CALVIN & HOBBES debuted on this day in 1985

 

It only appeared in 35 papers that day, but that number would soon skyrocket.
Within a year, the number was 250!
When Bill Watterson retired in 1995, the strip appeared in 2,400!

From Film Noir to Sci Fi to Existential Philosophy,no realm was left unexplored.

And at this time of year, we can't leave out the Snowmen.

Every year at this time, I start to re-read theentire run.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.BILL WATTERSON!
