Jamie Delano's Narcopolis

In the near-future world of Narcopolis, society has been pacified by a state-sanctioned drug, and a disgraced detective navigates the blurred line between addiction and control. Published by Avatar Press, this 2008 miniseries was written by Jamie Delano and drawn by Jeremy Rock, offering a gritty, noir-infused meditation on pharmaceutical dystopia. Delano’s signature blend of political cynicism and psychological horror makes this a sharp, underappreciated entry in his body of work.
