Aslan & Hobbes

A wonderful article about promotion/production of commerical junk: Christianity Today: Tale of Two Kitties.
"I don't want some animation studio giving Hobbes an actor's voice, and I don't want some greeting card company using Calvin to wish people a happy anniversary, and I don't want the issue of Hobbes's reality settled by a doll manufacturer. When everything fun and magical is turned into something for sale, the strip's world is diminished."
Bill Waterson, Creator of Calvin & Hobbes
