Together with his permanent scenario writer Dodo (Dominique Nicolli), he made various short stories of this series for Métal Hurlant, Rigolo, Best and Rock and Folk. In 1983, Radis and Dodo created 'La Nuit Porte Conseil', the first adventure of the detective Gomina published by Les Humanoïdes Associés in 1983.
