Looking for Calvin and Hobbes: The Unconventional Story of Bill Watterson and His Revolutionary Comic Strip by Nevin Martell

3.0

I liked the book because it brought back great memories of great strips, but the very premise of the book is the quest to talk to a man who, quite simply, does NOT WANT TO BE TALKED TO. There's a part of me that is interested in the backstory, the family life, the influences and those he's influenced, and this serves as a compendium of such.

That this book does well. But Bill Watterson has moved on and, rightly or wrongly, has decided not to be a public figure, and you have to respect that.
