Calvin Hobbes : Best of Dec 1985.

I am a big fan of Calvin and Hobbes. So if i am writing a blog then C & H should come into it. Anyways all technical details about the stock market was getting a little boring. So i thought i should mix some fun stuff also. If some one doesnot know about Calvin and Hobbes then here are few calrifications, which if you keep in your mind then you will enjoy the this strip all the more. Calvin is a pretty sarcastic kid who is infact quite sadistic, extremely creative, greedy and philosophical. Well, hobbes is his split personality which is more content, mentally stable, less mischievious but always helps his other personality. Bill Waterson came up with a amazing solution to depict the split personality of Calvin through the way Calvin most of the time see i.e. with Hobbes alive and talking to him and as his best friend. But Calvin doesnot have any idea of non-existence of Hobbes and yet you will see many shots of Hobbes as just a stuff toy. This is often to explain the audience what it will look to the normal people in the Calvin world and the alive Hobbes is what it looks to Calvin. That is the reason for all his unique personality. Remember, just don't read the sarcasm,pun, and fun dialogues but try to see the way the shots are presented. Most of the time you will realise the deeper meaning behind sudden switch between shots containg his monsters and real world people. Also remember when Calvin is talking to Hobbes then actually he is talking to himself i.e. he is only refuting and agreeing his own agreements. Like in one strip Calvin is abusing Susie, a new girl in his class and at the same time Hobbes is saying she is cute and asking him, does he like her.Remember these points and then read. You will enjoy more.

I am pretty sure that everyone will agree with me that never in the history of comic strips has been a work that was created as rich, deep, funny, philosophical and graphically pleasing as Calvin and Hobbes. Bill Waterson is awesome.

Ofcourse Calvin and Hobbes is copyrighted to Bill Waterson and I am here just to promote this Strip, nothing more. Hope you all are going to enjoy.
