Source<\/a>: Calvin & Hobbes <\/em>creator, Bill Watterson, comes out of retirement to produce an illustrated book for grown-ups<\/span><\/p>\n Honestly, despite the accusations of the announcement lacking substance or any real hints at what the nature of this future work is going to be like, I don\u2019t really need it.\u00a0 Calvin & Hobbes has had such a profound influence on my life as a whole, you could tell me that Bill Watterson was coming out of retirement to produce a book on growing garlic, I\u2019d still be interested, and anticipate there being some sage wisdom in it.<\/span><\/p>\n I don\u2019t even care that Watterson isn\u2019t even the artist in this book, I know he\u2019s a legend already artistically, but he\u2019s also a masterful storyteller.\u00a0 Seriously, I believe it\u2019s possible to remove all artwork and just leave the text throughout all of Calvin & Hobbes, and it would still be interesting.\u00a0 I look forward to the return of Watterson in The Mysteries<\/em>, and it\u2019s definitely not something I would have ever imagined, being taken back to 1995, anticipating his next release, only to be devastated in knowing that it was going to be his last.<\/span><\/p>\n Either way, it\u2019s something to genuinely look forward to this year, and much like I do with film and television I really look forward to, I\u2019m going to do my best to avoid anything about it until it\u2019s actually released.\u00a0 It\u2019s surreal to think that after finishing Calvin & Hobbes back in 1995, I\u2019ll be reacquainted with his work again nearly 30 years later.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Source: Calvin & Hobbes creator, Bill Watterson, comes out of retirement to produce an illustrated book for grown-ups Honestly, despite the accusations of the announcement lacking substance or any real hints at what the nature of this future work is going to be like, I don\u2019t really need it.\u00a0 Calvin & Hobbes has had such … Continue reading Whatever it is, I\u2019m all in<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[74,140,129,99],"class_list":["post-49225","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-brog","tag-books","tag-comics","tag-nostalgia","tag-reminiscing"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/49225","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=49225"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/49225\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":49227,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/49225\/revisions\/49227"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=49225"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=49225"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=49225"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
