Watterson allegedly (supposedly) lives the life of a recluse not too far from me, in/near Chagrin Falls, Ohio. he's rumored to sometimes give signed C&H books to a local bookstore, and disappear again.

I own every single Calvin & Hobbes released. I absolutely love it so much. I would just open one and get sucked in and not put it down until I was at the back page. Best comic strip ever.....EVER!


This is so great. Calvin all grown up & passes Hobbes down to his little girl. Oh man....the adventure begins....again.

Just a little kid and his imagination running wild. Something the youth of today is sorely lacking. C & H reminds me a lot of my childhood when a day with my dog & a good whopping stick I would find under a tree = a day of wild adventure out in the yard or small canyon & fields across from our house.

Dude who does Ziggy is from somewhere in the Cleveland area, and is a Browns fan of all things. Not a fan of Ziggy, but anyone who's a Browns fan is on a good standing with me.

As for Calvin and Hobbes..just a great comic, enjoyed the fact that this guy is doing this a continuation.

i think Ziggy has some connection to American Greetings...also a Cleveland area company.

Tom Batiuk, who does Funky Winkerbean and Crankshaft, is from Akron. not sure if he's still living around here though.

I used to be really into Calvin and Hobbes, and remember how disappointed I was when Watterson gave it up.

Good times, good times...

Indeed.

If someone can find this one it would be appreciated.

Calvin falling to the Earth through the clouds. He remembers he has his transmogrifier with him. He thinks out loud..."Whew...I'm safe!"...

and he accidentally turns into a fast falling safe.

:lmao:

Unlike the the vast majority of buttfucked retards who claim to write/draw for kids, who never even learned what a normal childhood is let alone remember it, Watterson never forgot what it's like to be a kid.

That, alone, explains why the fuck so many people relate to his work... we've all been there, dammit!

He's far from a genius - thankfully. He's just* someone who still remembers.

We need a shitload more people like him.

Cheers! :bottle:

*Yeah... just. As if there's more than a handful of people like him around the world at any given time.

I forgot how good this stuff was. I haven't looked at a Calvin and Hobbs strip in ages. You don't even see him pissing on Ford or Chevy on the back of trucks anymore.

Awesome Calvinball strip! Thanks, Doc:)
Now I gotta go to my mom's and dig all of these books out of the attic!
Sadly up in these parts, the meat-heads drive around with Calvin pissing on the Yankees logo.
I hate that shit!

This was a cool find:
