I'm leaning towards agreement here.

Yes, I've read several reviews/interviews/essays regarding Ghost World over the past few days... every single one of them make sure to mention this little tidbit. Very clever, and yes, quite revealing.

Yeah, in one interview I read he basically says that Enid will pretty much never fit in no matter where she ends up (Which from what I can tell, is more or less how Mr. Clowes feels as well...constantly struggling with that "Who am I" question), although wherever that may be, it's much more interesting than where Rebecca winds up. Other than that I'm not too concerned either. It's beside the point.

Thanks.
