Hardest matchup in the tournament. This is what I would have picked as my finals matchup if the structure would have worked out. I was picking Calvin and Hobbes initially. But something is stopping me. I can't quite put my finger on it. But the mere factthat I haven't choosen C&H right away tells me I have no choice

The first one was the toughest yet. I had to go with Calvin, though, because while Dilbert is relevant to my current adulthood, Calvin WAS my childhood.

Calvin and Hobbes -- there is nothing more endearing than an evil little boy.
Far Side -- I've never seen a Blondie page a day calendar.
Doonesbury -- it saw me through my college years and is still an old favorite
Zits -- its so real, its funny
