Summary: this is dissappointing
Review: ...this book IS exactly what it sounds like, Calvin and Hobbes comic
strips reprinted in German. Some of the oldest at that. And the book
is small and thin. .... Zero stars if you can't read German. Probably
4 stars if you can, assuming the translation is good.

Summary: Bad luck for all of you who don't speak German
Review: First I have to say, that it's really not that easy to find out online that this book is in German - luckily I'm German so I understood it. Es ist ziemlich gut, man sollte sich aber doch lieber an die englischen Originalausgaben halten. I liked it as I liked all Calvin and Hobbes, but better buy the "Essential" or the other English reprints - they're much better.

Summary: Only buy this book if you speak German!
Review: I also bought this book based on a reader review. I don't know what they were thinking! This is all in German! I'm really dissapointed. Oh well, maybe one of my friends in Germany will enjoy it...

Summary: poor translation - not in chronological order - fewer strips
Review: oh well... yes, it's just a german translation. And don't buy it, if you can get the english originals (for those who speak both languages) - it's not worth it at allThis is just an example of poor publishing
- the translation is poor, some lines are just mistranslated, some jokes/lines are missed completely (and don't make any sense anymore). I know that the process of translating comic strip is not an easy one, but here it was done amateurishly
- the german editions are not a 1-1 translation of the originials, they rather made a couple issues out of one original - and they threw the correct order of the strips overboard, that way you need to buy 10 german c&h books to get the aquivalent of 3 of the orginals...
