Calvin and Hobbes: The Story of the Beloved Comic Strip

But the story of Calvin and Hobbes was much more than just a comic strip; it was an insightful storytelling masterclass that seamlessly incorporated many philosophical ideas. It's also a lesson in never compromising, as its creator, Bill Watterson, refused to give in to corporate interests. -Support the show and get access to the Everything 80s Movie Review Podcast: Patreon.com/80s Artwork: Janet Cordahi Learn more about your ad choices.
