Originally published in 1995–2004. A comic.

Stark and powerfully drawn, this graphic novel is unlike anything you've ever read – a stunning tale of existential fear and loathing. Documenting a strange plague as it descends on Seattle's teenagers in the mid-1970s, Black Hole transcends its genre by deftly exploring a specific American cultural moment in flux and those who are caught in it. This landmark series by Charles Burns – more than a decade in the making – is collected in its entirety in this striking, affordable softcover edition.
