can say is wrong. I did find his “super powers” to be a bit cheesy- communicating with everything, sketching to bring forth things from imagination, forming objects out of paper, and being quick and agile. The description in the front of the book of these things also completely misses what proves to be his greatest strength- understanding people and good friends. The overall result becomes a bit didactic even if it is a fun fantasy adventure no worse than any other and has decently good art with cool perspectives and nice color palettes. I do think the color looks a bit digital and I’m getting less and less enthused with photoshop art in book illustration- it’s starting to become so common and typically run-of-the-mill rather than anything unique or innovative. It also seems a bit overwhelmingly “white” with no diversity among the rather human-like alien elves. I probably wouldn’t hesitate to toss this one when I’m done while I will keep my copies of Le Petit Prince forever. The “bonus story” by Moebius is filled with slapstick humor was also a bit of a let-down. Somehow I can never get used to the tendency of graphic novels to radically switch styles with guest artists covering the same characters. That said, it has an appropriate flat euro-style similar to what I’ve seen in some of Lewis Trondheim’s work that sort of actually works.

Знаєш… коли стає дуже сумно, приємно подивитись, як заходить сонце
Читати "Маленького принца" для мене стало традицією, оскільки це вже третій рік підряд беру до рук цю історію. Хоч цього разу це вже оригінальна історія.
Це комікс за мотивами мультсеріалу, який я обожнював у дитинстві й чекав нову серію з ще більшим захоплення.
Отож про комікс. Маленький принц разом з Лисом подорожують планетами аби все ж таки спіймати Змія. Цього разу їх занесло до Планети Вітрів, де найголовніше це вітер, але цей вітер крадуть і життя мешканців стає жахливим. Тому Маленький принц береться за справу аби розібратися що ж відбувається на цій планеті.
Про мої враження. Для мене це однозначно 5 з 5. Так, тут можливо немає тої атмосфери оригінальної історії, але для фанатів Маленького принца напевно буде все одно цікаво. Раджу аби відчути нове дихання цієї історії.

I worship the original 'The Little Prince' book, and checked out 4 of these from the library in a spurt of great enthusiasm, sure that even if I didn't love them their connection to the original story would be enough to keep me interested. I was very wrong. The art in this book is good, but that is literally the only positive thing I have to say about it. I did not even finish it, and in a book of only 56 pages, many of which are just pictures, I think that really says something about the low quality. There is literally nothing redeeming about the plot, the characters, or the tone of the book, and it in fact does not even make sense, either as a stand alone or as a shout out to the original book. Extremely disappointing.

I am not a fan of graphic novels or comic books so I wasn't really expecting to like this. Especially since I don't know that you can do justice to anything not from the original Le Petit Prince but I picked this up on a whim when I saw it in the young readers section of our local library. It felt a little like they were trying too hard to moralize or philosophize with the story. I also usually find that graphic stories depend too much on dialogue to carry a story and it just doesn't work. Maybe the rest of the stories in the series tie together and would make this work but I don't know if I'll try.
Want to Read
December 11, 2015Got this one for a dollar at the local discount store. Sent it over to my sister's house so her kids could look at it. Reportedly they did love it, which says absolutely nothing at all about the quality of this text (it looked more than a little hokey to me in the store) though they're into the Frozen movies, etc.
According to the cover, this edition also contains a "bonus story" by Moebius which is pretty neat.

Sigh. This is the Little Prince. I don't want to say anything bad about it...so let's just call this noncanon fanfiction. It's more enjoyable if you think of this in those terms. A little jolted in some places, like a poorly executed stop motion film. It was an ok read.

It's possible that one's response to this series depends on how one feels about the novel. I hate it, so...

I was so skeptical but this turned out to be a fantastic read! Recommending this to everyone 😍
November 8, 2024
This is... a completely original story that, for some reason, just HAS to use characters from The Little Prince, I guess for the draw. No one would read it unless the Little Prince was in it? I couldn't say for certain, but what I DO know is I originally only knew of (but still haven't seen) the anime, then when I finally read the original work, I was a little disappointed that there wasn't more.
I mean, not DISAPPOINTED, because it's a great book, but by finding out that the anime is pretty much this same sort of thing, taking someone else's characters and making a whole series that otherwise might not have been watched without the character borrowing.
Similarly, The Planet of Wind isn't a terrible story, but there's a letter to the Rose and a page listing the focal characters and some exposition, and that's the only introduction there is before jumping into the story in media res. The story itself *sort of* re-explains this as it goes, but it honestly does feel like there's a proper prologue missing.
Also, there are places where the colouring—as good a job as it is otherwise—just goes a bit haywire keeping the fox's pattern consistent:
I don't know. Again, it's not a BAD story... it just doesn't feel like a Little Prince story. Granted, the title page says it's based more on the animated series (even though... there are more than one? so which one? I guess this one?) and "an original story" by Delphine Dubos... which feels recursive. Either way, it feels gimmicky and could have been just as good without the Little Prince in it, I think.
(Fox should stay, though! Foxes are always good... except when they're bad, haha!)
There's a bonus short by Mœbius that's... weird. I kind of hate it, mostly because it feels like a story I wrote but never finished. Hmph! I guess I can't fault them (Mœbius and the book's publisher) on beating me to the punch, though, especially since I don't really want to be in the public eye, anyway! Definitely a different tone from the "main" story, though.
I mean, not DISAPPOINTED, because it's a great book, but by finding out that the anime is pretty much this same sort of thing, taking someone else's characters and making a whole series that otherwise might not have been watched without the character borrowing.
Similarly, The Planet of Wind isn't a terrible story, but there's a letter to the Rose and a page listing the focal characters and some exposition, and that's the only introduction there is before jumping into the story in media res. The story itself *sort of* re-explains this as it goes, but it honestly does feel like there's a proper prologue missing.
Also, there are places where the colouring—as good a job as it is otherwise—just goes a bit haywire keeping the fox's pattern consistent:
I don't know. Again, it's not a BAD story... it just doesn't feel like a Little Prince story. Granted, the title page says it's based more on the animated series (even though... there are more than one? so which one? I guess this one?) and "an original story" by Delphine Dubos... which feels recursive. Either way, it feels gimmicky and could have been just as good without the Little Prince in it, I think.

The Planet of Wind by Guillaume Dorison and Delphine Dubos offers a delightful and thoughtful return to the universe of The Little Prince. Rather than attempting to retell Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s beloved story, this graphic novel expands the world in a way that feels both respectful and refreshingly new.
The premise is immediately intriguing: stars across the universe are mysteriously going out along the path of the Serpent, and the Little Prince sets off from his asteroid—leaving behind his cherished Rose—to restore balance to troubled worlds. Accompanied by the ever-loyal Fox, he travels from planet to planet, encountering societies shaped by strange rules, conflicts, and moral imbalances. Each new world feels like a parable in motion, echoing the philosophical spirit of the original while exploring new themes suited to modern readers.
What makes this first volume particularly engaging is its sense of wonder. The storytelling captures the curiosity and quiet wisdom that define the Little Prince, while the episodic planetary encounters promise a broader adventure across the galaxy. The narrative strikes a pleasant balance between gentle reflection and cosmic quest, making it accessible to younger readers while still offering depth for adults who grew up with Saint-Exupéry’s classic.
The artwork complements the tone beautifully. The worlds feel imaginative and vibrant, and the visual storytelling helps convey the emotional nuance and whimsy that are so central to the Little Prince’s character.
Overall, The Planet of Wind is a charming and promising opening to the series. It manages the difficult task of expanding a literary icon’s universe while preserving the spirit of curiosity, empathy, and quiet philosophy that made the original story so enduring. A wonderful read for fans of *The Little Prince* and for anyone who enjoys thoughtful, visually rich science-fiction adventures.
Special note for the 3-page Moebius story at the end of the volume, a little gem from one of comics masters.

Fecha en que lo acabé: 21/08/2023.
Libro: Físico.
Páginas: 16 (30 contando ilustraciones)
Frase: "No solo habían salvado el planeta; le habían devuelto a su padre" "La música ha sido hecha para compartir..."
Nota final: 4,5
Considero que tengo un profundo cariño por 'El Principito', ya que fue uno de los primeros libros que me sumergió de lleno en el mundo de la lectura. Así que, básicamente, podría decirse que leería absolutamente todo lo que lo tenga a él como protagonista.
Teniendo eso en claro, podrán entender porqué compré esta edición —que ni siquiera sabia que existía— hace un año atrás.
Es una lectura que se hace en dos patadas porque es cortita y sencilla, como para leerle a algún infante de tu vida.
La recomiendo totalmente, sobretodo, como 'rito de iniciación' al mundo de Saint-Exupéry.
Querido Principito:
Soy quién soy y amo lo que hago, porque un día tuve el privilegio de conocerte y desde entonces, la calidez de aquella época siempre se hace presente mientras leo cualquier otro libro.
Tu esencia me acompañará a lo largo de mi vida y trataré, con todas mis fuerzas, de trasmitirla a cualquier persona que desconozca tu existencia.
Te quiero con la vida, pequeño.
-Bree.

Leer este libro fue como sumergirme en mi niñez nuevamente. Cuando a los 6 años conocí por primera vez al Principito. Y cuando en 2010 crearon una maravillosa caricatura basada y en la escencia de este icónico personaje.
Este libro está basado justamente en la serie del 2010 la cual fue de mis caricaturas favoritas. Está en un hermoso formato de historieta, en dónde cada libro es un capítulo de la serie.
Sus ilusiones son bellísimas y son libros muy ligeros pero totalmente disfrutables para todas las edades.

While I like the idea of the Little Prince using his stardust and drawing powers to explore further worlds, this graphic novel lacks the thoughtful philosophy of the original work that gives it such broad appeal. It's an adventure in an interesting science fiction world, and with any other name I would have enjoyed it very much, but in attempting to turn a beloved work into a franchise, this comic falls short.

Apparently this is based on a TV show which I've never seen. I borrowed this graphic novel because I read the original novel The Little Prince to my kids and I thought they might like this. Unfortunately, it had none of the magic of the original, so I returned it to the library without my kids reading it.
