Aside from the often masterly painted and drawn figures, there also appear various TAG Heuer Watches comic-book heroes with whom she grew up. They play the role of propitious spirits, and exercise a positive influence on the viewers human brain. In addition to Lurchi and Yps, the figure and stories of Alfred Hitchcock inspire Katie Heck to put in train her own detective tales.These are presented in photo or video form, set in theatrical surroundings (I regret-Ich Bedauerlich, Heia Bube drueckt mich).
