Mike Hinge – The Leaves of Time

A psychedelic Mike Hinge book cover produced for Neal Barret Jr’s 1971 Novel “The Leaves of Time”.

I love the work of New Zealand born Mike Hinge and have featured his work three times before, and I’m also lucky enough to own a copy his uber rare portfolio book ‘The Mike Hinge Experience’ and I’ll post some more from that soon.

There’s a little more on the life of Mike here at Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Hinge

This Image comes via Flickr User via Flickr User mystique123_2000 who actually trades in vintage & rare books (cool!). See more of her SF collection here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mystique123_2000/

Addendum: Also of considerable interest the porporbooksblog has scans of the July 1979 Heavy Metal Magazine, which features the Mike Hinge & Neal Adams illustrated story (Scroll down the page) http://theporporbooksblog.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html

  1. For what it’s worth, I’ve posted a striking Neal Adams / Mike Hinge comic, “….Rears Its Ugly Green Head”, from the July 1979 issue of ‘Heavy Metal’ at my PorPor Books Blog:

  3. hey tarbandu,

    I recognise some of those Mike Hinge images from “The Mike Hinge Experience” that dates from 1973 so I believed – perhaps it’s later then? I’ll have to dig it out …. in the meantime I’ll add a link in to your post…

    Cheers
