Slice
Future Shock
While organizing a bookshelf last night, I started leafing through some old Eightball comix. Written and illustrated by Daniel Clowes, Eightball skewers a wide range of high- and low-culture phenomena. Surely, I thought, there must be some reference to pizza somewhere in one of these old issues. I wasn't about to page through twenty-some issues, but, as luck would have it, the second Eightball I picked up had a piece that featured pizza. Click the image above for a larger version.
If you're not familiar with Mr. Clowes's comix, you still might know his work: Ghost World, starring Scarlett Johansson and Thora Birch, is based on a serialized story of the same name that appeared in Eightball.
