She is ALLURING
She is MYSTERIOUS
She is BANDETTE!
The world’s greatest thief is a costumed teen burglar by the nome d’arte of Bandette! Gleefully plying her skills on either side of the law alongside her network of street urchins, Bandette is a thorn in the side of both Police Inspector Belgique and the criminal underworld. But it’s not all breaking hearts and purloining masterpieces when a rival thief makes a startling discovery. Can even Bandette laugh off a plot against her life?
Written by Paul Tobin with art by Colleen Coover, Bandette received the Eisner Award for Best Digital Comic in 2013, and was listed by YALSA as a Great Graphic Novel For Teens in 2014. It was an Oregon Book Award finalist in 2016 and 2018, and is one of Ezvid Wiki’s 9 Entertaining Comics & Graphic Novels For Young Readers.
Bandette is published first in digital chapters on the cross-platform app Comixology, then compiled in hardcover editions by Dark Horse Comics.
Book One: Presto!

“Panache is as important as anything, both within the confines of the comic and in the way Coover and Tobin work together to create something wonderfully ephemeral.” – Paste
“Paul Tobin and Colleen Coover’s Bandette is something quite special and too uncommon a thing. It is a book born of the desire to bring joy more than anything and it certainly accomplishes that.” – Comics Authority
“Few other comics are full of such charm and joy. Bandette shows how much fun comics can be.” – Comicsgirl
