Black Eye Productions (also called
Black Eye Books) was a short-lived but influential
Canadian comic book publishing company founded by Michel Vrana. Under the auspices of Vrana, Black Eye was known as a publisher of artfully designed
alternative comics and
graphic novels, most of whose cartoonists have gone on to successful careers with fellow Canadian publisher
Drawn and Quarterly. Vrana still acts as Drawn and Quarterly's exclusive outside design consultant.
