Charles Burns' drawings have a unique comic style that stand out from others. 'Black Hole' is one of his most famous set of comics. The comics follow a group of mostly middle class teenagers who contract a mysterious sexually transmitted disease known as "the Bug" or "the teen plague", which causes them to develop bizarre unique physical mutations. After researching the comics I found that they are very original, Charles Burns has created a unique comic series and Burns has said that the mutations can be read as a metaphor for adolescence, sexual awakening and the transition into adulthood.
