I always felt more like I could relate to Hobbes, but their relationship was perfect for the comic. I think Bill Waterson made the right decision though, to terminate the comic before it started repeating itself. He could have churned out crappy repeats for years like Jim Davis did with Garfield (still does??), but he chose to end it before it went down hill. Sooo much respect for that.
I never read Deadpool as a kid. I just knew a little bit about Batman, Spiderman and Xmen (loved Xmen, who were called "Project X" in the early years of the comics here in Denmark). I had this album with the origin story of Wolverine which I adored. I never actually got into superhero comics that much. I just kind of read whatever was availbable, some of which would be super hero stuff.
