Kapitän Starbuck

In this short-lived German series from Carlsen Comics, a spacefaring adventurer named Kapitän Starbuck navigates a whimsical, slightly absurd sci-fi universe. Written by Klaus Jöken and illustrated by Philippe Foerster, the three-issue run blends lighthearted humor with retro-futuristic charm. Foerster’s distinctive, cartoonish art style gives the series a playful, European comic-book feel that stands apart from more serious space operas. Though brief, Kapitän Starbuck offers a quirky, self-contained glimpse into early-90s German comics.
