I didn't have sex for weeks after reading this... Neither did I. Although to be fair, I didn't have it for quite a while beforehand, either. |

Im not talking about the stupid old Disney movie. Hush your mouth...that was/is a great film!  Yeah, I knew what Black Hole you were talking about. I was just noting that, having never read it, my only connection to it is that it got in the way of my eBay searches for the old Black Hole movie tie-in comics. That then spawned a side discussion about the old Disney film and its comics. Which is, of course, fine and the kind of thing that happens in this forum all the time. |

I'm sure at least a couple of mrp's links are to me, so I'll just mention that the Disney movie adaptation was originally done as a sunday strip by Jack Kirby.  |

I read the Charles Burns "Black Hole" collection; interesting & disturbing story. Note this was referenced in the excellent 2014 film "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes".

I remember the Movie, but not the Comic Book and I did not know that there was a comic book based on the Black Hole ... Really!

To avoid confusion, note that two different things are being discussed here:
The OP created this thread to discuss the great but disturbing comic series (which was later collected) called Black Hole, by Charles Burns.
Separately, there was an old Disney sci-fi film from the late '70's called Black Hole, which IMHO was nothing more than a glorified Star Wars rip-off. That being said, the BH movie newspaper strip by Jack Kirby (shown above) does look cool; I wasn't aware of this prior to this thread. Like a lot of 1970's/early 1980's comics based on films, it seems like it may be more interesting than the film itself.

We aren't talking about Black Hole Sun? This thread needs a little Soundgarden.

I was referring to that Charles Burns Black Hole collection, not that prison cell located in Calcutta  |

But...but...I thought we were talking about "Supermassive Black Hole" by Muse. What's everyone else talking about?  |
