calvin and hobbes is arguably one of my favorite comic strips of all time.  so much so that i bought the box set of the entire collection (which was supposedly one of the heaviest books on the new york times best-seller list).  basically, it's a set of three coffee table books containing ten year's worth of comics.  who wouldn't love this?

i decided it was time to reread this collection, and now i'm remembering why i've always thought this comic was so fantastic.  case in point, the january 8, 1986 strip:

clearly, this is an awesome view of things, and it's an afterlife i wouldn't mind for myself.


incidentally, there's a calvin and hobbes search engine out there that will let you do a keyword search on the comics.  pretty much awesome.
