- ChrisRR 4y agoHow do you manage to find a single comic strip out of thousands from thirty years ago?
- shrikant 4y agoThe wording from some comics get burned into your brain, and then you can just search for the text. For e.g., this one is the first result for "calvin hobbes everyone has his price" https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=calvin+hobbes+everyone+has+his+price https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=calvin+hobbes+everyone+has...
- a_e_k 4y agoThat's exactly how I did it. I grew up reading C&H, owned all the books, etc., and some of them really just stuck with me like that one. A simple Google search exactly like above was sufficient in this case, but there's also a C&H-specific search engine which has been discussed on HN a few times before: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1600211 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1600211 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26119380 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26119380 The official publisher for C&H can also search them (though it also finds matches in other comics they publish), e.g.: https://www.gocomics.com/search/results?utf8=%E2%9C%93&terms=%22everyone+has+his+price%22 https://www.gocomics.com/search/results?utf8=%E2%9C%93&terms...
