Ghost World by Daniel Clowes

3.0

I love the entire premise of Ghost World, the two main characters, their fed-up anti-attitudes and their questionable friendship. However, I've only ever seen the movie up until now.
I did like this original graphic novel, however; perhaps because of the rich world the movie and its soundtrack built up in my head, I couldn't enjoy this quite as much.
Sometimes the language and themes in general were too harsh for me, not in a quirky, but in a deregatory or "too-serious" way. I didn't appreciate the way gay people were used as a joke.
The drawings were great! I love the way Clowes uses green to accentuate.
