    Me too.
    I'm glad you didn't get one of him pissing on something. Love the original spirit of Calvin & Hobbes, as in your tattoo. One of the best cartoons.

    Nice artwork Larry!
    One of my all-time favorite comics, still makes me laugh to this day.
    We still reference Calvinball when we speak about management at work...
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    Calvin was always one of my favorites, I would never get a tattoo of of him pissing on anything... Bill W hated that his work became that, and didn't want Calvin to be remembered that way..

    Calvin and Hobbes is the best. I agree with those of you who don't like the "pissing" Calvin. Very classless IMO.

    Like BlueFox, I'm not really a tattoo guy, but that one's pretty cool.

    I was a big C&H fan as a kid and somehow, these books have stayed with me.

    I didn't know that about Watterson, but it is safe to assume that he was one at some point. I reckon he got much of his material thus.

    :)

    PS Just Googled him & saw that his birthday was last week.
