50 Years of D-Gruppe....Well, it was the 50th in 2019!

From the Black Tower blog:

Last year, 2019 (as though we could forget it is currently 2020!!), saw 50 years since I created the German super hero team D-Gruppe while living in Dalborn (between Lemgo and Detmold), Westphalia.  I was reminded that I created Deutsche Michael after seeing an antique recruitment poster in Detmold.  In England we have John Bull as representing the typical Englishman and Der Deutsche Michel ("Michael the German") is a figure representing the national character of the German people.

Friedrich Reusch's "Der Deutsche Michel" erected in 1924 but destroyed during the 1939-1945 "Misunderstandings".

I had intended to do a 50th anniversary special or event. Things got in the way. Although the team feature in The Trial in Black Tower Super Heroes some of the members plus others apprear in The Green Skies. The head of D-Gruppe, Kalus Von Happe aka Kopfmann, along with other members vanished while chasing a UFO in the pages of Return of the Gods. And D-Gruppe: Lost In Space should have been finished about five years ago! There are some rough pages so its something I want to complete in 2020.

The predicted "Days of Darkness"/"Days of Terror" has also to be dealt with and there are hints in Part 3 of Green Skies to it beginning.

If I can finish off the projects I currently have I may well devote all of 2021 to D-Gruppe only. Having a German (paying) publisher would be nice but what the heck! Earning some money might be nice before I die 😂😂😂😂

I will keep you all updated on anything happening.
