Sisco

In the gritty, near-future world of Sisco, a disgraced French special forces operative returns to his violent past after a mission gone wrong, navigating the criminal underbelly. Published by Le Lombard since 2010, this 12-issue series is defined by the taut scripting of Benec and Pieter van Oudheusden, brought to life through Thomas Legrain’s stark, cinematic artwork. A standout in European crime comics, it matters for its unflinching, character-driven take on the action-thriller genre.
