About the Book
Brings together every "Calvin and Hobbes" cartoon that has ever appeared in syndication, along with stories and poems from classic collections.Book Synopsis
Join Calvin and Hobbes on all their adventures in this four-volume collection of every comic strip from the comic strip's eleven year history (1985 to1996). 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 four paperback, four-color volumes in a sturdy slipcase, this New York Times best-selling edition includes all Calvin and Hobbes cartoons that ever appeared in syndication. This is the treasure that all Calvin and Hobbes fans seek.Review Quotes

I had all the Calvin and Hobbes books and I loved them. The only problem with the individual books was that a lot of the strips repeated in other books of his. This boxed set is printed on heavy paper, the coloring is great and best of all, the strips are in order. I now know exactly when Spaceman Spiff appeared in the comic strips. The same thing with The Evil Babysitter or Mo, the bully. It's all there, and in order. Mr. Watterson has also included many of his new watercolor pictures of Calvin & Hobbes. I would recommend this set of books to anyone who loves this great comic stripe.
