Skin Deep - Tapa blanda

A master of the unearthly atmosphere--David Lynch has nothing on him ... At once cautionary, creepy and curious, Burns is consistently one of comics' deepest thinkers.--John Seven

Charles Burns is the creator of the landmark horror graphic novel Black Hole, currently in production as a major motion picture directed by David Fincher. Skin Deep is the third (following El Borbah and Big Baby) of a series of three volumes collecting his acclaimed oeuvre up to Black Hole. Skin Deep includes Burns' popular character Dog Boy (a red-blooded all-American boy with the transplanted heart of a dog, featured in shorts on MTV's cult classic Liquid Television show). The book also collects "Burn Again," and "A Marriage Made in Hell." These tales of doomed romance set a tone for the rest of Skin Deep. In addition to the comics, Skin Deep includes several pages of illustrations reprinted from Burns' sketchbooks as well as covers and other pieces from foreign editions of the author's work
