✦ Synopsis
Supramolecular ribbons are formed by the self‐assembly of dendron–rod–coil (DRC) triblock molecules. In their Full Paper on page 7313 ff., S. I. Stupp et al. describe the properties and structural characterization of such molecules. The study provides mechanistic insights and unveils general strategies to create well‐defined one‐dimensional supramolecular objects.

An octanuclear cluster cation assembled from eight Cu^2+^ ions, ten OH^−^ ions and twelve neutral monodentate __n__‐propylamine moieties is depicted on the cover. Remarkably, this discrete cluster does not contain multidentate ligands to limit its further aggregation. Instead, its controllable forma
