New York Times best-seller!

Watterson's imaginative approach to his material and his inventive graphics have made Calvin and Hobbes one of the few universally admired by other cartoonists." --Charles Solomon, Los Angeles Times Book Review

Calvin and Hobbes is unquestionably one of the most popular comic strips of all time. The imaginative world of a boy and his real-only-to-him tiger was first syndicated in 1985 and appeared in more than 2,400 newspapers when Bill Watterson retired on January 1, 1996. The entire body of Calvin and Hobbes cartoons published in a truly noteworthy tribute to this singular cartoon in The Complete Calvin and Hobbes. Composed of three hardcover, four-color volumes in a sturdy slipcase, this edition includes all Calvin and Hobbes cartoons that ever appeared in syndication. This is the treasure that all Calvin and Hobbes fans seek.

Excellent

This is excellent, 3 big books gathering all Bill Waterson's work on Calvin & Hobbes. It weighs 10kg and has a rigid binding and box.

Lots of colored sheets and some review on the Bill Waterson's work.

Piece of Art

If you're the comics-strips fan, who has been always desperate about the fact, that you could never gather everything about your favourite comics in one collection, your days of despair are over. This book is every comics fan dream. Amazingly complex, ...and amazingly heavy, on great paper, each sunday strip with its well deserved own page, with background introduction. This will bring a satisfied smile on your face every time you catch a glance of this book on your shelf (providing it's sturdy enough to hold it). A tribute to Calvin and Hobbes. Marvellous.

The Complete Calvin and Hobbes

This is a really good set of Calvin and Hobbes cartoons. The bound form makes it more durable. Definitely a buy to keep.

Just...well, brilliant!

I have loved Calvin & Hobbes since I first stumbled across them c1990s. I have 3 sons (10-18) who have, quite literally, read to pieces the five collection books I own. So, when I found out about this series, I knew I would need at least one copy (for me).
Having purchased a set and examined it "in the flesh", I had no hesitation in ordering another two sets, one for each (and hoping I can read them as well). I may need to buy a 4th for me - the only reason I have not (yet)is concern about Customs saying I'm running an import business...
Shipping to Australia has resulted in a very minor dint to one corner of the box-set, courtesy of minimal airbags in the carton, but the books themselves are in fine shape. Quality is excellent, and my biggest issue now is deciding at what age to pass them to my boys, so that they can appreciate them for many years to come. Such is the physical condition.
The content is quite simply the best cartoon series I have ever seen, and having had children adds a new dimension of appreciation of the insights Bill Watterson crafted into the strips. Mr Watterson - thank you!
