The format is six panels per page. Each page is it's own vignette. The vignettes build on each other, but also stand alone. I enjoyed this lovable curmudgeon, but it did get a little repetitive. At 77 pages it was easy to read in one sitting.

Every page depressing, almost every page made me laugh out loud in the coffee shop. Genius.

Excellent. Clowes always amazes me with his ability to portray huge, sweeping issues about being human in a few words and this book is a really great example of that.

Short vignettes that give you great insight into the character of an amusingly unlikable Wilson. Definitely one I'd like to read again.

Wilson is kind of an anti-Ziggy, similar to Ruben Bolling's Super Fun Pak character "Dinkle, the UNlovable Loser", but with somewhat of a story arc. I found Wilson himself to be a departure from other Clowes main characters (lacking super powers, having more words), but Wilson the book explores many similar themes such as obsession, love, fate, and jerks.

I didn’t know this was the guy who did Ghost World until after I was done, which made the wickedness of so much of this quick graphic novel that much better. If you like Clowes and his work, it’s worth picking up.
