Die Haie von Lagos

A taut, self-contained three-issue German comic series from Carlsen Comics, Die Haie von Lagos (1987–1990) is a singular vision by writer-artist Matthias Schultheiss. Set in the gritty underworld of Nigeria's largest city, the story follows a German mercenary caught in a web of corruption and violence. Schultheiss’s stark, expressive artwork and hard-boiled narrative make this a notable European crime thriller of its era.
