Don't those bad spines with glued bindings?

Glued bindings are pretty good these days so it doesn't matter.

I truly admire and respect Wattersons integrity and what he was about. He set a great example for creators to follow.

When they originally came out they were glued. They switched over to sown later on. I bought my set about 2 years ago and its sown.

I guess I'll take extra caution to tell my wife that her hair dryers can never come out of the bathroom.

what are some other comics outside of C&H worth reading?

[Anonymous No.21341637]

>>21341606
The Far Side
Feiffer
Foxtrot, kinda, at least the early stuff

>The Far Side
based, but i've already read it
>Feiffer
haven't heard of this yet, which comics from this magazine are worth reading? all of them? if so, which are the best?
>Foxtrot
already knew about this one, but it didn't look like it's worth reading, what makes you think otherwise?

[Anonymous No.21341918]

>>21341606
don't read Foxtrot. maybe the very early ones are tolerable but it is not a good strip at all. everything in it is a pop culture joke.
if you want a comic strip with the Watterson Seal of Approval try Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson.

[Anonymous No.21341926]

>>21341918
it looks interesting, i'll check the comic out

[Anonymous No.21341930]

>>21341926
Watterson wrote the foreword to the first Cul de Sac book and even drew a Calvin sketch for charity to support Richard Thompson's fight with Parkinson's.

[Anonymous No.21341950]

>>21341657
Feiffer was the strip Jules Feiffer wrote for the Village Voice for like 40 years. Really highbrow satire that leans left but punches left and right. It's a neat time capsule of political culture of the 60s through the 90s. Think Doonesbury but less smug.
As far as Foxtrot, I just thought it had surprisingly fleshed-out characters with interesting story arcs. At least, until Bill Amend swerved hard into pop culture nerd shit and crowded out all the other characters in favor of Jason liking Star Wars for like five years straight.

[Anonymous No.21341990]
