A. Terry Hearn was the biggest influencer of my generation, amazing at storytelling and his imagery truly captured unique moments in time that’ll never be replicated! His first book I have probably read over 30 times, cover to cover, since its release nearly 25 years ago, he is the ultimate buzz creator!
