CLOSE YOUR EYES, PLAGUE BOY

Charles Burns
Close Your Eyes
Le Dernier Cri, 2001
Edition of 1000
A beautiful distillation of Burns' aesthetic via his interpretations/
copies/appropriations of disparate artworks, mostly comic.

Also from 2001, a self-published two-volume
zine entitled Plague Boy: 80 Self Portraits by Charles Burns.
