Zitat:
Helmut Nickel always managed to instill into his comics a sense of historic reality and reliability. His heroes, although quite adventuresome, were never musclebound, and his pen-and-ink artwork always stood out because of his intrinsic elegance. (...) What made Nickel's comics special were a dose of wry humor and a tendency toward caricature, especially in supporting characters.
