Schiller

In this German graphic novel from Egmont Ehapa, writer and artist Schiller (the creator's sole credited name) crafts a self-contained, noir-tinged mystery set in a shadowy urban landscape. The single 2005 issue introduces a lone detective navigating a web of crime and corruption, distinguished by its moody, atmospheric art and tight, character-driven storytelling. Though brief, the work stands as a striking example of European noir comics from the mid-2000s.
