Nice. Definately in the Top Comics of All Time top 3, along with The Far Side and Bloom County.

 

[PaScott00]

Bloom County was definately the best

 

[T3C]

Far Side >= Calvin and Hobbes > Bloom County.

In fact, I have a Bloom County book, and I didn't find it that good at all. And the drawing style blew.

Maybe I'm just too young.

A complete Calvin & Hobbes collection (like the Far Side one) is due out in October, super-fans might want to pre-order it instead (ISBN: 0740748475 $95 at Amazon)

Bloom County, then Calvin and Hobbes, then way down the mountain is everything else.

Anyone remember a strip called "Arnold"? He would write to Miss Manners and her response was "Gentle Reader, I will pay you to leave me alone"

:heart:

My 'Scientific Progress Goes Boink' got soaked years ago and is really worn. I may pick up another.

Anyone know if this is local only?

Anyone else see this at thiers?

I remember seeing this at the Westbury Borders a while ago, so they're probably a bargain bin regular. C&H is well worth the MSRP, but $6 apiece is outstanding.

B&N has some of these comic collections on sale regularly, so you might want to check your local B&N, too. I think Far Side 3 is still $6 there. I had to buy it, b/c it has the classic man, bird, and cat coconutty collision that so pleased the parrot.

You've got to be kidding me. You actually prefer the Far Side drawing style over Bloom County? While the Far Side is great, Larson's drawing talent pales compared to Waterson and Breathed.

Thanks for the heads up.

Calvin & Hobbes > *

Please insert an icon of Calvin performing an act on anyone with a stupid window/bumper sticker so they know how much of an idiot they are.

 

[DocGumby]

Yah i think B&N and even Borders has the calvin books onsale for like 6 bucks each at their stores. Calvin and Hobbes is a personal favorite of mines too. I really can't stand to see that rip off phoney calvin peeing decal on dumb people's cars though.

Far Side >= Calvin and Hobbes > Fox Trot > Bloom County.
that being said thats the top 4 or so lol

and yes i swear i've seen these things at under 10 bux .,..its like a permanent clearance

what i want is a stuffed hobbes or wahtever. but he's against marketing grr

 

[akugami]

Spaceman Spiff forever. I was really sad to see Calvin & Hobbes end as it was one of the few comic strips worth reading in the newspapers.

 

[RBC]

Calvin is my favorite too (and my three boys too), by a long shot over most anything else but there is a lot more good stuff this. Besides the other big two that have been mentioned above, does anyone remember Pogo? Am I dating myself too severely? I just remember falling on the floor laughing at that one as a kid.

BTW, last christmas, Borders had the C&H books in clearance and were selling all clearance at buy two get a third book free.

 

[moonsite]

I vote for Calvin. I got most of the collections already.

 

[fbrdphreak]

hot, i might check that out
I :heart: C&H

 

[mindwreck]

calvin and hobbes are the best. i loved reading the comics. I own most of them but now i want that complete collection. Thx for the info Dave

 

[unhuman]

I do... I bet that's where Adam Sandler stole his lunch lady stuff from...

The stuff he did to the lunch ladies was amazing!
