Malcolm Max

Peter Mennigen and Ingo Römling’s Malcolm Max (Delcourt, 2020–present) is a German supernatural detective series following the eponymous Victorian-era investigator and his partner, the enigmatic Charisma. Across its initial three-issue run, the series blends gothic horror with historical mysteries, drawing on Römling’s atmospheric, detailed art to evoke a shadowy 19th-century London. It stands out for its methodical, character-driven storytelling in the tradition of classic European bande dessinée.
