Auf Feindfahrt

In this taut, historically grounded German comic series from Splitter, writer-artist Dimitri plunges readers into the claustrophobic world of a U-boat crew during World War II. Since its debut in 1991, this single-issue story has carved out a niche for its meticulous period detail and grim, human-scale tension, exploring the moral and physical pressures of life beneath the waves. It stands as a focused, standalone work from a creator who both writes and illustrates, offering a concise but resonant glimpse into naval warfare’s psychological toll.
