C+H, Doonesbury, Bloom County, Peanuts, Dick Tracy, Terry and the Pirates, Gasoline Alley, Prince Valiant and perhaps Funky Winkerbean are considered /lit/ by the literary world. Probably more than Tolkien or Stephen King.

It's funny, a lot of the art is wonderful, and it's heartfelt without being sentimental (for the most part, anyway). Basically, it's the opposite of the creepy, smarmy, commercial gibberish you seen in comics like "Family Circus."

It's comfy and thought provoking in a a very innocuous way. I know reps and dems that both equally love Calvin and Hobbes.
