    For as much as I miss Calvin and Hobbes, I am glad that he had the integrity to stop while it was awesome instead of totally whoring it out for anything and everything- crappy cartoon, theme park rides, sugar cereal, condensed soup, live action & CGI movie, adult diapers, Barbie doll, car race video game, so on and so forth.

    It is nice to see one fond childhood memory not ruined.
    Yeah that's pretty true. I get tired of seeing all those "Calvin urinating on [insert something I don't like here]" car stickers, though.
    Those aren't official though. At least I don't think they are.

    They aren't. And I too miss C&H. ;_; Seeing that fake comic where Hobbes wants to play with Calvin, but he's too busy doing homework and the last panel Hobbes is just a stuffed animal... So sad. So sad.

    And you still can! This was released a couple of years ago but for all the Calvin and Hobbes fans this is a must.

    I bought that even though I have all the other collections. Calvin and Hobbes is my favorite comic of all time. I usually reread the comics every year or so, ages so well.

    There is absolutely zero official Calvin and Hobbes merchandise. In one of the trades, Bill Watterson wrote that he did not want anything besides a comic. No cartoon, no giving voice to hobbes, clarifiying if he is real or not. He was upset at the bumper stickers and other goods that used his work.

    From what I've heard, that's why he stopped. People using his characters without consent.

    Whenever I see those I always want to get a second Calvin sticker to put up. It would be the same Calvin facing the first one, but no piss. And it would say "watersports."

    And no, I don't think any of those stickers were official, just cheap vinyl runs random people did to make some money.

    Noone is safe from Rule #34

    I loathe all those calvin pissing on (insert logo) stickers out there people have stuck on their vehicles. That got old like 5-10 years ago

    This reminds me of that one Pinky and the Brain episode.

    Pinky: *sigh* Family Circus just isn't funny anymore, Brain.

    Brain: Family Circus was never funny, Pinky.

    I can't remember the rest but it was a good one.

    Oh, and Family Circus actually did make me chuckle, *ONCE*. It was back in high school, it had something to do with Halloween.

    I wish that cartoon would die. But in a poll last year made by my main local newspaper it was #8 on the popularity index, which made me really sad. Better or Worse was #1, Dilbert was #20 and the only good comic in the whole list. Yea, I hate Indy.

    Thinking in reverse, what comics are funny anyway?

    The ones that I always read first (meaning they're funny most days) at work are Dilbert, Get Fuzzy, and Zits

    Get Fuzzy is often funny.

    Foxtrot also. But Bill Amend went Sunday-only at the start of the year

    Other than that, the LA Times comics page is largely trash.

    Family Circus should serve only as the Mad Libs of subversive subtitlers.

    Just take the picture, whiteout the caption, insert something funny. It's all the comic is good for, but it is good for that.
