It’s the holiday season – a time for being thankful and for giving gifts. I’m incredibly thankful for all the support Looking for Calvin and Hobbes has received (It’s about to go into its 5th printing!!!), so I’m giving away five personally signed copies of it. To enter, all you have to do is email me or Tweet me a picture that demonstrates your Calvin and Hobbes fandom. It might be a shot of the abominable snowman you built, your Calvin tattoo, the Hobbes doll you sewed, a picture of your kid reading a collection, a sketch you drew of your favorite comic duo – whatever, go crazy. I will post the best entries and winners will be chosen in mid-January. By submitting your photos, you are giving me permission to post them online. Please feel free to link to this contest, Tweet about it, or write a blog post about it.
Take a look at some of the entries I’ve already received!
