Bite-sized review:
The design is really easy to follow. The art looks updated
and feels like its from a brand new newspaper. The layout is divided by date starting
with its very first strip and ending with its last strip (sadly, but all good
things do come to an end). The Sunday strips are full paged, colored and presents
more of Calvin’s amazing imagination. The series touches on many topics
such as public education, the environment, and, to an extent, politics and how
flawed it is. The comics even delve into philosophical questions that can keep
the reader pondering the answer long after we’ve read the strip.
The Complete Collection is long, with a total of four books,
and though it seems like a tedious task to read them all, it’s worth it in the
end. You will laugh at the satire and even be surprised that strips made around
twenty or even thirty years ago can still be relevant to this day. Besides,
reading stories of an awesome kid who has a tiger for a friend is pretty cool!
All in all, I would totally recommend this collection. It
gets a 5/5 and I highly recommended for anyone who reads comics and likes comic
strips. The art style doesn’t need to be over the top like modern comics to
impress you and the story will have you hooked till the end.
