About the series
Based on the historical French criminal-turned-detective Eugène François Vidocq, this short-lived series from Oberon was written and drawn by Dutch artist Hans G. Kresse. Running for just two issues between 1977 and 1980, it offers a compelling, atmospheric glimpse into the early 19th-century underworld through the eyes of its pioneering protagonist. Kresse’s detailed, expressive artwork anchors this obscure but intriguing entry in the European historical comic tradition.
