    I don't know if anyone else loves Calvin and Hobbes

    But seeing this made me very nostalgiac today.

    I've got the cure you're thinkin' of.

    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...

                    C & H kicks ass, thanks for the post. I have a few of the books around my house somewhere from when I was a kid.
