SPUK
Two scans courtesy of Andrei Molotiu from the book SPUK (Thesen gegen den Frühling) by Niklaus Rüegg (Edition Fink Zurich Switzerland). The book is made up of Cark Barks’ duck comics without the ducks, just backgrounds. Beautiful work, I wish I could read a copy, but it is expensive/out of print. Something like this really subverts the normal sense of what is figure and what is ground in a comic. (More on that later.)
