David Boring #[nn]

"Act One" from David Boring #nn (2000) finds Daniel Clowes delivering a sharp, introspective story through his own writing, art, inking, and lettering—every detail drawn from his singular vision. David wrestles with the weight of his past, caught between a lingering fixation on an old girlfriend and his fragile connection with Dot, while a quiet, persistent yearning for answers about his absent father drives the narrative forward. The cover, also by Clowes, mirrors the story’s moody, personal tone.
