Sternfeuer

A compact six-issue series from Groth, Sternfeuer (1980–1983) is a German science-fiction comic that follows a lone space pilot navigating a richly imagined, often melancholic cosmos. The series is most closely associated with its creator, the writer and artist who crafted both its stark, expressive artwork and its introspective, philosophical narrative. Though brief, Sternfeuer stands as a distinctive European genre work, notable for its atmospheric storytelling and its contemplative take on the classic space-faring adventure.
