Overview
What happens when bath time becomes a Yukon expedition—or school avoidance turns into interplanetary travel?
The Authoritative Calvin and Hobbes is a must-have treasury for fans of Bill Watterson’s legendary comic strip. This large-format volume collects every strip from Yukon Ho! and Weirdos from Another Planet! (spanning May 24, 1987 to December 4, 1988), including both black-and-white dailies and full-color Sundays. It also features a full-color story unique to this collection.
