The algorithm needs to pick this up. It’s one of the few actually good Calvin and Hobbes animations out there.

Like literally ripped from the pages. I know he's really protective of his work, but I wonder if Bill Waterson has seen these 🤔 They're really well done, amazing even.

Calvin getting his ass beat while Hobbes just chills XD

Exactly how I imagined the strip would be in motion. Delightful.

Apparently he never sold merchandise because it never gave away the same value as the pictures. Im certain he would love this. I sure do.

There was exsactly one officially endorsed Shirt, and it was for an art gallery I believe, but yeah beyond that Waterson was very keen on not selling out.

Almost nothing. He had a couple of items that were sold during exhibitions. He also authorized a book, teaching with Calvin and Hobbes. Only 2500 copies designed for kids with reading issues. One has to wonder what percentage of them survived. I bought one years ago for $50. Last one sold for $5000 on ebay.

he did sell the books but the books are the same as the comics just curated together. he made a lot of money during the 10 year comic run and with the books.

I’m sure you get this a lot, but this is downright amazing! If Bill Watterson ever agreed to have an animated tv series of Calvin and Hobbes, I hope he sees this first and picks you to be the director of animation or something! Everything about this is perfect

It is lovely, but I can't see any voices being given to any of the characters. So I don't think an animated feature would work. Maybe some purring.

@@hb8010 I talked to Rob Paulson about that and he said he would definitely do a couple of voices for Calvin & Hobbes (Hobbes especially) since he liked the comics so much. Sucks Bill Watterson just doesn't feel comfortable Doing anything outside of the comic strips though.

This is PRECISELY what I needed to put up on my tv in winter while I'm steaming chestnuts and making hot chocolate. The ambience is so PERFECT. It makes me think back to Christmas time with my parents AND grandparents, when I was still young and excited for everything related to the holiday. Even the music you chose reminds me of what Christmas sounded like in my house. It all feels comforting and warm, like it should.

Calvin and Hobbes animation is amazing because it is so amazingly rare. If Bill Waterson gave it the OK, they'd be a dime a dozen.

Hobbs inside snoozing under the fire by the evening paper. Calvin building snow goons. Dad building character shoveling snow. Suzie chases Calvin having been clobbered with one of his snowballs. Mom's cup of hot chocolate left by the fire to stay warm while she does chores. Family photos on the mantle. Everything in place except Calvin's Astroboy school picture. Outstanding work Adam! 6 stars out of 5. Excellent soundtrack; bounces back and forth between L-Center-R speakers. Wow.

One the best videos to ever grace KZread. Just like Calvin and Hobbes was the best comic to ever grace our childhoods. The music is superb as well. Everything is perfect. Just right. Just as it was when I was a child, reading Calvin and Hobbes by the fire with my dog Floyd.

Put this on in our work break room. People that didn't know Calvin and Hobbes were watching to see the entire loop. Thank you for this! You match Watterson's style and spirit well!

I love how you kept that painted look to the whole thing

This video makes me so happy. My only wish would be that the music was louder than the fire crackles.

This is my childhood brought to life and I am overjoyed. Bless you for this and your wonderful work.

Only somebody with a tiger as a friend & with child heart can do this fantastic work. Amazing Adam-Calvin, congratulations!! 😃

This is genuinely the best Calvin and Hobbes animation Ive ever seen. I thought it would be impossible to capture Wattersons style so well in animation. If you ever have the time Id really love to see more Calvin and Hobbes animation from you

I absolutely adore how you straight up recreated a sunday strip with the whole "Calvin contemplates throwing a snowball" bit.

This is nostalgic in a way I cannot describe, even the music vibes with how I'd picture a Calvin and Hobbes special if it ever were to exist.

Back in the day, I used to give the latest Calvin and Hobbes book to my brother every Christmas. He would dive right in and laugh until he was red in the face. Best Christmas memory for me!

Speaking of Calvin and Hobbes animations, there’s actually a Calvin and Hobbes Lego stop motion series out there created three or four months ago, and it pays homage to several iconic comic strips of theirs, and the opening isn’t too bad,it’s just, the music in the opening is BLARING. Its a wonderful tribute to the duo otherwise, and I really want everyone to know about it. Go check it out and maybe give me some feedback.

This is the holy grail of calvin and hobbes animation, it should remain the only type in existence!!!! Love it

Love this. Only thing i would suggest is have more of the wait time between the more active animations to keep it more relaxing. Have the more active animations be like Easter eggs that you have to pay attention to the video to see. It may seem to busy otherwise. And for a little icing on the cake some subtle audio cues for Hobbs stretching and the great animations in the window. But as a C & H fan I’m am very thankful for this blast from the past. 9.7/10 *all opinions expressed in this comment matter as much as you think they do. Just a “layman” pointing something out to who i think is a pro* I hope you have kept up with your art journey because this truly gave my heart joy. I hope your heart was filled and felt at peace making it. All the well wish to you.

ive had this as my wallpaper for quite some time now. it just never gets old. i love it.

Someone needs to turn this into a super long ambience channel! EDIT: i read the length of it wrong! It is! Love this!!!

If it was “faithful” to the original, he’d be giving credit to Watterson. Plus, Watterson was pretty damn clear about not wanting it animated. 🙄

This really captured the aesthetic of the comics and perfectly translated them into motion without losing any of that. This is gonna be playing on my computer alot this winter. ❤️

I so needed this, right here…right now in my lifetime. “I’m not crying…you’re crying”. But seriously, thank you so very much!❤️

Watching Hobbes breath while sleeping is mesmerizing!

Perfectly done. Tasteful and true to the source. A real tribute.

I'm sure you know this, but your choice of music is perfect! Mr. Watterson loves jazz! The animation is amazing as well! I always thought it was a shame this strip never made it to screen.

This is beautifully done. You captured the essence and style perfectly and faithfully. I also love that you didn't take liberties with the material to make "fanfic" out of it

This is definitely my new favorite video to relax to now and probably forever

The love and care put in this is more than my inferior human brain can even begin to comprehend

I love everything about this❤️I love Calvin and Hobbes, watching it be animated gives me a big smile (:

This is awesome this is the best Calvin and Hobbes animation I have come across...And i like how you don't have voices for them or anything. You should make moreeeee lollll I enjoy these

Beautifully done, thank you. Feels to me like you really did Watterson's work justice here, which is no small feat. I think it's brave to even try to go there :).

Video: It’s Calvin and Hobbes Me: yes Adam: It’s my wallpaper Me: YES Adam: _You can have it as your wallpaper too_ Me: *_YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS_*

My new favorite youtube video while I work.

Commenting for the algorithm - this is wonderful

Im glad this popped up in my recommends. One of my favourite books growing up to

Calvin and Hobbes🤗❤!!!

god this animation paired with the piano jazz is so good. this might turn into my study video lolol

This is definitely going to be my yule log this Christmas.

Purely amazing

I love this so much that I want it to be my background on my phone

I love this way too much

This is really good, thanks for the wallpaper gang!

Eu ainda tenho tiras de jornal da época em que tinha,as estórias. Adoro .

I love this ! The light jazz reminds me of the early Peanuts animated specials.

This is very relaxing

Mesmerized...

2:28 ok that whole scene in the background Windsor I know exactly the strip it’s from lol and it’s so amazing to see it animated.

Это лучший комикс моего детства. Какое счастье увидеть его в моей стране в Классном журнале

This is magical. We all need to band together to beat the algorithm - sometime in mid-December, few weeks before Christmas , everyone reading this should share this video on the same day. December 12. 12/12/21. Who's with me?

Just the sound is so nice and relaxing but combined with the animation it's pretty awesome

Very nice work! I like it a lot! Calvin and Hobbes rule!

Great job Adam!

Beautiful an so sentimental to the spirit of this beloved script!

Lovely animation and nice music, too! 😊Thanks!

Great job whoever did this. 🏆

I need you to be the lead animation director on a Calvin and Hobbes project (feature, series, as long as it's in motion), ASAP, please!

Bloody fantastic

This is great! I loved Calvin and Hobbes

Ah, memories of a simpler time. No social media, no legal obligation to be connected 24/7, "computers" were a thing few people needed or wanted, and it was actually _possible_ to have a lazy day in front of a fireplace or playing outside pelting people with snowballs, making Deranged Killer Monster Snow Goons, and also Building Character™ with shoveling. If only that were still possible today... If only the world of Calvin and Hobbes _could_ still be a world we could live in. Even for today's six year olds, Calvin's world is unrecognizable.

Master level animation of the comic strip! I loved Calvin & Hobbes from my childhood, or Kalle & Hobbe as they are called here in Sweden!🥰🐯 p.s as said in the comnents I love that it's in the spirit of Bill wattersons original comic strip!

Love this 💖

Go ahead and animate Calvin in this vein… So long as it is done in taste Watterson will not sue.

Excellent.

Love it. The music gives me “Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy” flashbacks though.

My fave comic book as a kid🥲❤️

This is good and relaxing 😌

Love it!!!!!
