That's 85% from the digital list price.

I'm not a comics guy. So, I don't know much about them, in general, or the Calvin and Hobbes comic strip, in particular. But I do know what a big markdown looks like, and what great ratings looks like, too. And this book has both.

There are more Calvin and Hobbes comics books marked down at Amazon at the present time, but it looks like none of them are marked down as steeply as this one.

Please be aware that, according to information in the book description, this ebook will only work on color tablets. It apparently will not work, or maybe not work correctly, on desktop apps or black and white tablets.

The Essential Calvin and Hobbes: A Calvin and Hobbes Treasury. By Bill Watterson. Rated 4.8 stars, from 376 reviews at the present moment. Print list price $18.99; digital list price $12.99; Kindle price $1.99. Andrew McMeel Publishing, LLC, publisher. 256 pages. http://www.amazon.com/Essential-Calv...YSJ1YVHF55HB4H.

Book Description
Now available for the first time as an e-book!

The cartoons in this e-book have been specially formatted for optimal viewing. The e-book will only work on color tablets and is not intended for viewing on desktop apps or black and white tablets.

Perhaps the most brilliant comic strip ever created, Calvin and Hobbes continues to entertain with dazzling cartooning and tremendous humor.

Bill Watterson's Calvin and Hobbes has been a worldwide favorite since its introduction in 1985. The strip follows the richly imaginative adventures of Calvin and his trusty tiger, Hobbes. Whether a poignant look at serious family issues or a round of time-travel (with the aid of a well-labeled cardboard box), Calvin and Hobbes will astound and delight you.
Beginning with the day Hobbes sprang into Calvin's tuna fish trap, the first two Calvin and Hobbes collections, Calvin and Hobbes and Something Under The Bed Is Drooling, are brought together in this treasury. Including black-and-white dailies and color Sundays, The Essential Calvin and Hobbes also features an original full-color 16-page story.
