118. Why would anyone hate Watterson? And what is it you disagree with him about?
I hate what Garfield stands for. It's still funny half the time and all, and watching the cartoon was a part of my childhood, but I hate the fact that Davison doesn't even write or draw the thing anymore, that he just basically delibrately created something that could be a merchandising industry for him to rake in on. I like the strip on it's own, but when I remember everything that goes on behind the scenes, I get a bad taste in my mouth.

While it would be nice to have a little Calvin&Hobbes merchandise, I do kind of like the "purity" of it being comics, just comics, just art and thoughts that Watterson did until he didn't want to anymore.
Also, they older I get, the more I appreciate his amazing artistic talent.


155. I can understand not feeling ashamed, but not understanding why other people hate it? Really. It doesn't seem that outlandish to me that a lot of folks might find steamy, gratuitious stories detailing a (usually) homosexual sex-life of (usually) heterosexual real people a wee bit creepy.
Even if it's not about teh sexy sex, the whole concept of writing about the wacky adventures of people that you do not know, but who are real and have lives and feelings and loved ones, kind of weirds me out. But once you add the sex, it becomes...voyueristic, I guess. Almost invasive. I know you're not technically invading their personal lives, that it's all made up, but I'd think a lot of famous people would be a little disturbed to find stories about them screwing their best friend or fellow cast/band member.

Just saying. Like what you like, but I can't understand that you can't understand that a lot of people will be squicked.

This says it way better than I could. That's exactly why I find it so creepy. It's like treating real people like a character.

I second this—do people hate Watterson because he dislikes the idea of having his characters slapped onto t-shirts and bumper stickers? That's so silly. The man's an amazing talent, and he should be able to decide what to do with his creation just like Jim Davis was able to decide what to do with his.

Well, he hates graphic novels/comic books (saying they were too violent or something else dumb like that), according to that quote of his that was explored in a previous F!S, which seems pretty dumb for someone who made a living off of the comic medium/visual storytelling.

Heh, you're right, that's a bit rich coming from him. He is allowed to have opinions about it, I suppose...although I remember him once drawing Calvin imagining himself as a dinosaur and devouring people and crushing their bones, and then this other strip where he blew his grade school clear off the map, and a bunch where there was talk about Hobbes eating people. I'm going to have to look up this quote now.
