Nico

In Nico, a four-issue series from Salleck Publications that ran from 1998 to 2003, writer Eckart Schott and artist Emmanuel Lepage crafted a quiet, introspective tale set in the world of a young boy navigating the complexities of childhood and family. The series is noted for Lepage’s luminous, watercolor-like artwork, which brings a gentle, melancholic beauty to the story’s everyday moments. A thoughtful, European-style comic, Nico stands out for its sensitive, character-driven approach, offering a slice-of-life narrative that resonates with warmth and subtle emotional depth.
