Calvin has always known his fate is linked to the comic book character from
Calvin & Hobbes. He was born on the day the last strip was published; his
grandpa left a stuffed tiger named Hobbes in his crib; and he even has a best
friend named Susie. As a child Calvin played with the toy Hobbes, controlling
his every word and action, until Hobbes was washed to death.
But now Calvin is
a teenager who has been diagnosed with schizophrenia, Hobbes is back―as a delusion―and
Calvin can't control him. Calvin decides that if he can convince Bill Watterson
to draw one final comic strip, showing a normal teenaged Calvin, he will be
cured. Calvin and Susie (and Hobbes) set out on a dangerous trek across frozen
Lake Erie to track him down.
