Querschläger

In the hard-boiled German crime series Querschläger (2015–present, Splitter Verlag), a single issue delivers a taut, standalone story of underworld violence and moral compromise. Written by Harald Sachse, Matz, and filmmaker Walter Hill, with gritty artwork by Jef, this debut sets the tone for a noirish, European take on the crime genre. It matters as a lean, atmospheric entry from Splitter Verlag, showcasing a cross-continental creative team that blends cinematic storytelling with stark comic art.
