Hole Boy
Posted by Derek at 8:18AM

Hole Boy is an incredible use of the web to tell a story in a graphic format. It was drawn back in 1996 by Christian Cosas who also illustrated Behind the Bar, and still stands as one of the most emotionally powerful graphic stories I've ever seen online. It begins: "AT ABOUT MIDNIGHT ON MAY 20, 1996, I woke up crying and screaming after getting only two hours of sleep. I walked over to the kitchen, pulled a knife out of the drawer and ran the flat side of the blade up and down my wrists for about an hour."
