About the series
In this compact three-issue series from Casterman (2000–2003), private eye Scapola navigates a moody, European crime landscape. The strip is a tightly-wrought detective saga, notable for its atmospheric art and the focused, self-contained storytelling typical of a short-run European album. It matters as a polished example of the bande dessinée noir tradition, offering a complete, satisfying mystery in a brief arc.
