I have gotten very bad at keeping up with those things called "books" -- not just reading (although like a lot of us I'm not doing nearly as much of that as I used to since the internet has fucked up my brain) but keeping abreast of the news of news ones. Hence me just discovering today that my favorite cartoonist alive Charles Burns has a new book out TODAY. It's called Kommix and it's a collection of eight covers of comic books that never were but he wished existed -- this is a very him thing to do. Anyway you can order your copy off of Amazon right this minute -- I would direct you to the publisher Fantagraphics but they're out of stock! Which isn';t too surprising, given I'm hardly the only person who worships at the altar of Mr. Burns. Gahh excited!

I knew it
Love Burns, thanks for the heads up. I'm surprised nobody has tried to adapt Black Hole into a movie yet.
David Fincher was actually attached to a BLACK HOLE movie for a hot minute after it came out! What a shame that never happened.
I would kind of love if it was animated though, like Burns' portion of the 2007 French movie Fear(s) of the Dark was -- seeing his style in motion was mind-blowing.
