About the series

From 1961 to 1967, Éditions des Remparts published Banga, a 63-issue series that stands as a lively, lesser-known entry in the European adventure-comic tradition. Most frequently illustrated by Lino Brazzi, the strip follows the exploits of its titular hero through a blend of exotic locales and swashbuckling action, typical of the era's pulp-inspired serials. While not a household name, Banga represents the robust, mid-century French-Italian comic market, offering a glimpse into the period's appetite for rugged, globe-trotting protagonists. Its run captures a moment when small publishers like Remparts kept the adventure genre alive for dedicated readers.
