The Complete Calvin and Hobbes (Calvin & Hobbes)
"I've loved comic strips as long as I can remember. As a kid, I knew I wanted to be either a cartoonist or an astronaut. The latter was never much of a possibility, as I don't even like riding in elevators. I kept my options open until seventh grade, but when I stopped understanding math and science, my choice was made. There is great personal satisfaction in attending to detail and quality, and I remain very proud of the standards the strip met day after day. I also liked the responsibility of knowing that, succeed or fail, it was all my own doing. This approach kept the strip very honest and personal--everything having to do with Calvin and Hobbes expressed my own ideas, my own values, my own way. I wrote every word, drew every line, and painted every color. It's a rare gift to find such fulfilling work and I tried to show my appreciation by giving the strip everything I had to offer."

It still smells new
I ordered this product 15 October 2005 and was so excited when I found it propped against my apartment door. I have practically all the books so I purchased this pretty much because I could and I wanted it on display. I have looked at some of the...

By far the Best present I bought a child.
I was about to recycle a Calvin and Hobbes paperback an ex girlfriend gave me years ago. As I thumbed through it, I ended up tossing it on my sons desk. He was 7 or 8 at the time. He read that book cover to cover. The next Christmas I gave him...

It's Clvin and Hobbes!!!
Really? How can you go wrong with Calvin and Hobbes. The collection is actually heavier than I expected. But we can't be disappointed with Calvin and Hobbes!! Calvin reminds me so much of my son.

Great gift idea
I got this as a Christmas gift for one of my best friends, and it was a hit -- I only wish I bought one for myself! If you're a Calvin and Hobbes fan, this is a must have... you can spend hours at a time reading it. Bill Watterson is a genius.

The Complete Calving and Hobbes
Gave this to my son for College Graduation. Waterson has the great ability to use humor and insight to make your day better. I use it for relaxation and I wanted my son to have the same experience. Reading it makes a tough day seem not so bad.

An excellent collection, just a shame about the quality
If you're a Calvin and Hobbes fan then you'll probably want to buy this collection, but this recommendation comes with a warning. The packaging and print quality is sadly not all that it should be. On my copy the advertising glue has remained...

When cartoons grew up.
I just got back from my post office here in Oslo Norway. The little woman who went back to get this package for me looked less than thrilled. This is HEAVY!
