Cases from the Files of Sam Pezzo, P.I.

Vittorio Giardino both writes and illustrates this slim, single-issue private-eye mystery published by Catalan Communications in 1988. The series introduces Sam Pezzo, a detective whose case files are rendered in Giardino's crisp, atmospheric style. Though brief, it stands as a compact example of European noir-inflected comics from the late 1980s, showcasing Giardino's gift for moody storytelling.
