Universum der Wunder #4

The fourth volume in Carlsen Comics' German-language "Universum der Wunder" series brings together the creative vision of Moebius — whose linework graces both the interiors and the cover — alongside a script co-written by Stan Lee and Karlheinz Borchert, with lettering by Dirk Rehm. "Parabel" promises the kind of philosophical, visually inventive storytelling that made Moebius one of the most distinctive voices in European comics, and this 1991 edition presents it in an accessible German-language format. A fine addition to any shelf dedicated to the meeting point of American and Franco-Belgian comics traditions.
