ArtistHyperrealstic Vibrant Colours, a comix-style whimsical adventure-story cartoon strip, with six frames titled "Oh Vienna!" In bold semi-3d in 1981 New Wave Electronic Synth style text. The comic strip features Midge Ure (as Lead singer of Ultravox) in 1981 Long New Romantic style trenchcoat and singing about his lost love in the iconic atmospheric City of Vienna. Each frame is appropriately sequential and captioned We walked in the cold air, freezing breath on a window pane, lying and waiting. A man in the dark in a picture frame, so mystic and soulful. The feeling has gone, only you and I. It means nothing to me. The music is weaving. Haunting notes, pizzicato strings the rhythm is calling. Alone in the night as the daylight brings a cool empty silence... The image has gone, only you and I. This means nothing to me. Oh, Vienna! A detailed whimsical retro comic strip in the style of VIZ Magazine & Drew Struzan & Mike Ploog.

Panel 2: A man in a trench coat with a serious expression looks to his right. Behind him is a dark, ornate room with two lit candles and a framed portrait of another man in a suit and tie on the wall.
Text: "A man in the dark in a picture frame, so mystic and soulful."
Panel 3: A man in a trench coat stands in front of a grand, gothic cathedral at night under a starry sky. A faint, ghostly image of a woman in a coat stands beside him, looking forward with a neutral expression.
Text: "The feeling has gone, only you and I. It means nothing to me."
Panel 4: A man sings passionately, his mouth open,
