Patrouille

In the late 1960s, the French publisher Edi-Europ launched Patrouille, a short-lived but distinctive comic series spanning 13 issues. This anthology title blended war stories and adventure, showcasing the work of European artists and writers who brought a gritty, kinetic energy to its pages. While it never achieved the longevity of its peers, Patrouille remains a fascinating snapshot of the era’s continental comic scene, capturing a transitional moment between classic ligne claire and the more modern, action-driven narratives that would follow.
