About the series
In the gritty, neon-lit underworld of Los Angeles, Blue Estate (2011–2013) is a hard-boiled crime saga from French publisher Ankama, told across four taut issues. Written by Viktor Kalvachev with art by a rotating team including Toby Cypress, Nathan Fox, and Kako, the series follows a disgraced former boxer and a crooked cop entangled in a web of murder, corruption, and a missing ransom. Its cinematic, pulp-style storytelling and stark, expressive visuals carve a distinct niche in modern noir, offering a lean, visceral thrill ride that stands out for its European sensibility applied to American crime tropes.
