It hasn't been the same since Bill Watterston stopped writing Calvin & Hobbes.

What a shame when he stopped writing. That was my favorite strip back in the day. I still have several of his collections on my book shelf

As far as I know, I have enough of his books that I have every strip he wrote. There are books I don't have, but only because they are comilations of what I already have.

I'm also a huge Garfield fan. I need to catch up, but I have books #1-38 or so. There have been a few more, but I haven't bought any in awhile.

Yeah, I got the compiled edition - it's a box set of three huge hardcover volumes containing every single strip ever written. it's a must-have for any Calvin and Hobbes fan!

I wonder how Watterston's paleontology studies are going.

I bought that for my son 2 Christmases ago. I still leaf through it. Brings back great memories.

Comics haven't been the same since then, and even before that when Bloom County stopped (Outland my ass!).

JUMPSTART by Robb Armstrong......met him once and even made me a personal comic w/ me in it!

Pretty cool 'eh! (little reference for my Canadian friends

Funny that the people who most resemble the particular character in the comic never see themselves in that role.

I used to get a great kick out of Bloom County. Outland wasn't as good an iteration, IMHO, but Opus is fun. I miss the Peanuts being "fresh", too. Still love Garfeld!

<3 I used to buy every Garfield comic book I could find. Love it. Calvin and Hobbes was great too. Hooray for comics at the back of my newspaper every day. It's a nice way to finish reading the whole thing.

You know what comic I really don't like? Doonesbury. I don't find it funny. I actually think it's quite boring, and not funny at all! Lol, does anyone know what this is? I think different papers have different comics..
