= Mind Blown!
A few months ago it was reported that the creator of Calvin & Hobbes, Bill Watterson, had created a movie poster for Stripped, his first work in many, many years.
Today, that same site, Sploid, reported that Watterson has now worked with Stephen Pastis, creator of Pearls Before Swine, on a few panels for his daily comic strip. Over on Pastis’ blog, he chronicles how the collaboration came to be. Its a great read and like I would have been, he tells how he was in constant fear of chasing Watterson away at every step.
Now if we could just get Mr. Watterson to realize just how amazing he is, both as an artist and a teller of tales, and bring him back to, if not a daily strip, maybe a weekly one?
One can dream can one?
Footnote: Apparently all this attention has brought the GoComics page to, if not a standstill, a slow crawl. I could not get the page for Pearls to load. Guess that tells you how big this is…
