Le saint

In this French pocket-sized comic series, Simon Templar—the suave, Robin Hood-like adventurer known as "The Saint"—stars in thirteen original adventures published by Les Editions de Poche from 1970 to 1972. With art primarily handled by the Nordic trio of Thord Lindblom, Jordi Penalva, and Rolf Gohs, the series brought a distinctly European, noir-tinged visual style to the classic character. Though short-lived, it stands as a notable international expansion of Leslie Charteris's creation, offering a compact but stylish chapter in the long-running franchise.
