Calvin & Hobbes ended 15 years ago....who still misses them?
 
I still miss the strip a lot....anyone else?

Bill Watterson reflects on "Calvin & Hobbes" with local newspaper reporter in his first interview since 1989:

I think I read all of the comics, and I still have many of the compilation books.

Hands down greatest comic of all time.

I respectfully disagree. Garfield used to be good a long time ago - I think Garfield is way past its prime.

The good old days.
Holding a calvin and hobbes comic and just reading it reminds me of my childhood.

miss_crayon 02-01-2010 11:40 PM

when my brother and i were younger we'd read calvin and hobbes together before bedtime since we shared a room. that was so long ago. :(

Crap it has already been 15 years too!? Holy geez I'm old. That was the funniest comic by far.

+1

Farside was my second favourite.

Calvin and Hobbes was awesome. period.

maaannnn Calvin and Hobbes was the best because it had a childish maturity.... The playfulness and mischieviousness (word?) of Calvin coupled with the maturity of Waterson's writing just makes this comic so relatable, regardless of age. I especially liked the catastrophic trips down a hill in the wagon. Calvin offers some insight into seemingly trivial things before the crash that comes at the end of every strip.

That, and Calvin's snowmen are epic.

I think it was me. The kicker is that I never found the time to pick it up myself. :(

I miss them. So much. :(

I wanted their collection so bad. I grew up reading that.

3seriesBeeM 02-03-2010 01:01 AM

I want to buy the collection. I miss those comics so much it brings back childhood memories, it was like the only book i would read
