Daniel Clowes’ short story collections draw from his Eightball comic series, which served as the primary venue for his work from 1989 to 2004. The collection #$@&! was published in 2000, gathering shorter pieces that showcase Clowes’ range within the alternative comics format.
The Complete Eightball 1-18 (2015) is a comprehensive collection of the first 18 issues of the series, including material that was later developed into standalone graphic novels. Together, these collections document the evolution of one of alternative comics’ most distinctive voices.
