Costa

In the late 1980s, German publisher Egmont Ehapa released a brief, two-issue comic series titled Costa, a stylish crime thriller written and drawn by Charles Jarry alongside co-writer Peter Daibenzeiher. The series follows a mysterious, resourceful protagonist navigating a shadowy underworld of intrigue and danger, rendered in Jarry's distinctive, atmospheric artwork. Though short-lived, Costa stands out as a compact, self-contained example of European genre storytelling from the period.
