When I was younger a friend of mine used to have a lot of Calvin & Hobbes comics and he introduced me to them.
I immediately loved them. I can't think of a sweeter, cuter and at times funnier comic. (except Peanuts of course, :D )
For a long time I completely forgot about it but now I kinda re-thought about it.

I'll start to buy the comic books soon, I want to have them all and feel like the good old times again. :)

Anybody else loving C&H, what do you like in them? Any favourite strips ?

Tell me !

That's not my favorite, but the cartoon at that link will change every day in the sequence they were originally published.

You can go back about two weeks without registering at ucomics.com and longer if you register -- I think you have access to the last year's postings but it might be all of them that have been posted there.
 
I have the trade paperbacks...I was dismayed when the strip quit running. I love Calvin & Hobbes. It is my all time favorite, even over Bloom County.
 
Calvin & hobbes have been my favorites for so long. My friend and i knew them so well we would just send each other the punch lines to cheer each other up.

My favorite of all time is the one where Calvin builds the snow men around the family car & dad says "We need to get that kid to a psychologist"

And

the one where calvin impersonates his dad and mom is dying out laughin in the final frame while dad grouses about "that's one darn sarcastic kid we are raising"

-Colly
 
Calvin: What's it like to fall in love?
Hobbes: Well... Say the object of your affection walks by...
Calvin: Yeah?
Hobbes: First, your heart falls into your stomach and splashes your
innards. All the moisture makes you sweat profusely. This
condensation shorts the circuits to your brain, and you get all
woozy. When your brain burns out altogether, your mouth
disengages and you babble like a cretin until she leaves.
Calvin: That's love?!?
Hobbes: Medically speaking.
Calvin: Heck, that happened to me once, but I figured it was cooties!

Giving each other punchlines is just great and sweet. Lucky you.
And yeah, the snowmen are superb.

My most favourite one is, and I've mentioned it before somewhere on these boards, where we see one of Calvin's days without any words. He has to get up early which of course makes him be in a bad mood. Waiting for the bus he stands in pouring rain, in school he has to eat a gross sandwich, he gets back a test saying 'F'.
When he is totally pissed off by the world he gets home and is immediately attacked by Hobbes of course. They fight like usual and after that his mom asks him, 'How's your day?'

Calvin lies on the floor, totally worked up by the struggle, grins and replies, 'Getting better.'

It just touched my heart.

I'm a Calvin and Hobbes fan!

I recently introduced my husband to the comic books, and he likes them too.

I found a site you might like Snoopy with quotes from Calvin and Hobbes: Quotes.

One of my favorites has to be this one:

"A little rudeness and disrespect can elevate a meaningless interaction to a battle of wills and add drama to an otherwise dull day."

(Kinda true about some of us Literoticans, no?!)

:D

That's great. I always found the comic very witty and I like the fact that there are silly/funny strips as well as charming/heart-wrenching/deep strips. :)

My favorite one is where he gives the ode to a snowball. I had that one written on my dry erase board on the door of my college dorm room all winter one year.

I absolutely love Calvin and Hobbes!!

Calvin is a glum little man, and I love him. As much as I miss Calvin & Hobbes, I appreciate their creator for refusing to sell the rights for someone else to continue writing the strip when he decided not to continue. Integrity. What an odd concept. I owned several books - the only books of comics besides Doonesbury that I've ever bought - but they're the kind that are loaned and never returned. It's worth it to spread the glee.

"Happiness isn't good enough for me! I demand euphoria!"

Consolation for the childless:

"Where do we keep all our chainsaws, Mom?"
 
"What point is there in having rocketship underpants if nobody ever asks to see them?" ~ Calvin
 
Calvin: Hi Susie what did you bring for lunch today?

Susie: A swiss cheese and ketchup sandwich. it's my favorite too, so I don't want to hear what gross thing YOU brought.

Calvin: Relax Susie I bought the cafeteria lunch today.

Susie: Good

Calvin: It appears to be cigar butts in a gallstone sauce.

Susie: That's BEENIE-WIENIES!!!!

Calvin: Really? Oh gross.
 
Long time fan here.

"Ha! The living dead don't have to worry about word problems."

Calvin: What happens to us when we die?
Hobbes: I believe we play saxophone in an all girl cabaret in Pittsburgh.
Calvin: So, you believe in Heaven then?
Hobbes: Call it what you will.

Sigh. Calvin & Hobbes, Bloom County, Liberty Meadows, The Far Side. Why did they have to die? Why?

(Sobs disconsolately)

C&H ended because Watterson simply burned out. He always resisted merchandiceing and other corruption of his creations, rather than pass the strip on to others he put an end to it. I respect him even as i still mourn the loss of the strip.

They may have died, but theylive on at sits like ucomics and some, like Bloom County, died to make way for new incarnations -- there is a new strip at ucomics starring Opus but since I'm not registered there I haven't been able to check it out. Reruns of Bloom County are availble to casual visitors, though.

Opus' new strip is Sundays only. It also features the hairball-gagging cat, so it's worth subscribing to your Sunday newspaper even if you do your news-reading online.

Aak!
 
I thought Calvin was making a Dubya-joke here..?

My favourite episode is definitely where this conversation takes plasce:

Calvin: People think it must be fun to be a genius, but they don't realize how hard it is to put up with all the idiots of the world every day.
Hobbes: Isn't the zipper on your pants supposed to be in the front?
