About the series
Set in an alternate 1950s Berlin, Kai Falke (2008–2016) from Salleck Publications follows the hard-boiled private investigator of the title across 16 issues. Scripted primarily by Eckart Schott and Françoise Hugues, and consistently illustrated by Raymond Reding, the series marries classic noir tropes with a distinctly European sensibility. Its atmospheric, period-specific art and morally complex storytelling made it a standout in modern German-language comics.
