Excellent price on set 1. I have the first 5 sets, the strips are reproduced with high contrast, color reproduction and print quality. The form factor lends itself well to casual reading on the sofa.

While the portability is wonderful for casual reading (especially versus the unwieldy "Complete Calvin and Hobbes"), the smaller size comes at the price of reducing the glory of the Sunday strips. They are significantly smaller than the "Treasury" books or "Complete". But overall this is a great way to get into C&H.

The last sets never go on sale, so it will cost more than the real compedium.
