Bill is releasing a major work.
It is not Calvin and Hobbes.
The cover looks like a scene from a dark Grimm's folk tale.
And it is for adullts.
But is not, I suspect, an "adult cartoon". :toucan:

Might be something to savor.

"As for the next chapter in Watterson’s career... as “a compelling, provocative story that invites readers to examine their place in the universe and their responsibility to others and the planet we all share”...

For all the darkness, the characters in the new book – sad-eyed knights, self-satisfied kings and pensive wizards – still possess the vitality that made a boy and his tiger seem to exist beyond the page."

Bill Watterson, the legendary (and seemingly reclusive) Calvin and Hobbes cartoonist, has a new project out and it is quite dark and mysterious looking. He's hardly made a peep in the last twenty something years so this seems like a big deal!

Some more info on The Mysteries, including some samples from inside the book.

If Amazon's pre-order page still says they can't ship to my location when this comes out, there may be a scene. Just saying.
