Clowes's graphic novel almost decides to settle on a narrative idea, but is mostly a rambling and mean-spirited series of hopelessness and downward punching sold as comedy or satire. The film, also by Clowes, repairs much of this.

Clowes's original graphic novel is a harsh and cynical "satire" that seems to withhold its ironic distance; the film by Clowes is, at least, an improvement in tone (and performance).

"The dark tale that results is a thrilling read. Clowes’s refusal to commit to a single narrative style or version of the truth means that this is not a book you finish with a happy sense of closure. Rather, it nags at you to flick through the pages one more time, heading down rabbit holes of your own as you find a new clue or spot another immersive pastiche, and realise that this rich, clever work has shifted its shape once again."

I finished #DanielClowes' #MONICA #Fantagraphics the other night. After a few days of thinking about it, I'm now reading some reviews to get other takes on it.

"We are, each of us, products of the past that bore us, a past that lingers at the edge of perception the way a comics panel we just read does, peripherally shaping our sense of the one we are now reading. The trouble with origin stories is that they are maps, which is why we keep reworking them, hoping that we might finally find our way to someplace new, or at least someplace where we can start again."

Aha. Ich rechne aber damit, dass das wie beim Complete Eightball storniert wird und ich es dann teurer „erneut“ kaufen darf. #DanielClowes

Heute soll das neue Buch »Monica« von #DanielClowes erscheinen. Ich habe bereits im März die englische Originalausgabe vorbestellt, aber Amazon macht irgendwie keine Anstalten das zu versenden. Hm...

New #email! This one's got links a-plenty from #WarrenEllis #SebastianSmee #FredKaplan #MarkDery #DanielClowes & others, + a #karaoke update from Cartoon Crossroads Columbus (#CXC), my current reading, hotel workouts, & more, so GO READ! https://vmspod.substack.com/p/hitting-the-links-10123

Gut, dass das oben drüber steht, sonst hätte ich es gerade nochmal vorbestellt. #DanielClowes

Mail Call- Dan Clowes' Lloyd Llewellyn #s 1-5 finally find their way to my collection all the way from Winnipeg! And also the great new fanzine of fine comic book insight from Colin Blanchette. (see https://youtu.be/UpvF5NMbPFE )

Watched Ghost World last night for the first time in probably 20+ years. I'd forgotten how great that movie is and its statements on music, culture, and alienation are just as spot-on today as they were when it came out toward the end of the pre-cell phone era of 2001. If you've never seen it, watch it. And if you have teenagers, have 'em watch it with you!

Day 9 of my #comicbook room and #comicart tour! #DanielClowes! I got this sketch the Alternative Press Expo (#APE) in 2008. Currently, I'm trying to see if I can complete my collection of #Eightball, which was just collected in a single trade: https://www.fantagraphics.com/products/the-complete-eightball-1-18-reprint

#Eightball by #danielclowes just got reprinted in a single volume! It's my favourite comic and I'm going to be re-reading it. It's a wild, vulgar, hilarious compilation of social commentary. While I re-read it I think I'll slowly post a thread here trying to shine some light on why it's so great. #altcomix #comics
