«Calvin and Hobbes 1: Thereby Hangs a Tale» is the comic strip by Bill Watterson, published by Warner in paperback (128 pages, in English).
Calvin is a six-year-old boy with a boundless imagination; Hobbes, his stuffed tiger, comes to life in his eyes as a companion as real as he is playful. Their adventures turn childhood routine into absurd situations, with intelligent humor and sharp dialogue typical of the comic strip.
First collected volume of the Calvin and Hobbes series, originally published in 1992.
For readers of all ages, especially those who enjoy intelligent humor and classic comic strips about childhood.
William Boyd Watterson II is an American cartoonist who authored the comic strip Calvin and Hobbes. The strip was syndicated from 1985 to 1995. Watterson concluded Calvin and Hobbes with a short statement to newspaper readers that he felt he had achieved all he could in the medium. Watterson is known for his negative views on comic syndication and licensing, his efforts to expand and elevate the newspaper comic as an art form, and his move back into private life after Calvin and Hobbes ended.
