what with the gary larson topic, i feel its necessary to
pay homage to the other great late 80's/early 90's comic
"Calvin and Hobbes". now someone with image posting
capabilities, post some funny.

I'm obsessed. Calvin and Hobbes is more than a comic

Its great, i have a few "whole" books of C+H, however its
gonna be hard to post them here, as most of the run longways
left to right, as opposed to Far Side which is generally one
rectangle that fits perfectly into xltronic.

agreed.

it's a philosophy (appropriately enough . . .)

it's part of my personal religion

i miss it, but at the same time, i'm glad he didnt drag it
out. it's perfect in every way . . .

definately.

character development was superb. i too also agree that
it's great that waterson ended it on a high note.

i also own 10 C & H books... i'm sure there are several
duplicate strips though.

I don't own Yukon Ho!, but I think that may be the only
major collection that i'm missing.

i have all the books, and my favorite has always been the
lazy sunday book. his sunday strips were the best, really
well drawn and colored.

i think 'the authoritative' is my fave.

his sunday strips were great, mostly because he seemed to
spend more time on the illustration, but i love the
condensed humor in the three celled weekday strips.

remember the series where they found the little opposum and
it ended up dying?.. fucking gut wrenching.

Nice. Yesterday I re-read the original collexion of Calvin +
Hobbes. I've always loved it - I think my family had all the
books between us - I also have a neat C + H tee-shirt, and
downloaded all the collexions in electronic format.

Long Live Spaceman Spiff !
