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

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

– Black Hole (1995) by Charles Burn

– 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
