Seth's Clyde Fans: "That Woman"

Back in 2013, Seth was working through Part 4 of Clyde Fans, continuing to publish installments of his magnum opus in Palookaville, by then his hardcover comics magazine. A page of preliminary art depicts the disillusioned salesman-turned-business owner Abe Matchcard avoiding his wife Vera—"that woman"—who is waiting for him to open the front door for her. It was sold on eBay in 2016. The finished art appeared on page 44 of Palookaville 21 and eventually on page 333 of the complete five-part "picture novel" published in 2019. Comparing the rough with the finished page gives some insight into Seth's working technique.
