[Groop] Re: Calvin & Hobbes

[Mark Brown]

He never replies to his fan mail either... tch.
Shame everyone isn't as accommodating as Terry Pratchet (Discworld novels)
in this respect, still if everyone spent as much time replying to fan mail
as writing the stuff then maybe they wouldn't get any work done.  Hardly a
consideration for Mr W though....

For those who may be interested:

www.csd.uu.se/~d94her/calvin/jumpstation.html

is a really good starting point for C&H stuff  and
http://www.okidoki.nl/calvin_and_hobbes/intrvw.htm contains the only
transcript of an interview I've ever seen with the man himself. (As for the
photo - guess who "Dad"  was modelled on)

Speaking of which... Is there some reason ME's photo is always a drawing on
fan sites.... hmmm ???  There also seems to be a bit of a shortage of Sergio
photos.  The only one Ive seen is a rather elderly looking b/w one.  Can
someone address this seriously deficit !

Mark

ps:  hey... Ive got the longest e-mail address of the Groop... is there a
prize?
