Someone tracked him down after a while and he finally did an interview.
IIRC when asked about how he felt about C&H he said "That was the work of a younger man."
I suspect his take on using the self publish route would be.. interesting.
- mattm 14y agoJust came across this interview - http://www.cleveland.com/living/index.ssf/2010/02/bill_watterson_creator_of_belo.html http://www.cleveland.com/living/index.ssf/2010/02/bill_watte... where he said "I've never regretted stopping when I did." However, I seem to remember from his 10th anniversary book, that the main reason for stopping was all the conflict and grief from dealing with the syndicate, not the content of the work. He had even taken a sabbatical at one point near the end of the strip because the stress had been too much. I guess I just like thinking about alternate realities. Even in a world where he self-published and had full control, it's still possible he may have discontinued the comic after 10 years. Maybe the time was just right no matter what.
