About the series
Max Fridman, a suave and weary secret agent, navigated the shadowy corridors of pre-World War II Europe in a series of five meticulously crafted albums from Glénat. Spanning from 1982 to 2008, this Franco-Belgian espionage series is defined by the elegant, detailed art and sophisticated, melancholy storytelling of its creator, Vittorio Giardino. Its significance lies in how it elevated the spy genre in comics, blending historical tension with a noir sensibility that feels both timeless and deeply personal.
