Titanic Reeks

In the late 1980s, the independent publisher Titanic Strips launched Titanic Reeks, a 25-issue series that brought together a transatlantic roster of talent including writers Stefano Tamburini, Dave Stevens, and Jan Vervoort, and artists Rubén Pellejero, Tanino Liberatore, and Manfred Sommer. The series is a distinctive artifact of its era, showcasing a blend of European and American comic sensibilities through a variety of stories that reflect the experimental, often gritty edge of alternative comics at the time. Its importance lies in its role as a cross-cultural showcase, capturing a moment when underground and mainstream influences collided in a short-lived but memorable run.
