Calvin and Hobbes was my very favorite cartoon as a kid. I have nearly every book ever printed, and will definitely hand them down to my children.

The image of the grown up Calvin in the background, coupled with the unsure look on Hobbes face made me a little sad. Did anyone else notice though that Calvin’s daughter looks a lot like Susie Derkins (Calvin’s archenemy/crush in the comics)?

Who drew this?

    I love Calvin and Hobbes—to the point that thinking of Calvin growing up makes me incredibly sad.

    This is amazing. I never really read this as a child, but the image of the grown up kid in the background makes me sad.
