About this product

Product Information

Calvin, the six-year-old dirty tricksmeister and master of indignation and his warm, cuddly philosopher sidekick and Hobbes, a tiger whose idea of adventure is to lie on his back by the fire and have his stomach rubbed. This unlikely due captured the hearts, the minds, and, most of all, the funny bones of America. The Indispensable Calvin and Hobbes contains an original full-color section, as well as all the cartoons appearing in The Revenge of the Baby-Sat and Scientific Progress Goes "Boink." All Sunday cartoons are presented in full-color.

  • As Always, Total Awesomeness!

    As always, I wasn't disappointed in this collection of comics from the 80's and 90's by Bill Watterson! I love how he can create such varied expression with Calvin and his mom! My personal favorite was the one where you see Calvin's mom from Calvin's prospective, and his mom is jiggling violently and telling him "That's Enough!" And Calvin is walking with Hobbes later, and he says "Mom was really jiggling around this morning!" and Hobbes replies, "Maybe she's right about how much sugar you put on your cereal." Psssst.....don't forget to vote "Helpful" on my reviews! I appreciate it! -The_LEGO_Mart

  • Only bc its Calvin and Hobbes

    I loved this comic strip since it was first written, the book was bought for my nieces and nephews and I'm sure they'll love it as much as my children and I do. When buying books online, hindsight being 20/20, always ask for more pictures. This book stated it had previous owners but the wear and tear, I would've chosen something different. Although it will probably get more beat up by my 8 kiddos I'm gifting it to. We love to read.

  • Classic!

    What can I say? Calvin and Hobbes is a MUST for all cartoon lovers! This timeless cartoon from the 80s-90s is still one of my favorite! I couldn't resist and buy the hard-cover copy when I found out about it! It was difficult to find a new book as most were either pre-owned or overpriced but you can get just as lucky as I was. Don't forget to greet yourself the Essential and the Authoritative! The 3 will pretty much complete the entire series.

  • A great buy

    The 12 Calvin and Hobbs books I ordered were just as described. My daughter teaches school and asked me to keep a eye out for these books since a couple of boys who were not reading at grade level, really enjoy the books. She was so glad to get them!
