The Complete Eightball (Issue Numbers 1-18) #[nn]

This massive hardcover collects the first 18 issues of Daniel Clowes' seminal comic series Eightball, originally published between 1989 and 1997. It includes early, formative works like Like a Velvet Glove Cast in Iron and the debut of Ghost World, showcasing Clowes' evolution from underground comix absurdity to his signature melancholic, character-driven storytelling. A cornerstone of alternative comics, this volume captures the raw, experimental energy that defined a generation of independent cartooning.
