Blacksad [0oEdito0]

The story is set in a film noir environment, in the USA of the late 1950s. All the characters are anthropomorphic animals (female characters are often much more anthropomorphized, though it varies depending on the animal.), their specific species reflecting their personality and their part in the story. For example, nearly all the policemen are canine, usually German Shepherds, Bloodhounds, Foxes or Scottish Terriers.
John Blacksad - The main character, a fairly typical detective story private investigator apart from being a black cat. Part of his stories are flashbacks. He sometimes works as a bodyguard when he is in meager times. He usually wears a dark green suit, a red-and-gold striped tie and a trenchcoat. He uses the alias of John H. Blackmore on several fake IDs (debt collector, FBI agent, and customs officer). He is a WW2 veteran.
Weekly - Blacksad's sort-of sidekick. A brown Least Weasel who doesn't like soap and water and an odour problem (he confesses that his nickname comes from bathing only weekly). He has a near-constant optimistic attitude, working as a muckraker for a tabloid called the What's News. He owns documents of Project Noah, to be published in case of Blacksad's death.
Smirnov - a police commissioner who becomes a fast friend of Blacksad. A brown German Shepherd, Smirnov sometimes helps Blacksad to reach the rich and powerful which he himself cannot touch due to 'pressure upstairs.'
Definitely worth checking out, funny expressions all over the characters, and an amazing violent environment. Mature Content.(Not Porn --).
