Rik Ringers

A French-Belgian crime series from Le Lombard that launched in 2015, Rik Ringers follows a disgraced former police inspector turned private eye navigating a gritty, contemporary Brussels. Written primarily by Zidrou and the collective The House of Boom! (with Boom!), and illustrated consistently by Simon Van Liemt, the eight-issue run blends hardboiled detective work with sharp social observation. The series stands out for its moody, atmospheric art and its unflinching look at urban decay and moral compromise.
