Many people here are probably familiar with Calvin and Hobbes, with the often manic Calvin and his comrade in adventure/escapades, Hobbes. Many have probably already bought various compilations of the comic strips and looked through them again and again. So why buy THIS collection?
Mainly because it goes WAY beyond anything else that is already out there - and not just because it contains EVERY single one of the comic strips in one collection, nicely slipcased. Buy it because it comes closest to reflecting what Bill Watterson, creator of these comics, wanted, exceptional color quality, pretty much up to his very perfectionistic standards. Buy it because for the first time you’ll see the comic in as close to perfect form as you’ll find…and yes, buy it because you’ll finally have all of the strips in one set.
How much of a perfectionist was Watterson when it came to having control over his beloved characters? Well, imagine turning down a call from Steven Spielberg because you just aren’t interested in collaborating with anyone, genius or not, on a work based on your comic strip. Imagine giving up lucrative contracts for lunch boxes, animated films, stuffed Calvin and Hobbes figures.
Whether you think that turning down all those potentially lucrative opportunities was admirable or crazy, there is no denying that he poured his heart, soul and psyche into his work, not distracted by meetings about the design of a lunch box or the decal that woould appear on clothing.
Nope, he just did his work, day in and day out, until he decided, at an early age (around 37) that he’d done enough and simply….stopped. That was a sad day for me,as I’d grown to love Calvin and Hobbes and their unique world, one in which you never really knew the names of Calvin’s parents (anyone know?), one in which his teacher could morph into a monster, one that exemplified the psyche of one little boy so well and which hasn’t been equaled since.
It changes alot of the meaning of the strip itself; instead of ending in a preguntory, philosophical QUESTION, he changes it to a flat statement with no rhetorical thought at all. maybe he felt it was anti-adoption, and maybe he had a change of view after 15 YEARS. it happens. buy the set, respect watterson for not giving in to big business TEN years ago or selling out to plush toys and stickers, which are ALL illegal and never approved by Bill. He is a genius, and should be able to edit ONE comic in his opus if he felt the need– he deserves all the credit he receives.

Barack Obama Costume Mask
Here’s the mask Hillary Clinton would like to wear! This full-head, vinyl Barack Obama mask will make you feel downright presidential! Just add a suit or a “Change we can Believe In” t-shirt and you are ready for some serious campaigning. Mask features holes for eyes, nose, ears and mouth.
I think it’s cute. I thought this was for reviewing products you have purchased. I suppose maybe you can’t comprehend English composition well. So dear evangelist, stop trying to cram your racist, uneducated christian values down other American’s throats. If we wanted your backwater political views we will read one of your backwater christian blogs.
