Lindall's book Paradise Lost Illustrated (poetry by John Milton) has been compared to other Milton illustrators including William Blake. According to New York University professor Karen Karbiener, many students prefer Lindall's version, which appeared in Heavy Metal magazine and has a popular following among young people. Professor Karbiener, a Ph.D. in English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University, gave a lecture at the Williamsburg Art & Historical Center in 2004 on "...Milton's Satan and his impact on countercultural artistic movements from William Blake to the Beat poets in essence, the artists 'between' Milton and Lindall, the radical artistic legacy."
