THE CALVIN AND HOBBES PORTABLE COMPENDIUM SET Volume 4

The fourth set of two-volume slipcased collections, in a series of seven collecting Bill Watterson's timeless comics. New portable format designed to introduce these brilliant and funny strips to a new generation, or let you re-experience the magnificent ten-year run of the strip. Calvin and his imaginary (?) stuffed tiger blend Dennis the Menace with fantasy and adventure. Featuring nearly 500 comics presented chronologically from December 1989 to April 1991. This compact, portable collection of Calvin and Hobbes comics will fit easily into backpacks as well as on the collector's shelf. Featuring archival slipcase and cover art selected by the author, The Calvin and Hobbes Portable Compendium pays tribute to the strip's origin in newspapers while appealing to both new and existing fans of Calvin and Hobbes. Calvin and Hobbes is one of the most popular comic strips of all time. The imaginative world of a boy and his real-only-to-him tiger first appeared in 1985 and could be read in more than 2,400 newspapers when Bill Watterson retired the strip on January 1, 1996. Since then it has become a legend; collected in huge 2 and 3 volumes editions, as well as a myriad of softcover editions, but here we have it all in uniform, bargain-priced softcovers.
