Chosen as a recommended read by our Guest Editor, Neill Cameron
Bill Watterson’s Calvin and Hobbes is one of the great artistic works of the last century; thrilling, beautiful, wise and incredibly funny. I could have picked any of the collections, as they’re all absolutely fantastic and basically essential reading. But I went for this one, based mostly on the fact it has the greatest title of any book ever created. ~ Neill Cameron
