I admire very few people as much as I do Bill Watterson. He had a major part in my childhood as I tore through each and every one of his books, read the 10th anniversary and all its commentary at least a dozen times and still find myself opening my entire collection on occasion when I stumble across them in my "box of stuff I hope to one day pass my kid." I remember checking "Homicidal Psycho Jungle Cat" from our school library in 5th grade only to have my dog chew the cover. I was secretly so happy because it meant I got to keep the book (while my parents were stuck paying for it). The guy has stuck so clearly to his principles when he was surely presented multiple opportunities to make far more money licensing his product. I cringe every time I see a poor unlicensed Calvin relieving himself on various truck logos, I can't imagine Watterson is a fan of that. I have zero qualms with artists making money off something they create (duh), but it is refreshing when a Watterson comes along and makes a clear choice to keep his creation untouched by anyone other than himself. All that to say, can't wait to read this.
