Nice, got it about a year ago for a little cheaper from Amazon and it was worth it. This price was worth it, too.

Not a bad deal, looks like it's mostly been sitting around $90 on Amazon for the last few year or so.

@tommytom02:

Same for me -- but that required a 30% off coupon. Happens a few times a year....the most recent 25-30% coupons happened just before Christmas.

Not a bad price if you'd like the set now...well worth it IMHO.

Edit: 15% off coupon A8N7K7X puts it at $78 + tax. Free shipping if you want to sign up for a free trial membership with BN of some sort of supreme membership.

I would love to have this but I read a lot of bad reviews on poor binding and the fact that they censored/changed a lot of the original comics when putting them in this compilation.

But I doubt there will ever be a remake of this

I miss these guys too! Didn't someone post a link to some new Calvin and Hobbes comics that someone was making?

@devexityspace: I hadn't heard they'd changed it. I'll be disappointed if it's true.

Picked it up during a Black Friday lightning deal on Amazon for about $70. It was my Christmas present to myself. Already had all the books, but I'd been wanting this since they first published it. I was surprised by how heavy it is, I'd say 20+ pounds!

@devexityspace: My binding has held up fine, but I got a first printing. Maybe there was a bad batch?

Also, I think only one or two of the comics were altered a bit, and the changes were done by Watterson himself so they're not "censored". The only one I can recall ended with Calvin's mom originally saying "kid, anyone but your biological mother would've sent you to the wolves a long time ago", and he felt that was insensitive to adopted children.

@dmaz:

You're looking for Calvin & Hobbes & Bacon I think...
http://www.thehighdefinite.com/2011/05/calvin-hobbes-bacon/

Search google for 'Calvin and hobbes mashups' and you'll find examples of how other artists might envision the duo.

Great comics, hilarious and comforting all at the same time.

The Muppets, Dr Suess and Calvin. Learned more from that trio than anything else in my life.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
