    Calvin and Hobbes was basically the only newspaper comic that was any good and still holds up.

      I was partially to a few others, but C&H was really good the entire run. I think Bill was really smart to stop when he did.

        I also love Beule by David Gilbert at Carlsen. It nearly always made me go aww and smile reading a strip of it in the newspaper.

        That said, I can’t recommend binge-reading it, it loses its charm that way.

        Beule is the German name. I wasn’t able to find out how it’s called in any other language, even though it being published by Carlsen implies German is probably not the original language (I primarily associate Carlsen with Spirou/Gaston by Hergé, who is francophone Belgian, iirc)

        Edit: it’s -> its

        You’re absolutely right. Far side and Calvin and Hobbes.

        Garfield is overrated ass.
