Série 15

Still running today after its 1898 debut, Série 15 is one of the earliest ongoing comic series from French publisher Maison Quantin, spanning 20 issues to date. Associated most closely with the versatile talents of Benjamin Rabier, Malatesta, and Marcel Chatelaine—who each contributed as both writers and artists—the series helped define the look and tone of early French comic strips. Its longevity and pioneering format make it a quiet landmark of European comics history.
