    I was going though my bookshelf last night when I found my old Calvin & Hobbes collection (yeah, I have most of them :) Guess what I end up doing all night? I may be 28 (ugh!) but I still read comics and play with my LEGO Mindstorm once in a while (there, I admitted it). What about you guys, still reading comics? .Henrik Wonder what happened to Bill Watterson?

      Calvin & Hobbes are definatly at the top of my list, I realy got to get miself a transmogrifier ;) I also really like Footrot Flats its a New Zealand comic about a sheep farmer and his dog. > Wonder what happened to Bill Watterson? He retired a while back, not sure what he's up to now. It's a pitty he did, I would have loved a few more books.

            I am old, but that does not mean humor has no place in my life! I can always turn to stories in Time, Fortune, etc., for a feed nowdays!! :) Seriously, I always end up looking at the comics pages of newspapers first. :-D ------- Nature, to be commanded, must be obeyed.

                  I really like "Mortadelo y Filemón" too (Flip & Flop in danish). To bad that so few of them are available outside Spain :-( Christian Skovdal Andersen

                    > Wonder what happened to Bill Watterson? You know? www.calvinandhobbes.com? Also, there is a book where he tells that and why he quit (www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0785791639). See me: www.magerquark.de

                      I thought you meant Batman &tc. I *love* C&H, Dilbert and Asterix. Couldn't get by without my copy of the Dilbert Future by the bed. Especially the chapter on why the future won't be like Star Trek. Christian #include "std_disclaimer.h"

                        TinTin is the best in my view. You can get loads of TinTin memerobilia, but the problem is they are sooooooo expensive unless you live in France or Belgium.

                          Dunno if in all languages, but in the English versions the Latin spoken by people such as the Pirates or Romans is rather adult, the type of language you don't expect from a kiddies book! I don't have a link to the translations, but they are freely avaiable on the internet, and are very funny.
