The power of the pen

In a forgotten club on the outskirts of the universe, the PALM BEACH, an old cleaning lady found a box with curious content. Inside, the were hundreds of shiny metallic books, full of black and white illustrations. And on the cover – in quirky letters – it read:

H-E-R-R-E-N-S-A-H-N-E

The old cleaning lady had heard this word before. In conjunction with excessive art- and comic exhibitions that used to take place in Duesseldorf a long time ago. And this had to be it: The legendary lost issue. HERRENSAHNE # 11!

Also in the box: An old flyer. The paper was cracked, the colors faded ...
