Character dictates story in the best way...By Norman LascaWilson is Clowes working in a new format and doing so beautifully. The story is told one page at a time, utilizing different inking and coloring styles (meaning that Wilson is not rendered in one consistent and immediately recognizable style, and yet is always recognizable). And while there certainly is a story, Clowes' focus is on what I think he does best. Namely, he reveals deeply familiar aspects of American (and human) character - through attention to illustrative detail, coupled with amazing dialogue - that are immediately familiar and virtually never discussed. He shows us who we are, with all our flaws, and yet somehow does not leave the reader/viewer despising his character. (At least in this case, and at least for me.)Buy this book and spend some time with it. Really.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Satisfying ReadBy Christian FloresThis is a refreshingly human book that satisfies the eyes as well as the mind. The conceit of one page story vignettes to move the larger story along is really cool and as a cartoonist, I enjoy how Clowes switches through different styles to accentuate mood or to be more comical. There are so many themes and emotions that Wilson explores and in the end, you identify with and feel his experience. It's right up there with my Will Eisner collection as story and art.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great read. Looking forward to the movieBy james ConveryGreat read . Looking forward to the movie. Now a feature film with Woody Harrelson and Laura DernA new paperback edition of the modern classic timed to the release of the Alexander Paynendash;produced film version. Meet Wilson, an opinionated middle-aged loner who loves his dog and quite possibly no one else. In an ongoing quest to find human connection, he badgers friend and stranger alike into a series of one-sided conversations, punctuating his own lofty discursions with a brutally honest, self-negating sense of humor. After his father dies, Wilson, now irrevocably alone, sets out to find his ex-wife with the hope of rekindling their long-dead relationship, and discovers he has a teenage daughter, born after the marriage ended and given up for adoption. Wilson eventually forces all three to reconnect as a family--a doomed mission that will surely, inevitably backfire.Daniel Clowes, one of the leading cartoonists of our time creates a thoroughly engaging, complex, and fascinating portrait of the modern egoist--outspoken and oblivious to the world around him. Working in a single-page gag format and drawing in a spectrum of styles, the cartoonist of Ghost World, Ice Haven, and The Death-Ray gives us Wilson, his funniest and most deeply affecting novel to date.

  • 1 Daniel Clowes (1961- ) Is a Highly
    Integrity of the Page: The Creative Process of Daniel Clowes Daniel Clowes (1961- ) is a highly-regarded cartoonist, graphic novelist, and screenwriter. He is best known for his Eightball comic book series (1989-2004) and for his graphic novels Ghost World (1997), Ice Haven (2005), Wilson (2010), Mister Wonderful (2011), and The Death-Ray (2011). The Special Collections Research Center acquired Clowes’ archive in 2015. The acquisition honors Clowes’ personal ties to the University of Chicago – Clowes was born in Chicago and spent much of his childhood in Hyde Park where he attended the University of Chicago Laboratory School until 1979. His grandfather, James Lea Cate (1899-1981), was a history professor at the University of Chicago from 1930 to 1969, and Dr. Cate’s personal papers reside in the Special Collections Research Center. Clowes’ archive also anchors a growing collection of Chicago-related contemporary comics at the Library. The collection supports a burgeoning, cross-disciplinary interest in comics for research and teaching at the University. The Clowes archive contains notes, outlines, narrative drafts, character sketches, draft layouts, and more for three of Clowes’ books: Ice Haven, Mister Wonderful, and The Death-Ray. The exhibition pieces this material together, tracing the evolution of Clowes’ art from conception to production to publication. The materials on display emphasize the exceptional tangibility of Clowes’ work in an era when art can easily be made, and then unmade, on a computer. Throughout his career, the physicality of his craft has been a vital component of his artistic vision and creative process. Clowes remains dedicated to simple paper, pencil, and ink – to what he calls the “integrity of the page.” Explanatory panels throughout the exhibition are composed of excerpts from interviews with Clowes in which he articulates aspects of his style and technique.

  • This Town. Sameness, Suburbs and Spectrality in Daniel Clowes's Ghost
    Last stop: this town. Sameness, suburbs and spectrality in Daniel Clowes’s Ghost World Giorgio Busi Rizzi Ghost World, first published as a graphic novel by Fantagraphics in 1997, is to date the most famous and successful work by Daniel Clowes1. It recounts a key, yet consistently mundane, moment in the life of two teenagers, Enid Coleslaw and Rebecca Doppelmeier2. It is the summer after the end of high school and the two self-proclaimed witty, cynical, different girls have to confront with the passage their coming of age involves towards an adult life, consider moving to a new town, and face the possible dissolution of their friendship3. 1 The book won the Ignatz Award (1997) and was considered by the mag- azines Times and Paste to be among the ten best graphic novels of all time. 2 Significantly, both names mirror and redouble the identity of the au- thor: Enid Coleslaw is anagram of Daniel Clowes, and Doppelmeier alludes to a pun with doppelgänger that will be explicitly made in the course of the story. Clowes even inserts in the story a third alter ego of himself, a creepy cartoonist called David Clowes. 3 On the first paperback edition’s back cover, Clowes includes a brief syn- opsis: “Ghost World is the story of Enid and Rebecca, teenage friends facing the unwelcome prospect of adulthood and the uncertain future of their com- plicated relationship” (2001). Between, vol. VIII, n. 15 (Maggio/May 2018) Giorgio Busi Rizzi, Last stop: this town Enid and Rebecca live this liminal state in an anonymous 1990s American suburb that Clowes

  • Woody Harrelson, Daniel Clowes, and Our Favorite Films of Sundance 2017 A.A
    Woody Harrelson, Daniel Clowes, and our favorite films of Sundance 2017 A.A. Dowd Wilson (Photo: Sundance) Can a film be both bitterly, bitingly misanthropic and kind of cuddly? Wilson (Grade: B) gives it a good college try. The film is based on the 2010 graphic novel by Daniel Clowes, who helped adapt some of his earlier works into a pair of big-screen comedies, Ghost World and Art School Confidential. With Wilson, he’s again translated one of his prickly studies of modern alienation to the screen, but without Terry Zwigoff—a kindred spirit of despair and bilious humor—behind the camera. Instead, the project has been helmed by Craig Johnson, director of the recent Sundance favorite The Skeleton Twins, and one can often sense it being pulled in divergent directions, toward the acid wit of its creator and toward something a little more charitable, a little more Fox Searchlight-friendly. An uptick in humaneness, and in palatability, was possibly inevitable; behavior that readers can stomach from a drawing, frozen in ink, might be a tougher sell in flesh-and-blood form. Johnson’s strongest move was securing Woody Harrelson for the title role, an incorrigible windbag who lacks social boundaries, a filter between his mind and motor-mouth, and just about anyone willing to put up with him for longer than a few minutes. Harrelson doesn’t shy away from Wilson’s obnoxiousness—this is a guy who plants himself next to strangers on an empty bus, then berates them when they don’t share his anticonformist worldview—but he does sand down some of his edges, lending an oddly likable quality to his gregarious assholery.

    DRAWN & QUARTERLY SPRING 2016 CHESTER BROWN MARY WEPT OVER THE FEET OF JESUS CHESTER BROWN MARY WEPT OVER THE FEET OF JESUS THE IDIOSYNCRATIC MASTER CHESTER BROWN CONTINUES HIS THOUGHTS ON SEX WORK The iconoclastic and bestselling cartoonist of Paying for It: A Comic- Strip Memoir About Being a John returns with a polemical interpreta- tion of the Bible that will be one of the most controversial and talked- about graphic novels of 2016. Mary Wept over the Feet of Jesus is the retelling in comics form of nine biblical stories that present Chester Brown’s fascinating and startling thesis about biblical representations of prostitution. Brown weaves a connecting line between Bathsheba, Ruth, Rahab, Tamar, Mary of Bethany, and the Virgin Mother and reassesses the Christian moral code by examining the cultural impli- cations of the Bible’s representations of sex work. Mary Wept over the Feet of Jesus is a fitting follow-up to Brown’s sui generis graphic memoir Paying for It, which was reviewed twice in the New York Times and hailed by sex workers for Brown’s advocacy for the decriminalization and normalization of prostitution. Brown approaches the Bible as he did the life of Louis Riel, making these stories compellingly readable and utterly pertinent to a modern audience. In classic Chester Brown fashion, he provides extensive handwritten endnotes that delve into the biblical lore that informs Mary Wept Over the Feet of Jesus. praise for chester brown “I regard Paying For It, as simply, or not so simply, the most recent in a series of totally

  • Mister Wonderful Und Die Liebe
    Mister Wonderful und die Liebe Comic | Daniel Clowes: Mister Wonderful ›Mister Wonderful‹ heißt Marshall mit Vornamen und steckt am Ende seiner Midlife-Crisis. Comic-Künstler Daniel Clowes schickt den verschrobenen Kauz zu einem Blind Date – und lässt seine Leser herzklopfend mitfiebern. Von CHRISTIAN NEUBERT Der US-amerikanische Comic-Künstler Daniel Clowes kann gut mit verschrobenen Typen umgehen. Die Hauptfiguren seiner Arbeiten, so unterschiedlich sie auch sind, belegen das allesamt. Egal, ob sie sich als Antiheld in den alptraumhaft-entrückten Comic-Wahnwelten von ›David Boring‹ oder ›Wie ein samtener Handschuh in eisernen Fesseln‹ behaupten, die Vorstädte von ›Ghost World‹ bevölkern, an den ›Todesstrahl‹ geraten oder – siehe ›Wilson‹, dessen Verfilmung nächstes Jahr ins Kino kommt – als egomanisch-dysfunktionale Altersgrantler ihren Mitmenschen auf den Sack gehen. ›Mister Wonderful‹, der nun in deutscher Übersetzung vorliegt, ist so ein Typ wie Wilson, wenngleich auch weniger Arschloch. Genau genommen ist er gar kein Arschloch. Er ist einfach ein Abgehängter, ein Zweifler und Grübler ohne Selbstvertrauen und Perspektiven. Natürlich sind das nicht die besten Voraussetzungen für ein Blind Date. Dabei steht ihm eines unmittelbar bevor. Ohgottohgottohgott … Verloren Beim Blind Date Die Frau, die sich im vorstellt, ist eigentlich viel zu hübsch für einen Loser wie ihn. So denkt er, und so verhält er sich. Ständig stellt er sich und sein Verhalten infrage, grübelt permanent über die richtigen Worte – mit der Konsequenz, nicht mehr zuhören zu können und den Faden zu verlieren. In solchen Situationen gehen ihm gerne mal die inneren Wildpferde durch. Marshall ist nicht nur neurotisch, sondern auch cholerisch. Ein Typ, der Katastrophen nur so anzieht.
