I collect fake Calvin & Hobbes merchandise as a hobby and have enough peeing Calvin stickers to make a surrealistic flipbook of it if I hold my collection in my hand. Bill Watterson should enjoy these dimensions of kitsch, irony and cheap simulacra instead of fighting it; and even still, would we have pissing Calvin to begin with had he licensed it early on enough? Who invented pissing Calvin? I don't care about Bill Watterson. I care about pissing Calvin.

He should and he apparently does.
