[edit] 20TH CENTURY EIGHTBALL

A collection of short comics depicting the artist's opinions and views on a variety of topics, including people he dislikes and things that annoy him.

Before the Ghost World graphic novel and film propelled Daniel Clowes to international superstardom as the pre-eminent cartoonist of his generation, his ongoing comic book Eightball was already the most talked-about series of the 1990s, renowned for its gleefully incisive social satire and riotous absurdity, Entertainment Weekly proclaimed it 'the year's best regularly published comic book' upon its publication in 1989. The Village Voice hailed it 'brilliant', and Simpsons creator Matt Groening has repeatedly called it his favourite book. 20th CENTURY EIGHTBALL collects the very best humour strips from Eightball, written and drawn between 1988 and 1996. Included here are such seminal rants as I Hate You Deeply, Sexual Frustration, Ugly Giris, Why I Hate Christians, Message to the People of the Future, Paranoid, My Suicide, Chicago, and over three dozen more. With over 40 pages in colour and many of these strips having been out-of-print for years, 20th CENTURY EIGHTBALL is sure to be one of Clowes' most popular books for years to come.
