Here is what people are saying about the Scientific Progress Goes 'Boink': A Calvin and Hobbes Collection
2 Star Rating  "Calvin & Hobbes"2009-05-25
- Reviewed By User: A2F771O1VT916G
I was disappointed with the book. The seller said it was in great condition. It wreaked of oldness! It seriously stinks so bad, literally. I am guessing it has sat in someone's basement or attic for ages. Gross!
 
5 Star Rating  "Why is it good? Because it works."2009-01-29

This sixth installment of the "Calvin and Hobbes" series is as great as "Yukon Ho!" and "Weirdos from Another Planet". Here we get to see more of Calvin's adventures as Spiff, Stupendous Man, and the debut of Tracer Bullet. I especially like the three-week long sequence in which Calvin walks upside down, and then grows bigger every second! Then, there's the famous duplicate sequence, in which Calvin duplicates himself, which is a lot of fun to read repeatedly.

This is one of two comic (the other being "Garfield") that I'll always enjoy reading.

The book arrived quickly, was reasonably priced, and was in great shape. My son loves Calvin and Hobbes! He really enjoyed it and I enjoyed not worrying about finding the right gift. It was the exact book described in the ad so I was sure he didn't have that one and the condition was excellent.

Thank you very much

5 Star Rating  "Wickedly funny comic strip"2006-11-18
- Reviewed By User: A3DXVAI08P00HD
Calvin and Hobbes is one of my favourite cartoon series, and it is one of the few which can be equally enjoyed by adults and children alike.

Bill Watterson has a M.A. in Political Science, which suggests the reason for the names of the main characters. Calvin is of course named after John Calvin, the Reformed theologian who advocated Predestination, and Thomas Hobbes, the English Political Philosopher Thomas Hobbes who argued for 'The War of all against All' in his social contract theory.

Calvin is a somewhat dysfunctional six year old who is a constant headache to his parents, babysitters, teachers, and classmates. Calvin seems to embody several classic types of rebellious children in one character. Addicted to TV, hating girls, engaging in games which destroy the family home and engaging in wonderful fantasies make many of the high points of the series, which are darkly funny and often have a deeper satirical message about our world to the adult reader. To the younger reader, they no doubt will be delighted when Calvin makes his own time machine, goes back to the dinosaur age or becomes 'Spaceman Spiff' who fights evil aliens, or the 'Get Rid of Slimy Girls' Club Calvin forms with Hobbes.

This is a delightful comic to own and enjoy, for adults and children alike.
 
5 Star Rating  "Hysterical and bittersweet"2006-04-25
- Reviewed By wwwmarklaflammecom
When you get right down to it, is there anything better than Calvin & Hobbes? In this compilation or any of the others, you get lessons in quantum physics, nostalgic looks at the agony of grade school, observations in human nature, and a bit of the "thing under the bed" style horror. All this and you'll laugh yourself to the point of wetting your pants.
The Calvin & Hobbes strips are hysterical. But beyond that, they are poignant and often bittersweet, reminding us of the children we once were and of the rich fantasies that come with childhood.
Behold Calvin, utterly impish and wise-beyond-his years. His snowmen displays, at times morbid at times downright surreal, could fill a collection of its own.
Calvin fancies himself the smartest boy in the world. And who can argue with him, other than his long-suffering parents and his faithful friend Hobbes, a tiger who may or may not be real.
Hobbes is the pentultimate friend. He is Calvin's confidante and his patient ear, but he is also the first to pounce on the boy or to challenge his sordid views of the world. Together, the pair ponder the meaning of life, question the adult world, or sneak off to explore the fascinating landscapes of childhood found under dead logs or under rocks.
If I were banished to a small island with only scant supplies to get me through my days, this book would be among the items in my trunk. I have had this collection for ten years or more and I've gone through it a dozen times. I'll go through it a dozen more before it's battered to the point of unreadable.
Watterson is an absolute genius. But as you fall into the world of Calvin & Hobbes, you'll forget that they were created by a mere man at all.
