Dead Trees (from The Outsider)

Artist's comment:

"I was pleased with my use of the 'blank canvas' panel. However,  an artist called Frank Miller got the same technique into (more widely circulated) print the very same month.

Reprints and reviews:
Ed Pinsent republished this in his excellent Fast Fiction anthology.

Frank Johnson (no relation) in Aka magazine, wrote the article below:

"In Dead Trees the square, regular panels represent the monotonous regularity of Meursault's life: the pulsebeat is unchanging - boom, boom, boom..."
