Calvin and Hobbes creator Bill Waterson suddenly quit many decades ago and ended his strip abruptly because he felt like it and the rejection of this mans work dejected so many Calvin and Hobbes newspaper comic fans and in reality the comic industry for newspapers has never been the same. Bil Waterson is a hermit reclusive who didn't even like his work to appear anywhere and the selfishness of this guy is amazing as according to our sources he continued to make comics and do Calvin and Hobbes material following his retirement in 1995.
We hear that either Bill Waterson offers these strips on-line for the super wealthy to purchase secretly with a subscription rate of a grand a day or we hear wild Bill just does these new comic strips of Calvin and his stuffed tiger for his own personal enjoyment and amusement.
However, there is some hope as we hear Bill Waterson enjoys the Philadelphia Phillies fanatic fan comic strip and he is eyeing the rights and possible to borrow the idea in some way for himself and collaboration with Major League Baseball. He might do a strip featuring a mascot and a kid for the Detroit Tigers on eve of another 165 game baseball season where the Tigers will most probably suck ass again. Bill Waterson has a bunch of great Calvin and Hobbes comic strips post 1995 that he is not willing to share and will keep it in his family heirloom for his great great grandson to sell and make a fortune but make no mistake he is getting edgy and wishing for a return to the Sunday funnies and for the love of mascot and baseball may be the only way to get this clown back to comics
