Let's see if the humor changes with different timing; every Calvin and Hobbes (http://www1.stfunoob.com/calvin_hobbes/index.htm) comic ever made is online at the aforementioned link. Calvin and Hobbes is a fantastic comic and it's undoubtably an influence on Onstad as well as an entire generation of humorists and humor aficionados.

Wow, it's great to see ALL of it. I've seen the Ucomics archive before, but that one only lets you look at so many. They just don't make comics like this anymore.

Watch it there, Champ.

Innocent but trouble-prone five-year-old ? Check.

Eeeeeeeexcellent...
This shall destroy my social life. A bit more.
-
I have a PDF file with all of these comics in it.
They are indeed the best damn collection of comic strips ever made.
Achewood can aspire to C&H, but let's have a little perspective.

Achewood is my favorite comic still in production hands down. Nothing else comes close. Be that as it may, Calvin and Hobbes has a special place in my heart that no other comic can ever replace. I love Achewood as much as it is legal for a person to love a comic, but I love Calvin and Hobbes even a little more than that.

Indeed. Calvin and Hobbes and the Far Side were quite possibly two of the best comics ever made.

I'd like to point that I was just fuck*ng around, but I know back in the day someone was remodeling a house and pulled some old newspaper out of the wall, and discovered a Little Nemo strip. Fondly but sadly, he too said 'they just don't make comics like this anymore'.

I hope I don't get in trouble, but here (http://www.bugbread.com/miscweb/calvinretouch.jpg).

I've seen that around, and even though it's fake, it really is the Saddest Thing.
-
Yeah, it's non-canonical, but that's why it's ok to laugh, right?
-
God, yeah, if that had been the final C&H, I probably would have slit my wrists.

whimper

Man, repeated listenings to the Chipmunks' "Time Warp" cover had me in a bit of a fun mood. That... just brought me right back down.
Extra points for subtlety: The title simply reading "Calvin."
-
C&H was one of my favorite strips, but I still think that's some funny shit.
Apologies, though, to anyone who was truly bothered.
-
I felt the intense need to clap at my screen to try and keep Hobbes alive.

Sign #574 That I'm a Callous Bastard:
The part that bothered me most about that edit was the fonts. Oh, god, the fonts.

There are at least two other versions of that - and I'm afraid the fonts don't get no better.
-
So what's the deal with that? Is that a really good imitation, or is that the actual art from the fabled alternate ending?
Edit: Or it's just other strips spliced together. I forgot that Watterson hated the "talking heads" method of comic making and would never have several panels with static characters.

That's one of the many reasons why that guy is the fuck*ng man.
God, I miss Calvin and Hobbes.
