The available review praises Bill Watterson's Calvin and Hobbes for exceptional drawing and imaginative comedy. The strip is described as philosophically rich and appealing to children, teenagers and adults. Characters and imaginative sequences (Spaceman Spiff, Stupendous Man, Hobbes) are highlighted as memorable.

For:Fans of comics and cartooning; adults who enjoy philosophical humor; teenagers and children who like imaginative strips.

  «The drawing in a comic strip is infinitely more important than one might think, because our medium has to compete with other forms of entertainment, and if a cartoonist can only illustrate a joke, then they have lost from the start. "Calvin and Hobbes", in any case, contains comedic images that cannot be reproduced in other media. In short, it's fun to look at, and that's what has made Bill's work a great success.»
