Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Bill Watterson's Calvin and Hobbes is one of the most beloved comics in history, depicting the adventures of imaginative kid Calvin and his imaginary friend Hobbes the tiger. However, while the sweet-natured, endlessly imaginative strip deserves plaudits for its insightful take on childhood, it should also be celebrated for the high quality of its art.
10 Christmas Eve Even Without Any 'Tricks,' Watterson's Art Is Amazing It's important to begin by acknowledging how impressive Watterson's Calvin and Hobbes art is even when it's not doing anything unusual. This Christmas comic expands the strip to a single panel and shows the title characters napping by the fire.

5 Neo-Cubist Calvin and Hobbes Will Do Anything for a Gag In another situation where Watterson does something new and exciting just because it helps sell a joke, Calvin's world breaks down into a "Neo-Cubist" wonderland as he attempts to see his dad's side of an argument. While Calvin and Hobbes definitely sympathizes with Calvin's parents, the art is often used to drive home his perspective.
The strip also showcases a common trick of Watterson's that's also in the 'Neo-Cubist' comic - Calvin's big, emotional adventures end up contrasted by a small panel when he goes back to report to his parents, contrasting the scale and emotion of childhood struggles with the experience of putting them into context with some familial help. Calvin's world would be pretty scary if it was always like the comic's first ten panels, but thankfully that's not the case.
