    <![CDATA[<em>New York Times</em> best-seller!<p>Watterson's imaginative approach to his material and his inventive graphics have made <em>Calvin and Hobbes</em> one of the few universally admired by other cartoonists.&quot; --Charles Solomon, <em>Los Angeles Times Book Review</em><p><em>Calvin and Hobbes</em> is unquestionably one of the most popular comic strips of all time. The imaginative world of a boy and his real-only-to-him tiger was first syndicated in 1985 and appeared in more than 2,400 newspapers when Bill Watterson retired on January 1, 1996. The entire body of <em>Calvin and Hobbes</em> cartoons published in a truly noteworthy tribute to this singular cartoon in <em>The Complete Calvin and Hobbes</em>. Composed of three hardcover, four-color volumes in a sturdy slipcase, this edition includes all <em>Calvin and Hobbes</em> cartoons that ever appeared in syndication. This is the treasure that all <em>Calvin and Hobbes</em> fans seek.</p></p>]]>
