    Calvin and Hobbes images

    I am looking for a particular image of Calvin of Calvin and Hobbes fame. This one is of Calvin pulling the ultimate pissed off face - mouth turned down, massive frown, hunched shoulders, back turned etc etc etc.
    I have seen this in the cartoon books but cannot find it in any of the online image galleries.
    Anybody know the one I mean? And if so, is there a downloadable clip of it anywhere?

    Waterson is very very protective of his intellectual property rights .. and images outside the books are very hard to find ...

    Yeah I like the guy. He doesn't trade on Calvin and Hobbes as a money machine unlike many other cartoonists eg. Jim Davis with Garfield.

    So can't help Slofox although I know the image you refer to. Might have it in a book a mere 2 meters from this chair but that's no use to you.

    You don't know anyone with a scanner? The missus has one of his books at home...will take a look for the one you are thinking of, and can scan it for you if we have it.

    I have six or seven C&H books, plus a couple of compendiums, will check through them this weekend.
