Re: Calvin and Hobbes
 

an excellent comic. the best. i own so many of the books. at one time i had them all but they might have released some special edition or something. it's been a while.

i remember when i got into it. i was in like 4th grade maybe, and they had them in my classroom's bookcase. i went out and bought one, i still remember my first book, "Weirdos from another planet", then "Yukon Ho" and so on..

how good

Whenever I look at the final cartoon, I get sad. It was a great choice as a sendoff.

$95??? DAMN!!!

You had me sold on this thing, until you said, "$95."

All that being said, I'll probably pick up a C+H book next time I'm in a bookstore, if they still stock old comic strip books.

Dilbert is the only one I would dare to mention in the same breath as C+H and FS, and Dilbert would be way in back of those two.

Calvin and Hobbes is number one, Far Side is number 2. Everything else is very very far behind.

No, Calvin and Hobbes is number one and the Far Side is awesome, but Bloom County isn't that far behind.
