This hilarious classic from Dan\nClowes is a brutal and scathing peek into the insular, pathetic world\nof the comic book industry, as seen through the eyes of antihero Dan\nPussey (pronounced \"Pooh-say\"), creator of the smash superhero comic\n\"Nauseator.\" From cradle to grave, Clowes presents the complete saga of\nYoung Dan Pussey, mercilessly skewering the business and medium of\ncomics, bouncing from art to commerce to culture high and low. Clowes\nnot only parodies the superhero genre (notably Stan \"The Man\" Lee), but\nalso his own peers, from his publishers and fellow authors at\nFantagraphics to artistic heavyweights like Art Spiegelman (seen here\nas \"Gummo Bubbleman\"). Through it all, Pussey dreams endlessly about\nhaving sex with a woman, but even those fantasies degenerate into\nsuperhero scenarios.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDaniel Clowes\u003c\/b\u003e is a Harvey, Eisner, Ignatz, and PEN America Literary Award Winner whose comics and graphic novels have been translated into over 20 languages worldwide.
