Queenie: De godmother van Harlem

Queenie: De godmother van Harlem (2022–present) is a Dutch-language comic from Concerto Books that reimagines the life of a real historical figure, Queenie, as a powerful underworld matriarch in 1920s Harlem. This single-issue series, written and drawn by a creative team, offers a concise, stylish portrait of a woman navigating crime and community in the Jazz Age. It matters as a fresh, culturally specific take on a lesser-known figure, blending European comics sensibilities with American historical drama.
