From the Publisher

Daniel Clowes began his career as an “alternative” cartoonist in 1985 with the short-lived comic book series Lloyd Llewellyn. In 1989, he created the seminal comic book series, Eightball. The first among many stories to gain notice were the darkly comic Like a Velvet Glove Cast in Iron and his savage take on the comics industry, Pussey!. These were followed in the mid-’90s by the breakthrough hit Ghost World, the dark, complex magnum opus, David Boring, and an acclaimed short story collection, Caricature. The film adaptation of Ghost World was released to wide acclaim, earning an Academy Award nomination for Best Adapted Screenplay. Clowes’s work has appeared in The New Yorker, Time, Newsweek and many other magazines and he is the winner of multiple Harvey, Eisner and Ignatz Awards as well as the PEN Literary Award for Graphic Literature in 2011. His most recent books include, the time travel thriller Patience, his deluxe Fantagraphics Studio Edition collection, Original Art: Daniel Clowes, and the new paperback edition of The Complete Eightball.
