Calvin and Hobbes.<p>The second most magnificent thing is Calvin and Hobbes was never licensed.<p>The third most magnificent thing is it stopped whilst it was awesome instead of being wrung out for every penny.<p>There&#x27;s no films, no sequels.  You can&#x27;t buy a licensed tshirt with Calvin and Hobbes on it.  There&#x27;s no licensed merchandise.  No one has made it into a live action movie.  Calvin and Hobbes are not available this month on MacDonalds cups if you buy a second whopper burger.  You can&#x27;t buy plush toys of Hobbes.  There isn&#x27;t a Christmas special TV show. Giant balloon figures of Calvin and Hobbes do not appear in city parades.<p>Imagine if Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit had been kept so pristine.
