This is the recap page for ''[[ComicBook/JourJ the French comic Jour J]]''.
Volume 1, ''Les Russes sur la Lune !'' (Russians on the Moon!) shows the state of the space race ten years after the crash of the Eagle US moon module in 1969, and the subsequent successful Soviet lunar mission.
Volume 2, ''Paris, Secteur Soviétique'' (Paris, Soviet Sector) takes place in 1951, seven years after the failed D-Day Normandy invasion: The Red Army has made it all the way to Northern France, and Paris is divided between an Anglo-American and a Soviet sectors.
Volumes 3 and 4, ''Septembre Rouge'' (Red September) and ''Octobre Noir'' (Black October) are a two-part story in a setting where the French failed to stop the 1914 German offensive, Paris was taken, and the French government evacuated to Algeria. In Russia, Because of the involvement of French agents, the Bolshevik revolution is aborted, and the Anarchists take over instead.
Volume 5, ''Qui a tué le Président ?'' (Who killed the President?) takes place in 1973, 13 years after UsefulNotes/RichardNixon won the presidential election against John Kennedy and is beginning his fourth term.
Volume 6, ''L'Imagination au pouvoir ?'' (Power to imagination?) also takes place in 1973, but in this timeline the point of divergence is Charles de Gaulle's death at the height of the student uprisings in May 1968. The situation escalates into civil war, and a utopian Paris Commune is set up.
Volume 7, ''Vive l'Empereur !'' is set in 1925. Thanks to a more enduring peace between France and Britain in the Napoleonic era, the French Empire was able to expand throughout Europe and all the way to central Asia.
Additional volumes have subsequently been released, the scenarios portrayed ranging from a world where the Ottoman Empire adopts Leonardo Da Vinci's designs (''Le Lion d'Égypte''), to one where Barrabas was crucified instead of Jesus (''La Secte de Nazareth''), to one where the UsefulNotes/ColdWar went hot during the Cuban Missile Crisis (''Apocalypse sur le Texas'').
