On the cover of CC senior Ben Philippe’s comic “Beloved,” long, curly locks of red hair fall from the face of an upside-down young woman and ensnare a faceless, suited man. On the inside cover, the reader finds a poem printed in white typeface against a red background. The poem, written by 2010 Columbia alum Liam Carney, is called “As Grows Her Hair, So My Desire.” It is as if the bright design and mysterious content of the cover has the same effect on the reader as the red hair has on the man—and this is exactly what Liam intends.
