This isn’t an edit BTW. Real newspaper comic from real newspapers.

      I was and still am but with less.free time a voracious reader, Calvin and Hobbes were massive in getting that started. I still have all the books, including redundant collections cause they have exclusive content. Had someone describe me as a combination of Calvin and Hobbes and Rhe Far Side when dating (we then just became best friends) and they got my number good, those were formative as hell.

          I usually am not an anime guy but check out nichijou, it’s based on a Manga that’s closer to a newspaper comic in style so it’s sort of sketches that add up. It’s got far side main class and Calvin and Hobbes subclass

      Low key important piece of media for my eventual radicalization. It planted seeds in my brain that took a couple decades to germinate.

        I always begged my mom to get me Calvin & Hobbes books and I read and reread the fuck out of them. Those and Goosebumps and eventually The Hobbit were the start of me being a voracious reader.

      I guarantee I wouldn’t be posting here right now if it weren’t for Calvin and Hobbes. I don’t think anything is as obviously formative for me.
