Licht #[nn]

From Ballon Media comes this quietly striking 2020 graphic work by Wilbert van der Steen, who handles every creative role himself — writing, art, color, and lettering all flowing from a single vision. The cover sets a tender, contemplative mood: a young blonde boy, surrounded by deep darkness, cradles a small glowing candle in his hands, his wide-eyed expression lit by its warm, intimate light. It's a beautifully simple image that promises a story exploring wonder, vulnerability, and the courage it takes to hold a small flame against the dark.
