That series has not yet materialized and The Fall is the last independent comic book work by Brubaker to date. In 2004 IDW Publishing announced that Brubaker and artist Sean Phillips would collaborate on a creator owned pirate series titled Black Sails for them. The story involved a convenience store clerk who gets involved in a ten-year-old murder mystery after he uses a stolen credit card. This work had previously been anthologized in five parts in Dark Horse Presents in 1998. The Fall, a graphic novel that was written by Brubaker and illustrated by Berlin creator Jason Lutes was published by Drawn and Quarterly in 2001. Detour was nevertheless nominated for the "Best New Series" Eisner in 1997. His other work for Alternative Comics, the humorous and experimental Detour #1, was to be the first issue of a series, though only one issue was ever published. The comic was a 1997 Ignatz Award nominee for Outstanding Graphic Novel or Collection. In the one-off At the Seams, a romantic triangle is explored through three stories which each depict a different participant’s point-of-view. In 1997, he began to publish his cartoonist work through the small press publisher Alternative Comics. Among those contributions was the three part serial "An Accidental Death" ( Dark Horse Presents #65-67), a collaboration with artist Eric Shanower, which garnered the two a 1993 Eisner Award nomination.
In 1991, he began contributing to the Dark Horse Comics anthology series Dark Horse Presents, a comic he would continue to contribute to intermittently throughout the decade. At Caliber, he briefly edited the anthology series Monkey Wrench.
for Slave Labor Graphics, and the semi-autobiographical series Lowlife for Slave Labor and later Caliber Comics.
