In article number 1401660, Tim‐Patrick Fellinger and co‐workers show that it is possible to make highly active and cheap catalysts using an easy‐to‐do recipe. The cover image illustrates that rain splits at the interface of gemstones and carbonized paper. This indicates the symbiotic interaction of nickel oxide nanoparticles and nitrogen‐doped carbon, which leads to a bifunctional water‐splitting electrocatalyst.
