About this title

Synopsis

The fall of the Berlin Wall and the dismantling of the Soviet Empire changed the world, engendered new rivalries and started a new kind of Cold War. From Paris to Moscow, from Berlin to The Hague to New York, mafia hotshots, ex-members of the nomenklatura, powerful financial and industrial organisations, spies from all sides: All of these influential figures are involved in a political and economic warfare, and the stakes are high. Alpha, a CIA agent, fights the endemic greed and corruption-even when he has to fight his own bosses.

About the Author

Mythic has collaborated with the biggest names in Franco-Belgian bande dessinee, such as Yann, Rosinski and Walthery. Following the death of the original scriptwriter, Pascal Renard, in 1996, Mythic took over writing Alpha, from volume three. Youri Jigounov is a Russian graphic artist. He has also illustrated a collection entitled Les Lettres de Krivstov (Le Lombard, 1994). He created Alpha with Pascal Renard, depicting a Russia torn by the power struggle between secret services and the mafia.
