Crimes de papier

Crimes de papier, launched in 2012 by Actes Sud, is a French-language crime comic series that blends noir storytelling with a journalistic, visually striking approach. Though currently consisting of a single issue, the series is notable for its sophisticated, literary sensibility and its exploration of criminal psychology and societal tensions. The creative team, led by writer Olivier Balez and artist Christophe Chabouté, brings a moody, atmospheric style to the genre, making it a distinctive entry in European crime comics.
