I might be considered a bit crazy, but I am not a huge fan of the Peanuts or Calvin and Hobbs. They are great and well put together, and have a very enjoyable sense of humor. They both handle some pretty mature ideas and messages and the art style is pretty cool too. I guess I have not spent enough time with them to fully appreciate them (specifically Calvin and Hobbs).
Little Nemo is really impressive though. I like how imaginative the dreams are, while still feeling grounded in reality. What am I saying.... they are pretty ridiculous, and I like it a lot! I guess I just like that feel, it could be the way it is written, mixed with the art style. It feels so well crafted, it feels.... good, I don't know how to explain.
My first few reads of Krazy and Ignatz made me confused. I just thought, "ok this is a random comic about a mouse who like to hit this cat with a brick." However, when it was explained in class about how sophisticated it was, I really started to appreciate what the comic was doing. It really is a pretty clever strip.
