Das Schemen #1
"Schlechte Neuigkeiten" in Das Schemen #1 (1990) delivers a stark, character-driven start to Vic's journey after a near-death experience leaves him with lost memories. Written by Dennis O'Neil and Hajo F. Breuer, with Denys Cowan’s striking art and Rick Magyar’s inks, the story follows Vic’s return to Hub City after a brutal ordeal, guided by Batman’s counsel and shaped by rigorous training under Richard Dragon—only to face a final trial with Shiva. The cover, a haunting piece by Bill Sienkiewicz, captures the mood with its moody, expressive style.
In "Schlechte Neuigkeiten," Vic Sage (Szasz) races against time as his countdown to death intensifies, digging into the corruption of Hub City’s mayor with dangerous consequences. With his investigation exposing deep-seated deceit, every step closer to the truth brings him perilously close to the end.
In "Schmetterling," Vic—once a hero now adrift after a near-fatal attack—wakes with no memory, his past a blank slate. Rebuilt by Batman’s counsel and forged in the disciplines of Richard Dragon, he faces a final trial with Shiva before returning to Hub City, where the shadows of his forgotten life await.
