Synopsis
At the beginning of the twentieth century in France, a motorized police brigade was created, led by Divisional Commissioner Faivre. This brigade is inspired by the real "mobile brigades" established in 1907 by Georges Clemenceau (nicknamed "the Tiger"), who was then the Minister of the Interior. Commissioner Valentin, along with inspectors Pujol and Terrasson—officials of the mobile intervention brigade—conduct police investigations involving mystery, the supernatural, and historical figures. The stakes in these investigations often revolve around the protection of the Republic.

The series "De avonturen van Nero en Co" ran between 1947 and 2002. Marc Sleen drew and wrote all stories until 1992, that year he hired Dirk Stallaert as a drawing assistant. Sleen holds the world record of issues of a comic book series title drawn by the same author. In 2002 Stallaert was hired by “Studio Vandersteen” and Marc Sleen decided to end the series.
The comic was first published in the newspaper "De Nieuwe Gids" in 1947 as "De avonturen van detective Van Zwam" ("The adventures of detective Van Zwam"). After eight stories Nero (real name "Schoonpaard", in reprints "Heiremans") became the central character. In 1950 Marc Sleen left "De Nieuwe Gids" and joined the newspaper "Het Volk". At first the comics (3 issues) appeared as "De avonturen van Nero en zijn hoed" ("The Adventures of Nero and his Hat"), from 1951 they were titled as "De avonturen van Nero en Co" ("The adventures of Nero and Co"). In 1965 the series was transfered to the newspaper group "De Standaard/Het Nieuwsblad".
