Here, you can discuss Bill Waterson's comic strip, Calvin & Hobbes. I have to say, it is my all time favorite comic EVER. Nothing makes me laugh more so than Calvin & Hobbes. Have any of you ever read the comic strip? What do you think of it?

My younger brother has a few of the Calvin and Hobbes books. I've read them and felt sorry for Calvin's mother having to put up with her son's antics. One winter, my brothers attempted to create a crowd of angry snowmen like Calvin did in one of the comics.

Ah yes, snow goons. Deranged-mutant-killer-monster ones at that. Fun stuff.
I absolutely adore Calvin & Hobbes. I've been thinking about getting that big "complete collection" set, just because it's such an awesome series. And also because I'm a completist.

Ah yes. Takes me back to around 5th grade or so when I really started to get into the books.
Nowadays I rarely read them, but the comic was still ahead of its time even by today standards. My favorite collection of strips was "Scientific Progress Goes Boink".

I think my favourite collection of strips is "The Days are Just Packed." I don't have that one yet, and I haven't read all of it yet, but just from skimming through it at my eye doctor's office, it seems to be the wackiest and craziest and funniest ones of them all. EDIT: And now, I've found a strip for you all to read. Enjoy! DISCLAIMER: Calvin & Hobbes belongs to his rightful owner(s).

This comic is my all time favorite strip EVER! I myself do a comic and I like to say it's heavily inspired from Calvin And Hobbes
By the way, Bill Watterson recently did artwork for Pearls Before Swine.
