Happy and safe travels! Where are you pulling material from? I could try bridging the gap if you want.

Go for it friend! gocomics.com is where I base the daily comic on. I’ll be back on 10/03/23.

I am forcing myself to relax on my honeymoon! I’m sure the community will make it until I return!

Ok, I’ll try to keep things going while you’re gone. Enjoy the trip and the time with your special someone!

When is the first day you’re going to be gone?

Magazine

Calvin and Hobbes

@CalvinAndHobbes@kbin.social

Quoting wikipedia, "Calvin and Hobbes is a daily American comic strip created by cartoonist Bill Watterson that was syndicated from November 18, 1985 to December 31, 1995. Commonly cited as "the last great newspaper comic", Calvin and Hobbes has enjoyed broad and enduring popularity, influence, academic and philosophical interest”.

This magazine celebrates this superb comic strip which is filled with imagination and humor.

DAILY POSTING INFO:
The daily strips I post (I being the mod SpacemanSpiff), are posted on the (approximate) date they appeared 20 years ago (2023 = originally published in 1993). The date isn’t precise because the days of the week aren’t the same, so in order to post the Sunday strips on Sunday I need to adjust either forward or backward a few days depending on the year.

STORY ARCS:
If the currently running daily’s don’t have a story arc going, I like to supplement my daily posting with an arc chosen from anywhere in the strip’s entire library. I usually try to make the title fun as if you’re following a serial installment in an actual magazine.

I’m always open to suggestions for improvement. Welcome! And I hope you enjoy! :)

Rules

Don't post pictures of books.
Unless you want to post pictures of unique books (e.g. autographed ones), please refrain from posting pictures of the usual books.
No merchandise selling or advertising.
Please don't try to make money with C&H merchandise or help others to do so. Bill Watterson battled against pressure from publishers to merchandise his work. He felt that would cheapen his comic. We respect that.
No NSFW
This is a community for a comic strip. Although most readers are adult, we want this community to be safe for children. So, no NSFW posts and try to reduce swearing in comments as far as possible.
Use a descriptive title.
"This is funny" or "My birthday comic" is too generic. Simply stating something about the strip you shared, or repeating phrasing from the strip is enough!
No posts that are not in sprit of Calvin and Hobbes Comics or would be appreciable by Bill Watterson. This means fan art in the spirit of is ok, Calvin pissing on things is not.
Single panels should be meaningful by itself. Single panels are allowed as far as they are meaningful by itself and are a whole panel. Of course single panel strips can be modified ones too which in turn would be subjected to the above mentioned rules.
