A fanzine written in German by Klaus Unbehaun and published in late 1955. This appears to have been the first German fanzines written by an individual (as opposed to a clubzine.)

In Andromeda #2:

Besides ANDROmeda, merely one more in German language: YKS! (SKY turned around), edited by our member Klaus Unbehaun... Quite evidently a science fiction fanzine - thank space! It costs 30 Pfennige, and it's certainly worth the money. YKS features interesting articles, letters  to the editor, and reviews of current books, essays on science fiction,  and even excellent illustrations. By his venture, Mr. Unbehaun has shown remarkable courage, demonstrating how an individual may participate in disseminating knowledge about sf.
