Alias Ego

In this short-lived 1994–1995 German series from Carlsen Comics, writer/artist Dick Matena, alongside co-writer Harald Sachse, explores the fractured identity of a superhero struggling with a secret life that bleeds into reality. Over just two issues, Alias Ego distills the psychological weight of wearing a mask, delivering a compact, introspective take on the dual-life trope. It stands as a notable, if brief, European meditation on the genre's core themes.
