Chloe

Hans Rickheit's Chloe, a single-issue series from Chrome Fetus Comix launched in 2002, is a stark, surreal descent into a world of grotesque whimsy and psychological unease. Rickheit, serving as both writer and artist, crafts a hauntingly detailed black-and-white landscape where a silent, wide-eyed girl navigates a nightmare of bizarre machinery and decaying environments. This self-contained work stands as a potent, early example of Rickheit's singular vision, offering a concentrated dose of the unsettling, atmospheric storytelling that would define his later, more expansive projects.
