About the series
In the world of high-stakes scientific espionage, Gil St André follows the titular French secret agent as he navigates missions blending cutting-edge technology and geopolitical intrigue. Launched by Daedalus in 2011 and ongoing for 15 issues, the series is most notably shaped by writer Jean-Charles Kraehn and artist Sylvain Vallée, whose clean, dynamic storytelling grounds the espionage in a modern European sensibility. It matters as a stylish, character-driven take on the spy genre, offering a continental alternative to the more bombastic Anglo-American tradition.
