Picking th best of c/h, far side and bloom county is like trying to choose between farrah, Jacqueline and the other angel.

I used to post on my office door the Far Side with the kid practicing the tuba behind the outhouse and the crowd of people standing about 50' away from the of the place.

Every single time someone tries to push a door that read 'Pull,' my wife and I will look at each other and mutter 'Midvale School for the Gifted.'

Far Side and C&H are both so great, do we have to debate?

I own the complete Calvin and Hobbes books (http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Calvin-Hobbes-CALVIN-HOBBES/dp/B0081UQBJA/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1436970786&sr=8-2&keywords=calvin+and+hobbes+complete+set&pebp=1436970790572&perid=00YJFKWV2CSY0V3W3TC4)

and they have new life now that I have a son.

Nice article in the post about the come back.

1995 was a cruel year for comics fans, tolling a certain cultural diminution of the page. Breathed retired his Sunday-only “Outland,” Gary Larson packed up “The Far Side” menagerie, and Bill Watterson let “Calvin and Hobbes” sled off into eternal white space. Three still-young men had flown high, and were now hanging it up.

Originally, I was going to post this in the cycling thread, but with all the discussion of Far Side here, perhaps it fits better in this thread.

Berkeley Breathed has acquired Calvin and Hobbes.

A big day for C&H fans: Bill Watterson and myself in Tuscany signing the franchise over to my "administration." Watterson's in great shape -- he's out of the Arizona facility, continent and looking forward to some well-earned financial security. You rock, Bill. --bb
