(Calvin and) Hobbes and Bacon

[Grif]

So I don't know if everyone has seen this, but I feel like it deserves its own thread.









Calvin and Hobbes has always had a special place in my heart, and these four comics have been a sweet nostalgia trip.

Man frick you.

The first panel of the first comic was the last panel of the very last Calvin and Hobbes comic. And I remember crying like a bitch when I read it.

I find these very touching, at an extreme emotional level for me.

This warms my heart so much right now.

Those are brilliant

I never read the original ones as much as other people clearly did, but these still make me smile

Well, why not?? READ MOAR!

I flip through the books these days, and I see a lot of strips about the environment and humanity's place on Earth that make me think of discussions held on this site.

<3 C&H.

Those are great.

Well C&H should be Number 1.

No kidding.

One that caught my eye in one the books a while back:


My apologies to Bill Watterson, but I just had to make a slight modification to illustrate one of the things I see in this strip: http://mikkowilson.com/files/CH_PeopleNeverContent2.jpg

Haha yes, I remember that on IRC.

There are a few other strips worth noting on this page. The ones that stick out the most to me are Calvin's asking of Hobbes about the Devil plus the one with "Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us."

I love Calvin and Hobbes, I remember reading all the strips back in 6th grade, I was so sad when I made it to the last one. But this is great, made my day reading these.
