The weird thing is you could’ve just reported the teasing of the book, that’s easy enough, but instead you go out of your way to add extra ‘insight’ and that’s where you start piling up on the errors (I’m thinking now not just of the Clowes posts, but my short period of a regular reader here a year back). Twice in the past couple of months I’ve stumbled across this site while searching for Clowes and both times it’s had such errors. And The Complete Eightball is another Fantagraphics book. While not written by Clowes, it was published with his approval, reprinting his work.
In other interviews, Clowes alludes to beginning and abandoning a graphic novel about Hollywood, so this maybe isn’t that but…hey whatever it is, it’s exciting! And only a year to go!Īdditionally, The Daniel Clowes Reader was published by Fantagraphics recently. I’ve done that so many times where somebody will call me up and I’ll mention it one time because I’m excited about it and of course it falls apart and I’m stuck explaining myself for the rest of my life. The minute I say, “Oh, I’m doing this,” then the next day I’ll realize I don’t want to do it and I’ll look like an idiot. I’m kind of working on a bigger, longer book that I don’t want to talk about or it’ll jinx me. In 2011, he alluded to a new longer book: In the intervening years he’s been busy with some Hollywood stuff, a major art retrospective and, of course, the Complete Eightball, which is finally coming out in June, squeeee. Wonderful, his NY Times comic, and The Death-Ray came out in 2011. It’s been way too long since we’ve heard from Dan Clowes, Shia LaBeouf aside, but the pile of what appears to be artwork in the above tweet suggests he hasn’t been idle.Ĭlowes’ last work was Wilson, which came out in 2010.
