BLACK HOLE, by Charles Burns

While I'm excited to see what David Fincher plans to do in the just-announced movie version, the graphic novel has so much going on and so much intensity that distilling it for film will remove some of its potency. Readers can pick whatever allegory suits them but I go with "Don't Give a Dose to the One You Love Most" and take it from there.
