Happy Calvin and Hobbes Day!

Post by Lobster Johnson »

Hi everyone,
Calvin and Hobbes is officially 30 years old today! Happy birthday to the best comic strip of all time (in my opinion, of course).
Here's a link to a pretty neat article about this: http://sktchd.com/longform/the-wonder-a ... ars-later/

I saw the movie Krampus over the weekend (which I enjoyed), it included a nice little shout-out to Calvin & Hobbes in a scene where the main character's parents mention his "noodle incident" in passing. :)
