May 1980 · Egmont Ehapa · 1,70 DEM
“Kontakt mit dem Jenseits?”

In "Kontakt mit dem Jenseits?", Roter Blitz and Melanie face off against Clive Yorkin in a climactic showdown that ends with Yorkin buried beneath rubble and Iris’s murder seemingly avenged—yet Frank Curtis’s new evidence casts doubt on Yorkin’s guilt. Written by Cary Bates and illustrated by Don Heck, with inks by Frank Chiaramonte and colors by Gene D'Angelo, this 1980 issue delivers a tense, unresolved twist that lingers long after the final panel. The cover, by Dick Giordano, captures the moment’s intensity with stark, dramatic lines.
