Golden Dogs

In this taut four-issue series from Le Lombard (2014–2015), writer Stephen Desberg and artist Griffo craft a stylish, noir-tinged thriller set in the high-stakes world of professional gambling. The story follows a mysterious figure known as the "Golden Dogs," whose uncanny luck at the tables draws the attention of both casino security and a shadowy syndicate. With Griffo’s sleek, cinematic linework and Desberg’s sharp, twist-laden plotting, this compact run delivers a lean, atmospheric tale of risk, deception, and the price of winning. It stands as a crisp example of European crime comics at their most polished.
