Frank Cappa

Manfred Sommer's darkly satirical series, published by Carlsen Comics in Germany, follows the titular Frank Cappa, a washed-up, cynical private eye navigating a seedy, surreal underworld. Spanning just two issues from 1991 to 1992, the series is a European take on hardboiled crime fiction, blending gritty noir with absurdist humor and striking, expressive artwork by Sommer himself. Its brief but potent run stands as a cult artifact of early-90s German comics, showcasing Sommer's distinctive storytelling and visual style.
