Extra Issues – Fantagraphics #5: Black Hole (1995) & Dementia 21 (2018)

May 16, 2024

A sexually transmitted Zack-sease and De-Charlotte 21 are covering two Fantagraphics releases graphic novels:


– Black Hole (1995) by Charles Burn

24536

– Dementia 21 (2018) by Shintaro Kago



Topics discussed:

– Does the “bug” mean much as a metaphor in Black Hole? Is reading the comic looking for one a mistake?

– Is it possible to talk about a comedy comic without just listing our favorite bits?


Upcoming episodes in our Fantagraphics miniseries:

– Love & Rockets (Gilbert Hernandez)

– Love and Rockets Library Editions:

– Heartbreak Soup

– Human Diastrophism

– Beyond Palomar
