"New York Times" best-seller
Everyone misses "Calvin and Hobbes."
It reinvented the newspaper comic strip at a time when many had all but buried
the funnies as a vehicle for fresh, creative work. Then Bill Watterson came
along and reminded a new generation of what older readers and comic strip
aficionados knew: A well-written and beautifully drawn strip is an intricate,
powerful form of communication. And with "Calvin and Hobbes," we had fun--just
like readers of "Krazy Kat" and "Pogo" did. Opening the newspaper each day was
an adventure. The heights of Watterson's creative imagination took us places we
had never been. We miss that.
