Opted for the paperback myself which I don't do but it seemed more fitting for the material and I don't regret it. These are extremely high quality paperbacks with very nice heavy duty glossy pages, well-bound and with beautiful illustrations. Haven't checked the others yet but the first one has a really illuminating 20-page preface by Watterson explaining his life and how he ended up doing C&H and early, unpublished works and also pictures of his cat.

He edited a strip about Calvin asking his mom if he's adopted to being about being a test tube baby because later on he adopted a kid irl. Literally unreadable
I got all these from the Scholastic catalog at school and lost them all (not my pic)

Honestly these books are the entire serialization like twice over. A bunch of stuff got reprinted in different aspect ratios and color/b&w. Bottom right is the book version of an exhibition that they did with some of his commentary

In the preface he talks about how he moved out west to bumfrick nowhere and changed all his contact info and stuff because people seeing his work and recognizing him unnerved him and he liked to imagine he was just doing the strip to entertain his wife

He won at life. Do exactly what he wants professionally for a few years, make his artistic statement, get filthy rich, frick off out of the spotlight, syndication neetbux roll in and do whatever, whenever. All well earned honestly
