Scène de crime

A French crime anthology series launched by Semic S.A. in 2003, Scène de crime delivers a single, self-contained issue of hardboiled detective fiction. The series stands as a compact, atmospheric entry in European crime comics, offering a standalone story that captures the genre's tension without committing to a longer run. It matters as a snapshot of early-2000s French comics publishing, where genre experimentation met the format of the one-shot.
