I also miss Calvin & Hobbes. One of the truly great comics. I admire his willingness to stop before it got stale, though. I would hate to have seen it turn into Peanuts. For about the first five years Peanuts was really fantastic and was pretty good for a while after that. It became awful long before he quit doing it. For some reason the ones that still run in the papers are the awful ones from the later years. That won't happen with Calvin & Hobbes or, so it seems, Foxtrot (which I also think is quite good).
