Daniel Clowes is a legend—Ghost World, Eightball, Academy Award nominations for screenwriting. This cover for Patience is peak Clowes: that blonde bob, the haunted expression, and those psychedelic rays bursting outward with different patterns and textures. It's retro but unsettling, pop art meets existential dread. The color palette is deceptively cheerful for what's actually a dark time-travel story about love and loss. Fantagraphics royalty.
