SAS

A gritty six-issue miniseries from French publisher Glénat, SAS (2006–2008) adapts the long-running espionage novels by Gérard de Villiers into a taut comic format. Known for its hard-edged, Cold War-era intrigue and globe-trotting action, the series is most associated with the writer and artist team that brought the iconic secret agent Malko Linge to sequential art. It matters as a faithful and stylish translation of a beloved French literary franchise into the comics medium, offering a darker, more mature take on spy fiction.
