About the series
A brief, two-issue French series from Dargaud (2011–2014), Le Perroquet des Batignolles is a tightly crafted, character-driven story set in the Batignolles neighborhood of Paris. Best known for the work of writer Jacques Tardi and artist Jacques Tardi (who also illustrated), the series explores a mystery involving a parrot, blending Tardi’s signature gritty, historical detail with a touch of whimsy. Its concise run makes it a focused, atmospheric gem in Tardi’s body of work.
