    Calvin Goes Dark
  

*by D***T on Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2021*

I'm a Calvin and Hobbes fan from way back and someone on twitter tipped me off to this some time in the hazy past.Imagine if Calvin had a terrible upbringing and grew up to become a cop but still had Hobbes for a best friend. That's the lazy way to describe Spencer & Locke. When Locke's girlfriend Sophie turns up dead, Locke goes stomping into the most dangerous territory imaginable to find her: his own past.Spencer & Locke doesn't quite stray into James Ellroy territory but it's some dark stuff. Many of the Calvin and Hobbes tropes are examined through the blood smeared lens of David Pepose and Jorge Santiago Jr. Santiago's art with Jasen Smith's color palette reminds me of Francisco Francavilla's Archie Horror work.The character designs are close enough to their Calvin and Hobbes counterparts that you know who they correlate to but are unique enough to stand on their own. Hell, Spencer reminds me of Blacksad at times, an anthropomorphic panther who may be more real than he lets on.Part Calvin and Hobbes homage, part hardboiled noir, Spencer & Locke hits all the right buttons for me. Five out of five stars.

    Calvin and Hobbes reimagined as a gritty crime Noir
  

*by L***K on Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2021*

I friggin' adored this book. I was always a fan of the funny pages growing up and no comic strip was more pure than Calvin and Hobbes.The idea of a dark, cyclical, aged send-up to those characters set in a crime-noir works SHOCKINGLY well. David Pepose clearly has a love for the original comic because he knows how to twist it in all the right ways to create something that is both a dark parody of its inspiration while still somehow being a love letter to it.It's hard to review crime noirs because there's always a chance you might get into spoilers. So I'll just say that if there's an element from C&H you love, it's here and perfectly altered to suit a crime noir drama.A hard-boiled detective who carries around his childhood stuffed animal to be his partner. Wild.

    Stuffie Noir
  

*by J***R on Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2017*

Not sure which I love more -- noir films and books, or the comic strip Calvin & Hobbes. So here's yr chance to refuse to choose. This comic is wonderfully written and illustrated. I'm gonna presume readers of this review are familiar w/ this comic's central idea: C & H all grown up, gritty and grim. There are parts of this comic that are incredibly moving and I suspect I'll cry on each re-read, just like I do w/ parts of We3, The Sandman and other classics.If I was richer, I'd buy a copy for all my friends. But then I'd have to have friends first -- friends, that is, besides my pit bull Effie. No, she's not a stuffie. She just doesn't move when you look at her.So buy this. Buy it new. Follow the creators and publisher. I sure will.
