Spécial DC

Published by Semic S.A. from 1997 to 2005, Spécial DC was a 24-issue French anthology series that showcased a rotating roster of DC icons, including Batman, Green Lantern, the Flash, and Green Arrow. Under the steady editorial hand of writers like Nicole Duclos and Jérôme Wicky, the title featured a diverse array of artistic talent, from the iconic Carmine Infantino to the painterly Alex Ross and the detailed Phil Jimenez. While Paul Dini contributed stories, the series served as a vital bridge between American DC comics and French readers, offering a curated mix of adventures centered on Bruce Wayne, Robin, and the wider superhero community. It remains a distinctive artifact of the late-90s/early-2000s European comics landscape.
