It's a magical world, Hobbes, ol' buddy... let's go exploring!There was big news in the comics world this week when we learned that the reclusive Bill Watterson, author of the beloved Calvin and Hobbes cartoon who has been retired for almost 20 years, has been quietly collaborating on a new comic strip, Pearls Before Swine.Calvin and Hobbes ended in 1995, and for those who were born after that, I think it's hard to convey how much loss was felt when Watterson stopped drawing. I mean, I felt genuine loss. I LOVED Calvin and Hobbes and I read it in the paper
One of those seminal touchstones from my childhood that I still connect with today. Anytime I read this it automatically makes me happy!!! This series had a lot of influence on me, in various ways (it took me many years to realize this btw). I love the art, wit, humor, devious wryness, cultural critique, imagination, humanism slyly mixed with cynicism, the whimsy. Watterson merges a beautifully skilled visual style with brilliant comedic timing and writing. Apogee of the comic strip here imo. An
I remembered having read this comic in a German newspaper when I was little. THAT'S how famous Calvin and Hobbes was/is!Then I noticed that I unconsciously still knew a lot of lines from back then so I started looking into collections and fell in love with the cute artwork and deep messages all over again so I had to buy the complete edition.This box consists of 4 books: the first has all the comics from 1985-1986; the second those from 1987-1989; the third those from 1990-1992; and the fourth
Paul gave me this for Christmas...I think in 2015, but maybe it was 2014 - a conundrum which shows my fluid and slippery relationship with time...and it was one of the best gifts I've ever been given. I already had most of the previously published collections, but this made my life complete. If I could take only one book with me to a desert island (I don't know why this scenario would even occur) then it would be this one. Bill Watterson, I love you!
Me and my sister, who is the coolest sister ever, got this for each other for Channukah one year. I mean, we didn't buy two; we split one copy to share, because we grew up on Calvin & Hobbes, and we even still communicate in Calvin & Hobbes sometimes, where one of us will describe the first panel of a strip, and the other will answer with a description of the last panel. The one about the smocks (where they're supposed to be sculpting and Hobbes gets obsessed with the smock and the last
I finished this some time ago, but I wanted to mark it here as one of the highlights of the year. I consider Calvin and Hobbes my dear friends and I hope they are still having fun someplace with a lot of snow. I don't have a kid of my own, but if I did, I would surely buy this for his shelves (I borrowed mine from the Library)
