Meaning of the name "Eightball"
'An eightball is also "street lingo" for an eighth of an ounce of cocaine, an increasingly popular dosage.'


 * Does anyone have evidence of this and how is it relevant to this article? --Belteshezzar 20:01, 31 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Eight ball (disambiguation) contains that information, and Eightball redirects there. It is not relevant to this article unless there is evidence from reliable sources that the author and/or the publisher were referring to drugs rather than, say, the pool/billiards game or the magic 8-ball when naming the magazine. --Bwiki 01:50, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

"Notable story arches" in Eightball?
Lloyd Llewellyn was the late-1980s comic book series by Clowes that preceded Eightball. The (incomplete) list of Eightball issues at Fantagraphics Books' website shows that Eightball #1, #4 and possibly other issues contained Lloyd Llewellyn stories, but I am not sure if his adventures constitute a "notable story arch" within the series. As for the long title The Adventures of Lloyd Llewellyn, the only Google hits I got were HTML page titles at the Traffaz Archives and, of course, this very article and mirrored/forked versions of it. Therefore, I deleted the long title from the list of "notable story arches". Please re-insert Lloyd Llewellyn if I am wrong, but only use the long title if you have checked that it is consistently used in Eightball. --Bwiki 02:29, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
