Weirdos

I can't say enough good things about Bill Watterson's work on Calvin & Hobbes. His work has only grown on me more as I've gotten older. He's a fantastic draftsman and wonderful storyteller. I kind of view him as the J.D. Salinger of comics. He had a relatively short but immensely successful career only to become a bit of a recluse. Calvin & Hobbes only ran for 10 years


This is the martian from when Calvin & Hobbes flew into space after becoming disenchanted with the Earth.


Oh, I hate the Calvin peeing on things stickers. I hope anybody who has one of those on their truck gets struck down by an awesome T-Rex.
