    I've seen Calvin pissing on the back window of several pickups.

    Because the guy's a reclue means people shouldn't write about him?
    That's crazy.

    Damn straight. We've GOT the heaviest book to ever hit the NYT bestseller list, and most of the soft covers. Great bathroom reading.

    One of the top five comic strips of all time, if not No.1.

    Laughed my ass off every day, and I still own nearly all of the books.

    Calvin and Hobbes
    Bloom County
    Zits
    The Far Side
    For Better or For Worse

    Bloom County was unbelievable. The later renditions, not so much.

    I have never been much of a comic strip fan, but 'For Better or For Worse' was definitely the latter.

    Yeah, that's one I never understood. They had the dog die or something, and a segment of people treated it like the news of the century.

    Expand the list to 6 - drop For Better or For Worse and add:
    - Get Fuzzy
    - Foxtrot

    I think Watterson would have been happier today with the web. He always seemed to be annoyed about having to be published in newspapers that were constantly shrinking his space and placing limits on what he could do.

    There's so much good stuff out there in webcomics that wouldn't be available even ten years ago.

    Shit like this is why I won't trade with you.

    I never knew you had such a soft spot for 'For Better or For Worse.'
