Rückkehr vom Planet der Schweine

Gilbert Shelton’s Rückkehr vom Planet der Schweine is a one-shot comic from 1993, published by Rotbuch Verlag, that brings the artist’s signature satirical and countercultural sensibility to a standalone story. Shelton, best known for his underground comix work, delivers a single-issue tale that stands as a distinct, self-contained entry in his oeuvre. Its brief run captures a moment in the early 1990s when European publishers like Rotbuch brought Shelton’s irreverent humor to a German-speaking audience.
