Victor Fries

Victor Fries steps into the spotlight through Urban Comics' French-language publishing world, making his catalog debut in the 2018 Free Comic Book Day France release Sketchbook Steampunk, courtesy of creator Kader Chaibi. A Modern Age presence, he's found his way into some genuinely compelling corners of the DC universe as published by Urban Comics, turning up in titles like Absolute Batman, Batman Nocturne, and the festive DC Christmas - 24 histoires pour attendre Noël. With only six catalog appearances, he's a rare find, sharing pages with luminaries like Green Lantern, Flash, Batgirl, Robin, and Barbara Gordon — distinguished company by any measure. For collectors drawn to the French-language side of DC publishing and its unique presentation of familiar characters, Victor Fries in this context is a genuinely intriguing discovery.
