Calvin and Hobbes

Abstract

They're back: Calvin, the six-year-old dirty tricksmeister and master of indignation and his warm, cuddly philosopher sidekick, Hobbes. A tiger whose idea of adventure is to lie on his back by the fire and have his stomach rubbed. In six short years this unlikely duo has captured the hearts, the minds, and, most of all, the funny bones of America. They are the most phenomenal success story in syndication - and publishing - history. In only six years, they appear in more than 2,100 newspapers worldwide, and Calvin and Hobbes wins as many readership polls as Calvin has excesses. All seven of Bill Watterson's collections have sold a million copies within a year of publication. This treasury collection contains a never-before-published full-color section, as well as the cartoons appearing in 'The Revenge of the Baby-Sat' and 'Scientific Progress Goes "Boink."' All Sunday cartoons are presented full-page and full-color.

Résumé : une bande dessinée américaine (ou comic strip) écrite et illustrée par Bill Watterson, qui met en scène les aventures humoristiques de Calvin, un enfant imaginatif de six ans, et de Hobbes, son tigre en peluche sarcastique. Par ironie, les noms des deux personnages sont tirés du nom de deux penseurs aux philosophies radicalement différentes : le théologien Jean Calvin et le matérialiste Thomas Hobbes
