X'ed Out (Pantheon Graphic Library)

From the creator of Black Hole: the first volume of an epic masterpiece of graphic fiction in brilliant color.
 
Doug is having a strange night. A weird buzzing noise on the other side of the wall has woken him up, and there, across the room, next to a huge hole torn out of the bricks, sits his beloved cat, Inky. Who died years ago. But who€s nonetheless slinking out through the hole, beckoning Doug to follow.
 
What€s going on?
 
To say any more would spoil the freaky, Burnsian fun, especially because X€ed Out, unlike Black Hole, has not been previously serialized, and every unnervingly meticulous panel will be more tantalizing than the last . . .
 
Drawing inspiration from such diverse influences as Herg© and William Burroughs, Charles Burns has given us a dazzling spectral fever-dream€"and a comic-book masterpiece.
