For the good people of slate dot com I explored the career and mysteries of one Robert Pattinson, the most (intentionally) misunderstood actor of his generation: slate.com/culture/2026...
slate.com
He Was an Object of Mockery. Now He’s Looking Like the Next Brad Pitt. I Think I Know What Changed.
“R-Patz” was a derided teen heartthrob. Now he’s in four of the biggest movies of the year and seems headed for his first Oscar nomination.

Please enjoy ten gorgeous Calvin & Hobbes Sunday strips from 1992 to 1995, when Bill Watterson was free to draw it any way he wanted—along with my long-winded commentary on the syndicate-mandated limitations on his prior work, how he exploited his later freedom, and why his work generally is great.
