Fuck yes it's time to read some Calvin and Hobbes
Going to start off with one of my favorite arcs, with a gorgeously drawn, beautifully colored Sunday every 3 or 4 strips.
It's a magical world, let's go exploring!

Right off the bat, Watterson makes a pretty smart, subtle joke about time travel making no sense
Asher Gutierrez

Good. It's not suited for animation.
Not because it's the sacred cow it is, you just can't convey the same movement and beauty of Watterson's art in animation without a budget worthy of bankrupting Disney.
Oliver Parker
The voice of Calvin would have sucked, and the delivery on the whimsy would never have had the same impact.
Nathan Anderson
Drawing something like this in class today would get the police called.
James Jones
Plus how would Hobbes work, imaginary or real
Watterson didn't want animation to settle the issue
Adrian Long
Course, you left me no choice. I didn't even want these feels right now.
Thanks OP.
Love this one

Calvins a rude lil shit, but I guess I would be too if all my mom fed me was non-descript green mush
Justin Gomez
I think the connection he's talking about is her not wanting to explain it to him, so it's bedtime
Angel Jackson
>worm eaten corpse
jesus kid
Sebastian Harris
This is a favorite of mine as well
Carter Jackson
>Drawing Calvin is easy! You just make a big mouth and add some hair!
Hah, I didn't remember this story but I do remember that line
Jackson Ross
Watterson gave a very accurate, real representation of being an out of place kid in grade school
Jeremiah Carter
...
Zachary Edwards
was waiting for that one
Juan Barnes
I'm gonna stop saying which ones are my "favorites" because nearly every sunday strip for the last 4 or 5 years of the comic is my favorite.
Grayson Adams
That hits a little bit too close.
Liam Martinez

Levi Campbell
The unfortunate part about Sup Forums is that no one storytimes the volumes where Watterson actually provided commentary for certain strips.
On top of being great comics, the commentary was genuinely interesting.
David Clark
If you get the chance, check out the Indispensable, The Authoritative, and The Essential Calvin and Hobbes Collections, as well as The Lazy Sunday Book. They all have these absolutely beautiful, full color, full page stories and poems that Watterson did just for the book.
Nolan Bailey
Man, remember the binoculars debacle? That one hit close to home. His parents appeared pretty one-dimensional most of the time but they were a great commentary on modern parenting at the same time.
One of the best.
I'm not sure I really understood this page as a kid, but holy shit yes it is incredibly on-point.
Where's this from?

Just something Bill Watterson drew.

Everyone's favorite
Nicholas Thomas
