Added Music for Everyone


I embedded a music player with the album from the documentary Dear Mr. Watterson. The Band playing is called We Were Pirates and can be heard here on the blog but if you like the soundtrack and am a Amazon Prime member you can listen to it for free there!

I Made A gif!

My first gif I made is Calvin and Hobbes staring up into the night sky. I have added this to the side of the blog so we'll always see it!

"If people sat outside and looked at the stars each night, I'll bet they'd live a lot differently."

Is It Me Or It Getting Stuffy In Here?




We continue the story with Susie still at Calvin's house. Hopefully mom won't get any ideas about doing homework right after school!

A Poster On Etsy


As you may or may not know Mr. Watterson has made the decision from the beginning of his run to never licence Calvin and Hobbes to hardy anything. Unlike Jim Davis with Garfield who pasted his orange cat everywhere! I have to give Mr. Watterson a lot of respect for this but I can't help wanting the chance to own something Calvin and Hobbes besides the books. Many people online have created alternative product options to fill in the void of no official products. Enter Etsy. Etsy.com if you don't know is a site that people use to make products and sell them to other people online. So every week I will try to post a weekly Etsy post on a Calvin and Hobbes product for you to purchase. This week is a Calvin and Hobbes Crossing Bridge Poster print. The picture can be a little misleading as it looks like you get a picture in a frame but this is not the case. What you get is only a poster but it shouldn't be to hard to find a frame to fit this awesome piece of art in to. The poster is made by Wallartxshop who has many other Calvin and Hobbes posters to purchase. Here is the link so give this a look and happy shopping on Etsy!

Bill Watterson Quote

Was working at  my local highschool and saw this quote from the creator of Calvin and Hobbes Bill Watterson and had to post this here.

Not So Smart








Here we continue the story with Susie still at Calvin's house doing a lot of work!

Look up in the sky! Its a bird! Its a plane! It's a comic book cameo

The year is 1993. The very year that the man of steel would be killed in Superman #75. But before Superman would meet his fate at the hands of the monster known as Doomsday a little boy and his stuffed tiger would make a little cameo in Adventures of Superman #494.


In this page we see Superman being teleported back to earth from an adventure and we see a boy named "Cal" with a stuffed tiger most likely called "Hob". This a great little cameo for Calvin and Hobbes to make in a super hero comic! You can check out the comic book here if you are interested.

A Bone to pick with Barnes and Noble

So the other day I was at my local Barnes and Noble (and when I say local I mean a 45 minute drive from my house) and found the humor section which had some Calvin and Hobbes books including two complete sets of the complete collection of Calvin and Hobbes in paperback form for $100. Now a hundred sounds like a good price for this with it being the complete work of Bill Watterson but there was something I remembered from online. This set of books was being sold for $65 which is a lot better for the wallet. So I took the set and my phone with the website on my phone to show customer service and of course they didn't do anything about the price change and normally I wouldn't expect them to but the website that was selling them for $65 was Banes and Noble. So my question is why not change the price for people in the store to match their online prices? With online giants like Amazon who sell the same set at $59 which is the cheapest I have found you'd think that BN would have done something! I just took the set back to its place and as I walked out empty handed I was purchasing my new set on Amazon. This is very sad because I want to help retail stores like BN but when they refuse to change with the times like Blockbuster we will find ourselves in a would where you can't go out to get a book you'll have to order it and wait a day or two or download it.
