Caricature (Daniel Clowes collection)

Caricature (Daniel Clowes collection)

"Caricature" is a book collection of nine comic short stories by Daniel Clowes. In contrast to earlier Clowes collections such as "Lout Rampage!" and "Orgy Bound", "Caricature" concentrates on the more naturalistic, character-focused side of Clowes's output displayed in "Ghost World". It includes some of his most admired short stories, including "Immortal, Invisible", "Gynecology" and the title story. All the material in the collection originally appeared in Clowes's comic book "Eightball" with the exception of "Green Eyeliner", which was published in "Esquire".

"Caricature" was first published by Fantagraphics Books in 1998 in a deluxe hardcover edition. A less expensive paperback version was released in 2002. Both editions contain a mixture of full-color and black-and-white material.
