Adolphus Claar #[nn]
"Rückkehr vom Mars" delivers a sharp, offbeat sci-fi vignette in the quirky world of Adolphus Claar, where a failing waste compaction plant spirals into chaos as rusted robots and a striking maintenance crew clash over insufficient power. Written by Yves Chaland and Bernd Leibowitz, with art, inks, and colors by Chaland and Isabelle Beaumenay-Joannet, the story unfolds with dry humor and meticulous detail. The cover by Yves Chaland captures the mechanical melancholy of the scene, a 9.80 DEM comic from 1986 that stands out for its distinctive visual tone.
