“At some level, all American childhoods are the same, which probably explains our lasting love affair with Calvin and Hobbes.” —The Washington Post

Calvin and Hobbes is unquestionably one of the most popular comic strips of all time. The imaginative world of a boy and his real-only-to-him tiger first appeared in 1985 and could be read in more than 2,400 newspapers when Bill Watterson retired on January 1, 1996.
