I might have skipped a few comics, here and there--not for lack of trying, but for the sheer enormity of this collection (and my boyfriend knocking out my bookmark, but I'm not placing blame).
I will say that, while I only vaguely recognized Calvin & Hobbes from the newspaper comics of my childhood, when every ounce of political satire was wasted on my young eyes, I thoroughly enjoyed reading the selections from this book. Not only did it remind me, fondly, of the imagination and wonder that we all shared in childhood; it reminded me, too, of the politically-motivated comics taped to the check-out desk of my favorite local bookstore. Nostalgia works in the funniest of ways!
