Summary: C&H Transcends Your Everyday Comic Strip
Review: I've been with Calvin and Hobbes for a good part of a decade, and love em as much as one can love a couple of cartoon characters. Which is a lot, actually. What's so special about it is that it's instantly accessible for almost everyone and every age; when i was a kid, the artwork cracked me up. those lovable yet zany expressions on calvin were a surefire cure for schoolday blues. Not to mention the many struggles with his dinner and baby sitter. And later, I fell in love with the dialogue...witty wise cracks, sometimes just plain stupid, (what do u expect of a 6 year old anyway)...but more than often, insightful and contemplative. And that a six year old discusses themes such as morality, or the apparently pointless nature of human existence, never fails to put a smile on my face.

Thank all the forces responsible for the creation of Calvin and Hobbes.

Review: IT'S THE BEST CAVIN AND HOBBES BOOK I'VE EVER READ. I ABSALUTLY LOVE THE STORY ABOUT STUPENDOUS MAN. ANOTHER GREAT STORY WAS ABOUT HIS CLUB G.R.O.S.S. I ALSO REALLY LIKED SUNDAY COMICS THAT STARED SPACEMAN SPIFF.

Summary: Hey, ya'll ~ *TheClownfish*
Review: Okay, I do own this own myself and I love it! It truly does express the relationship Calvin has with Hobbes. Like of corse "the secret letters from no one" calvin keeps getting in the mail. I do say this is one of my favorite books and if your are thinking of getting this one, go ahead! :)

Summary: The best book in the entire Calvin and Hobbes series
Review: Probably the best book in the entire Calvin and Hobbes series (with the exception of the Tenth Anniversary book), this collection of strips is a definite 5-star combination. (Too bad they won't let you give 6 stars or more.) This book should be considered a treasury.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best "Calvin & Hobbes" books
Review: Simply, Watterson's a genius. "Calvin & Hobbes" is an intellectual cartoon, yet easily the most hilarious one around. And "Jungle" is definitely one of Watterson's crowning achievements. He will be sorely missed!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: There's a party in his head and you're invited
Review: Some parents tell me that "Calvin and Hobbes" isn't a comic, it's a documentary.

Calvin is the small boy with a vivid life of mind, or over-active imagination, or clear break from consensual reality, choose your words. Hobbes is a mysterious being. With Calvin, he's a charming, philosophical, debonair spirit of the natural world. When Calvin's parents appear, he becomes something completely different - if you don't already know, I won't spoil the surprise.

Calvin travels to distant planets, he battles dinosaurs or becomes them, he commands travel through time, and he is plagued by his evil robot alter-ego. His parents and teachers disagree, of course. Through it all, he remains blindly and merrily the star of his own show. There really is something seductive about his little world, and the way it spins only around himself. If there's a tragedy in growing up, Calvin leaves it for you to define for yourself.

This is a wonderful collection of C&H strips. It's too bad that Watterson shut the comic strips down long ago, but he didn't want C&H to lose their freshness. Maybe he need not have worried - ten years later, these haven't lost anything.

Summary: Very funny, but sometimes monotonous
Review: The best thing I like about Calvin & Hobbes is the dialogue between Calvin and his father. I rate this book just below Asterix (European comic book).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Back from hiatus and back in the groove
Review: This book represents the first strips published by Bill Waterson after he returned from a long hiatus. Though it does not contain any sequence of strips as memorable as the classic "Attack of the Deranged Mutant Killer Snow Goons," it is still another excellent collection of Calvin and Hobbes cartoons. Starting with this book, the collections got larger, with color for the Sunday strips. For that alone, its worth the price.
