Lightning Illu was a 1993 founded, weekly magazine from the publisher Inter Publish GmbH . Their circulation was up to 450,000 copies. Their target group were mainly young men. Thematically, it was essentially focused on the representation of undressed women (since 1996 also of men) and the initiation of sexual contacts via cipher or 0900 number. The other categories included tabloid “reports” on people and their fates.

Blitz-Illu was published by Klaus Helbert Verlag in Wiesbaden until 2001 and then moved to the Bauer publishing group . By the end of 2005, the edition of the Blitz-Illu was recorded by the IVW . From 2006 Pabel-Moewig Verlag took over the illustrated magazine, the Hamburg editorial office was closed and the focus was changed towards hardcore . Therefore, it was no longer allowed to be freely offered for sale, but was only available for adults on request.

The Blitz-Illu was often received due to sensational reports in which entire groups of people were defamed, was presented "inappropriately sensational form" and allegedly authentic reports were in reality completely fictitious, complaints of the German Press Council .

Before 2008 the magazine was discontinued.
