It was 25 years ago today that Bill, a man who had not succeeded as a political cartoonist, launched a comic strip. The comic was like peanuts in that it gave adult voices to children but also explored the hyperactiveness and innocence of children. It was acclaimed and loved but after only 10 years, Bill said he was done. He didnt do many interviews and doesnt sign autographs, but his work still brings joy to many.
So Mr Bill Watterson, Happy 25th anniversary of Calvin and Hobbes.This thread is currently associated with: N/ALast edited by gryphon; Thu, Nov 18th, 2010 at 05:14 PM.

Though I *am* glad I didn't get that Hobbes tattoo I wanted when I was a teenager... The anthologies are good enough I think!
