Characters

Lupin's allies (who he sometimes has to rescue) are his aide Grognard, veteran reporter Kelly Kincaid, and cub reporter Max Leblanc. The police, usually represented by Inspector Ganimard and Sergeant Folenfant, try to capture Lupin at every chance. Billionaire industrialist and arms manufacturer H. R. Karst is Lupin's arch-enemy. Karst's assistants are a tough man named Steele, a crafty woman called May Hem and a slightly incompetent called Diesel with a cunning named Gila, a pair of thugs.
