Commandant Griffith

Commandant Griffith strides onto the page in Golden City #1 (1999), a creation of writer Daniel Pecqueur and artist Nicolas Malfin published by the French house Delcourt. Part of a compact but intriguing Modern Age run stretching into the early 2000s, Griffith commands attention in a series populated by a vivid cast that includes Harrison Banks, Le Chacal, Apple, Kumiko, and Mifa — colorful company that speaks to Golden City's richly layered world. With only four catalog appearances, this is a character for the dedicated hunter of European genre comics, the kind of discovery that rewards curiosity.
