Daniel Clowes is an American author, screenwriter and cartoonist. He finished high school at the University of Chicago Laboratory Schools and attended the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York, earning his BFA in 1984. When Daniel was four years old, he had an emotional response to a Strange Adventures comic where a family died of heat. His first professional work was for Cracked, which he worked for from 1985 until 1989. That same year, he began his comic book Eightball, which consisted of short pieces that went from comical rant and Freudian analysis to fairy tale and cultural criticism.

Daniel Clowes’ first graphic novel to be published was Like a Velvet Glove Cast in Iron in 1993. Below is a list of Daniel Clowes’ books in order of when they were originally released:

Daniel Clowes Synopsis: David Boring by Daniel Clowes is about a nineteen-year-old security guard with a tortured inner life and an obsessive nature. When he meets the girl of his dreams, things begin to go awry: what seems too good to be true apparently is. And what seems truest in Boring’s life is that, given the right set of circumstances (in this case, an orgiastic cascade of vengeance, humiliation and murder) the primal nature of humankind will come inexorably to the fore.
