Duelliste

In this brief but striking two-issue series from Le Lombard, Duelliste (2012–2014) pits a masked vigilante against a corrupt city, blending European graphic storytelling with a noir-tinged, almost operatic sense of justice. Crafted by a creative team known for their atmospheric linework and taut scripting, the series stands as a compact, self-contained exploration of honor and violence in a modern urban landscape. Though short-lived, it remains a distinctive artifact of early-2010s Franco-Belgian comics, offering a focused, visually arresting take on the lone avenger archetype.
