Go, Read: Dan Clowes At The AV Club

imageDan Clowes is one of the best comics-makers working, and just about any interview with him right now is worth reading. As those who have seen him on tour with Seth, Clowes is generally relaxed, warm and insightful as a commentator on his own work and comics in general. This new piece at The AV Club is by the very comics-smart Noel Murray. That means you get some specific, slightly left-field questions about Clowes' work, like the cartoonist's desire to capture the design aesthetic of the late '70s and early '80s, as well as his thoughts on some broader, geekier, topics, like how he felt about doing comic books for those last few, amazing issues of Eightball as opposed to making them graphic novels from the start.
