I like Clowes' recent stuff about how awkward adult dating life has become. Sure the book is a bit short and simple, but any longer would be detrimental. This is not 'fantastic', but it's pretty good, at least enough for me to finish it fast in one sitting. The perceived situation is just bizarre enough to be both interesting and realistic so that the protagonist's monologue is believable and relevant to the reader.

This is sort of what a date feels like.

If you are new to Clowes, pick up Patience or Ghostworld instead.
