Visual Abuse chronicles two decades of Jim Blanchard’s prolific output within the underground music and zine scenes of the Pacific Northwest. This comprehensive collection showcases his distinctively raw graphic style, featuring flyers, record covers, and illustrations that defined the visual language of the era's punk and alternative subcultures. The volume serves as a vital archival record of DIY design practices and the intersection of independent publishing and music history.
