I don’t know if it’s news to anybody else but me, but I’m really excited about this upcoming release of [The Complete Calvin & Hobbes](http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0740748475/ref=amb_right-2_95674701_3/002-5470385-8681615) .

So does anybody know if this is the full and unabridged version of Waterson’s strip? Every frame ever published?

'Cuz I loves me some C&H. That kid is my hero and alter ego. 😉

It feels like I have been waiting on this forever!!

Not sure if it has every frame ever published, but it will be a good replacement for all those paperback books that I wore out/loaned out and never got back when I was a teenager. And it “weighs as much as a tombstone”. _Cool_!!!

That sucker is definately going on my christmas list. Then I’ll pass all my tattered, dog-eared, bathwater-stained paperback copies down to my son, since he’s the one who did most of the tattering, dog-earing, and bath-water staining in the first place.
