Calvin and Hobbes pulled off DEATH? When?! I thought I'd read most of the comics, or maybe I'm just forgetting something. *googles*acosn said:There's a reason most comics will never, ever approach the issue of death. Honestly the only comic that ever managed to pull it off was Calvin and Hobbes.
Yeah- Calvin found a bird or something and tried to nurse it back to health but failed. Its odd that the comic with a kid for the protagonist is the most mature comic I've ever read.Crazzee said:Calvin and Hobbes pulled off DEATH? When?!
