Schwermetall präsentiert #68

Two grizzled, battle-hardened figures dominate this 1994 cover — Burton & Cyb, billed as "zwei galaktische Schlitzohren" (two galactic rogues) — rendered with gritty confidence by José Ortiz, whose linework gives both characters a lived-in, no-nonsense presence. The bold graphic design makes it immediately clear this is science-fiction with attitude, framing "Der galaktische Coup" as the kind of interstellar adventure that doesn't take itself too seriously. A fine entry in the Schwermetall präsentiert series for fans of European comics with sharp art and sharper characters.
