In the Comic Category, I chose Attack of the Deranged Mutant Killer Monster Snow Goons - Bill Watterson
I REALLY wanted to pick the The Complete Calvin and Hobbes (which sits proudly on my bookshelf) but couldn't do it after questioning FanIn80's pick, and besides, if someone wants to pick more C&H books, I'm all for that.
Like many, something about C&H resonates with me. I've had some of the same cartoons tacked on the wall of my cubicle for almost a decade, and whenther it is Calvin's dad saying "The WORLD isn't fair, Calvin", "Tuesdays don't start out much worse than this", or "Somehow I imagined this experience would be more rewarding"; I can always seem to find a strip that echoes my sentiments. But the snowmen strips are always hilarious.
