Charles Burns grew up in Seattle in the 1970s. Hs work rose to prominence in Art Spiegelman’s Raw magazine in the mid-1980s and took off from there, for an extraordinary range of comics and projects, from Iggy Pop album covers to the latest ad campaign for Altoids. In 1992 he designed the set for Mark Morris’s delightful restaging of The Nutcracker (renamed The Hard Nut) at BAM. He’s illustrated covers for Time, The New Yorker, and The New York Times Magazine. He was also tapped as the official cover artist for The Believer magazine at its inception in 2003. Burns lives in Philadelphia with his wife and two daughters.
Suburban Seattle, the mid-1970s. We learn from the out-set that a strange plague has descended upon the area’s teenagers, transmitted by sexual contact. The disease is manifested in any number of ways — from the hideously grotesque to the subtle (and concealable) — but once you’ve got it, that’s it. There’s no turning back.
As we inhabit the heads of several key characters — some kids who have it, some who don’t, some who are about to get it — what unfolds isn’t the expected battle to fight the plague, or bring heightened awareness to it , or even to treat it. What we become witness to instead is a fascinating and eerie portrait of the nature of high school alienation itself — the savagery, the cruelty, the relentless anxiety and ennui, the longing for escape.
And then the murders start.
As hypnotically beautiful as it is horrifying, Black Hole transcends its genre by deftly exploring a specific American cultural moment in flux and the kids who are caught in it- back when it wasn’t exactly cool to be a hippie anymore, but Bowie was still just a little too weird.
To say nothing of sprouting horns and molting your skin…
半天读完了。感觉不会再看第二遍了而且这本书的体积真的很大。整个漫画四星,完全是冲着几近完美的画功。可是我适应不过来那些纯粹丑的东西,疮疤,尾巴,伤口,瘤子,头上长角,说实话让我不舒服。除了几个温馨的情节,大海星空什么的,支撑我看下去的绝对是想知道结果。不堪...

with Beach House's Devotion,so peaceful and all,like floating in the water. "stupid little things that had seemed so important at one time",they just drift away
评分人性的黑洞,欲望的洞。
评分开头惊艳,中间高潮迭起,内心独白与叙事节奏把握的很好,各种梦境,性躁动与毒品,人与人之间的疏离隔阂通过怪病来隐喻,可是结局真的三俗,就因为这三俗的结局,这本书只能止步于“好看”为止了,还是大卫林奇聪明,永远不会告诉你真正的凶手是谁,断片叙事让剧本更有生命力。
