Key reasons why Bill Watterson deserves a Nobel

For those who are fans of Calvin and Hobbes, it almost seems silly to discuss why Bill Watterson deserves a nobel, but the argument perhaps needs, perhaps because of the domain he operated in. The way Bob Dylan's Nobel was panned in some quarters..

• He took the comic strip art form to a new level
• The Calvin and Hobbes series makes commentary on key issues, including:
  1. Environment
  2. Politics
  3. Media and advertising
  4. Art
  5. Childhood
  6. Education
• Successive generations have discovered and fallen in love with C&H, and the lgecay continues to endure.
• Most importantly perhaps, Bill Watterson is so reclusive and so rarely interviewed or even seen in public, that conferring him a Nobel is perhaps the only way to get him out of hiding, and this is honestly would be putting a NObel to a pretty decent use for once.
