Many regard Black Hole as one of the greatest graphic novels, and it's not hard to see why. Burns's black-and-white strips are so cool, and his story - sex, drugs and teenage mutants - grips like a vice. -- Rachel Cooke * Observer * Drawn in [Burns’] signature woodblock style, and [is] visually memorising * Stong Word * A bleak but brilliant tale of suburban alienation -- Marc Chacksfield * ShortList * Black Hole just might be the most perfect book going, if not the sexiest... As startling and evocative a work as the medium has ever produced. -- Matt Fraction * Art Bomb * Make no mistake: this is a bleak book that tries desperately in its final frames to introduce a note of optimism in resignation. It's also brilliant. -- Peter Millar * The Times *
