Nostalgic Calvin and Hobbes Fan Art
Calvin & Hobbes has always been one of my favorite cartoon strips. I fondly remember snatching the funnies out of the Sunday newspaper (you know, back when newspapers were a big deal) and carefully reading strips in a particular order. Peanuts was a light appetizer, Far Side was my dinner salad and that huge, full color Calvin & Hobbes strip was my delicious main course. While the Internet was still kicking off, I was digesting those thin paperback, 100-page releases of a year or two of Calvin & Hobbes strips.
When I revisited the comics as an adult about 15 years later, I started to pick up on the clever elements of philosophy and history that are wrapped into the comic strips. it makes me think Pixar stole their entire gameplan to make movies for both adults and kids directly from Bill Watterson.
Anyway, if you are interested in discovering or rediscovering Calvin & Hobbes, I highly recommend the Calvin & Hobbes Tumblr. For those familiar with the series, check out this collection of Calvin & Hobbes fan art created by a large collection of different artists:

In reading Calvin & Hobbes, during in my teenage years, I learned that if I could go back in time and observe my young self, I would be just like Calvin. I say this because I’m always told that I’m a kid in an adult’s body. So I don’t want to grow up. What the big deal?

I learned that Snowmen are out to get me… but, on a real note, I learned that being a kid is a magical time where your imagination can be your best friend, and how we need to think like a kid once in a while to recapture that magic. Also, the fuddy-duddy in me says that all the digital stimuli that kids get nowadays rob them of the joys so eloquently captured in Calvin & Hobbes.

Daniel
April 23, 2013 at 11:23 am
Back in the day when I was a latchkey kid and spent a lot of days with my brother home alone, Calvin and Hobbes was like a doorway out to the open world from the safety of my home sort of filling in the role my parents should’ve filled teaching us about the poignant strength of a colorful imagination and philosphy. And being of Asian descent stressing getting good grades but was consoled by calvin that even if I was lacking in studies there was more than that, that my value lied in more than that and to enjoy myself despite not always being the best in school. So Calvin and Hobbes brings such a sense of fond nostalgia and gratitude when I read it again

Calvin and Hobbes have represented to me the purity and inocense of childhood. As Adult I have acknowledge this and look foward on reading it with my children.
They should also make a movie or a TV series about Calvin and Hobbes.(If they hav’nt done so.) It would be way better than the majority of junk cartoons that are out there.

The reason old pictures are black and white is because the whole world was black and white until the early 1900’s. (then it was a grainy color for a while)

Patience for my little “Calvin” who is nicknamed The Destruction King. His creativity and imagination takes him on many adventures that usually end up like many Calvin and Hobbes comic strips.

I learned that being a little different, a little odd, a little bit unique is perfectly fine in the end. Even if some think you are a little off. It’s ok.

I always loved the quote “Things are never quite as scary when you’ve got a best friend.” I also learned that it is much more fun to make a snowman house of horrors, rather than regular snowmen.

Calvin and Hobbes taught me the value of true friends, and that adventures are always when you have someone to share them with.
