120, Rue de la Gare

In this 1996 one-shot from Edition Moderne, Jacques Tardi adapts Léo Malet’s classic Nestor Burma mystery, bringing his signature ligne claire style to a hardboiled Parisian crime tale. Written by Tardi, Kai Wilksen, and Malet himself, it stands as a taut, atmospheric graphic novel that bridges the worlds of French noir and bande dessinée.
