Baby's in Black

A tender and melancholic graphic novel from SelfMadeHero, Baby's in Black (2011–present) explores the quiet aftermath of a lost love through the lens of a Hamburg nightclub scene. Written and illustrated by Arne Bellstorf, this single-issue work is a fictionalized account inspired by the early days of The Beatles, focusing on Astrid Kirchherr and Stuart Sutcliffe. Its intimate, black-and-white art captures the bittersweet ache of youth and creativity, making it a poignant footnote in the band's sprawling mythology.
