The first set of books collecting Bill Watterson's timeless
Calvin and Hobbes comics in a compact, portable format
designed to introduce the timeless adventures of a
boy and his stuffed tiger to
a new generation of readers. Featuring nearly 500
comics from the strip's debut in November 1985 through March 1987,
this is the first set in a series of seven. "At some level, all
American childhoods are the same, which probably explains our
lasting love affair with Calvin and Hobbes." —The Washington Post
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 first appeared in 1985 and could be read in
more than 2,400 newspapers when Bill Watterson retired on January
1, 1996. This compact, portable new format is designed to introduce
the timeless adventures of Calvin and Hobbes to a new generation of
readers, and will fit easily into backpacks as well as on the
collector's shelf. Featuring archival slipcase and cover art
selected by the author, The Calvin and Hobbes Portable Compendium
pays tribute to the strip's origin in newspapers while appealing to
both new and existing fans of Calvin and Hobbes. This set is
composed of two 144-page paperback books, including nearly 500
comics from the strip's debut in Nov. 1985 through March 1987. It
is the first of seven sets total to be released between 2023 and
2026.
