MORE DANIEL CLOWES!

I’ve started a second Tumblr about Clowes. This one will cover items Clowes has used as reference/inspiration in his work and other things that are related. The new Tumblr can be found here:

Stills from the Ghost World film featuring art by Clowes. The second image showing a receipt on the left is not by Clowes but judging by the style I believe the image to the right of that is by Clowes. All other images are by Clowes, as confirmed in the Ghost World: Special Edition book.

Holy smokes, has it really been 20 years since the “Hateball” tour with Peter Bagge & Dan Clowes? Our old pal Devlin Thompson of Bizarro Wuxtry in Athens, GA shares memories and photos of their stop there.

Original art by Daniel Clowes for a page in Eightball #20, along with the finished image. The original art was posted earlier but not the tone/shading overlay, I’d never seen that before. Both pieces of original art come from kochcomicart.com, which I believe had them for sale for $5,300 for at least a year and they seem to have sold only recently, within the last month.

Sketch by Daniel Clowes, via:

The explanation, from that site: “At the San Diego Comic-Con in 2000, I started a new themed sketchbook, called “Canned”.  A week before the convention, I found a rubber stamp of a jar at a craft store, and had an idea.  I would stamp the jar onto each page of a small, bound sketchbook and ask artists to draw something in the jar.  I think you’ll find the results quite fun!”
