Just in case you've got a thousand hours of spare time on your hands, here's all the Calvin and Hobbes comics ever published (legal, Bill Watterson approved version)

u/[deleted] · 14 pointsr/comics

This is at a fairly low price too for those that want a physical copy.

u/vaclavhavelsmustache · 13 pointsr/funny

why not spend $100 and show the author your appreciation by buying the complete set if you like it so much?

u/boblob · 10 pointsr/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu

I think you need get some people to buy this little nugget of joy for you.

u/tashbarg · 8 pointsr/calvinandhobbes

Any good bookstore should have it. Here it is at amazon, where you can get the ISBN with which every bookstore should be able to locate it. Or just order it there.

u/misterpyrrhuloxia · 7 pointsr/me_irl

Calvin & Hobbes was my childhood. For Christmas of 2011 my wife got me the full, boxed set of Calvin & Hobbes. It's incredible.

u/Scipion · 7 pointsr/funny

This is my favorite book/s on my bookcase.

u/wildly_curious_1 · 7 pointsr/talesfromtechsupport

I spent maybe two hours giving a random guy on a message board I was on some basic advice on selecting a new laptop, and explaining what some of the different technological things meant.

In my user profile on that site, I had, on a whim, linked to my Amazon wishlist.

The guy sent me The Complete Calvin & Hobbes, back when it was still going for full retail price.

I was absolutely blown away. Still am.

u/Wiggles69 · 6 pointsr/comics

I just bought this.

Job done.

u/Milstar · 6 pointsr/AskReddit

The three volumes cover all the comics. book

u/mk72206 · 6 pointsr/AskReddit

The Complete Calvin and Hobbes

My wife got it for my 28th birthday and it was one of the greatest gifts i've ever gotten.

u/ghnd79 · 5 pointsr/IAmA

He gave an in-depth answer to this question in "The Complete Calvin and Hobbes."

You can read the entire introduction (along with early examples of the strip and even one of his newer paintings) if you use the "look inside" option at Amazon. Here is the link...

It's really worth a few minutes if you don't own the collection already.

u/alSeen · 5 pointsr/pics

These Far Side books and these Calvin and Hobbes books are clearly showpiece.

They are also awesome.

u/lncontheivable · 4 pointsr/reddit.com

She just got this

u/TheDigitalRuler · 4 pointsr/environment

Complete Calvin & Hobbes (3 vol. hardcover) for $91.77 on Amazon

If Watterson is trying to make it hard for people to buy Calvin and Hobbes material, he isn't doing a very good job of it.

u/scrapinpeg · 4 pointsr/comics

It's less expensive here, and anyway printing them out would cost WAY more in printer ink & paper.

u/blaineT · 3 pointsr/AskReddit

Calvin & Hobbes!

I'm just actually waiting to buy this myself, it has been sitting alone in an Amazon cart for weeks ><

u/spindrjr · 3 pointsr/bookshelf

The hardcover set is actually quite cheap now, at $83.51 on Amazon

u/ontopic · 3 pointsr/shittyaskscience

The literature indicates tuna sandwiches and smooching, mostly.

u/CJGibson · 3 pointsr/comicbooks

This isn't the first volume of The Complete Calvin and Hobbes.

I don't think they sell those three volumes separately.

u/xopj · 3 pointsr/calvinandhobbes

I saw it on sale at a Barnes and noble back in January for around $150 I think? I was going to get it but held out thinking I'd do it some other time. Now it's back up to over $200... I haven't chec... oooo it appears to only be $100 on Amazon if this really is the full set (doesn't show the box view to clarify it) : http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Calvin-Hobbes-v/dp/0740748475/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1304095840&sr=8-1

u/pearly93 · 3 pointsr/nostalgia

Memorieeeeeeeeees. I bought the C & H Complete Collection as soon as it came out and recently crocheted a stuffed Hobbes (as he appears to everyone buy Calvin) for my friend. I love that it's still awesome and on different levels than when I read it as a kid...when it was also awesome!

u/ooryl2 · 3 pointsr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

My dream is The Complete Calvin and Hobbes Box Set (I'd say a new bed, but that wouldn't be very reasonable heh). I grew up adoring C&H, had my own Transmogrifier and played Calvin Ball with my friends. I had most of the books when I was a kid, but my mom got rid of them when I left for college. I've always wanted to get this set so I could enjoy that moment of my childhood once again!

For my C'mon...gimme $20 or under I'll present Smash Up Awesome Level 9000 Expansion Kids really want to be able to play as the Plants combined with the Zombies!

Love your contests, you are some great people who look very very nice today!

u/piperandcharlie · 3 pointsr/AskWomen

SO bought me the Complete Calvin and Hobbes collection. Love that boy.

Also, I still watch Arthur on TV whenever I catch it.

u/SamHealer · 2 pointsr/AskReddit

The Complete Calvin and Hobbes. My god is it amazingly heavy.

u/istheelavatorworthy · 2 pointsr/ADHD

the set on Amazon

My cousin got the paperback ones for his birthday a few years back. A family friend has the hardcovers and loves them.

u/Joebranflakes · 2 pointsr/pics

Far Side Collection @ Amazon.com

Calvin and Hobbes Collection @ Amazon.com

Worth every penny.

u/flipping_gosh · 2 pointsr/calvinandhobbes

I don't think so, I purchased them from the official Bill Watterson amazon seller.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0740748475/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

u/bricardo · 2 pointsr/books

Is it this one? I've been thinking about it for a while and amazon had it cheaper than it is now. Should have bought it.

u/StochasticOoze · 2 pointsr/books

Well, it's the title of the first collection, but I'm guessing people mostly meant the strip in general. There is a complete collection of Calvin and Hobbes strips that you can get for just under $100 if you're interested.

u/MistyMountainHop · 2 pointsr/comics

God damn it, Amazon!

u/ENM173 · 2 pointsr/calvinandhobbes

If you're willing to put in a decent chunk of cash, I'd suggest getting The Complete Calvin and Hobbes Collection. Otherwise, I'd suggest going with "The Essential Calvin and Hobbes." I seem to remember that one being my favorite book growing up.

u/maastokuvio · 2 pointsr/pics

If you're not lucky enough to have those in your garage, buy this.
http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Calvin-Hobbes-v/dp/0740748475/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1299748839&sr=8-1

Seriously, just buy it. No excuse is good enough.

u/addressunknown · 2 pointsr/books

and there's always the Complete Calvin and Hobbes, which has every C&H ever published. if you can afford it, that is

u/Gangringo · 2 pointsr/pics

I wish I had those, I have the super-fancy archival quality three volume set here but I'm always afraid to open them. I wish I still had my oversized paperback books with the creased covers and occasional half-colored comic.

u/Optimash_Prime · 2 pointsr/AskReddit

My shopping list
this, this, this, and a couple of xbox 360, ps3, and wii laptops from this man

u/jeblis · 2 pointsr/pics

You must be new to the internet.

u/CruduxCruo · 2 pointsr/AskReddit

Check this out:
Complete Calvin and Hobbes

It is easily 20 lbs and contains every single comic and all the extras that were in the collections (poems, water colours , etc). I got it last year, it is fantastic.

u/SpruceCaboose · 2 pointsr/funny

Go here and purchase that collection. You will not be disappointed.

Or if you are impatient, Barnes and Noble and other bookseller chains carry C&H books (along with many comic strip collections) in their humor sections.

u/Squingle · 2 pointsr/AskReddit

ALL OF THEM. But my personal favorite is Homicidal Psycho Jungle Cat.

u/subarctic_guy · 2 pointsr/picrequests

here you go.

if he doesn't have it, the Complete box set would make any fan delirious with joy. ;p
seriously: spend some time reading them though - it will make your life better. It's also the only comic that has brought me to tears and then on the next page almost killed me by making me literally choke with laughter.

u/Modevs · 2 pointsr/pics

Lottery? It's only like $60.

u/Joeboxr · 1 pointr/funny

Buying this was a good decision: http://amzn.com/0740748475

u/zouhair · 1 pointr/reddit.com

I would like to get it, but reading some comments in Amazon I am concerned about the quality of the bindings.

Any ideas?

ISBN tells that this is a hardcover edition. If yes, decent deal.

u/walleyrund · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

That would have to be The Complete Calvin and Hobbes, but that's way too much money to openly ask for. Even the $5 items on my list are greatly appreciated.

Calvin and Hobbes meant so much to me growing up. I was a weird, isolated kid. Bill Waterson's way of seeing the world indelibly affected my own.

u/hmmbop · 1 pointr/comics

I don't want to sound like a Sales Rep here but if you haven't bought the complete collection you should do so immediately.

u/mapoftasmania · 1 pointr/pics

Or just plunge in with The Complete Calvin and Hobbes.

u/swordgeek · 1 pointr/canada

Every time you think you have a good deal on .ca, look it up on .com. It'll be cheaper, probably a lot.

u/royrwood · 1 pointr/AskReddit

The complete Calvin and Hobbes, hardcover, box-set.


Or how about a big print to hang up? The demotivational posters at ThinkGeek are all pretty great. Or for something a little deeper, I've always liked this one, given how totally human it is (plus the artwork she does is amazing).


P.S. You sound like an awesome gf for doing this kind of research.

u/SoSp · 1 pointr/greece

Αυτο :P


But no seriously.

Ενα, δυο, τρια

Εχω και πολλα πολλα αλλα στη wishlist μου, αλλα αυτα για αρχη.

u/abesch2 · 1 pointr/calvinandhobbes

Here! I've got the same one. Really awesome!

u/heresybob · 1 pointr/scifi
I diagnose you with Rectum Interruptus, more commonly known as "you have a stick up your ass." I wrote specifically "ending debacle" and added a smiley face.

"Ending debacle" implies not only a bad ending but the fans response. The smiley face implies humor, which you obviously need more of.

Dr. Bob prescribes the complete Calvin and Hobbes Collection and a Stuffed Tiger.

u/Regit394 · 1 pointr/calvinandhobbes

Looks like there's some different options (Used and paperback aren't too pricey!)

u/scornflake · 1 pointr/funny

I think amazon

u/sqdrn · 1 pointr/AskReddit

Yes, yes I believe you are. Purchase immediately.

u/jull1234 · 1 pointr/AskReddit

Just Do It. You won't regret it.

u/viligante8 · 1 pointr/pics

I've never seen Yukon Ho!... I must have it, Although I do have this, there's something awesome about having the originals.

^^You ^^mean ^^like ^^this ^^complete ^^collection?

u/dizmog · 1 pointr/pics

You can get it here. I got this for my sister several Christmases ago and selfishly regret not keeping them for myself.

I still have all the individual books from my childhood Waldenbooks sales but this is the classiest set of any comic strip I've ever seen.

u/marxychick1 · 1 pointr/nostalgia

I bought all of those and a couple more at a friend's garage sale. I can't remember the price, but it was stupid cheap. She had just gotten this. Now the ones I got are my daughter's.

u/mushpuppy · 1 pointr/scifi

84's about when it stopped being funny.

Interesting, too, because if you compare it to Calvin and Hobbes you see who the real artist was. One sold out and plastered the image of his cartoon on everything. The other simply retired and let his work speak for itself.

u/Mozno1 · 0 pointsr/pics

Calvin and Hobbes... Every child should have this!

Nice work /u/Ravens23.

An old friend of mine recently had a heart attack and was off work hospitalized for a couple of months. He shares my love so i got him this:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Complete-Calvin-Hobbes-v/dp/0740748475/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=

Needless to say, he loved it at 55 just as much as he did a 7!

u/ironmanthing · 0 pointsr/pics

good...good...do you have this? http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Calvin-Hobbes-v/dp/0740748475
if not it's the best although it's rather heavy...i'll try to pick a picture I would want you to do for me...

u/idsimon · -4 pointsr/pics

If you don't have one of these yet then you're not a true fan.
