Pearls Before Swine newspaper strip creator Stephan Pastis writes,

Let me tell you. Just getting an email from Bill Watterson is one of the most mind-blowing, surreal experiences I have ever had. Bill Watterson really exists? And he sends email? And he's communicating with me?

But he was. And he had a great sense of humor about the strip I had done, and was very funny, and oh yeah….

…He had a comic strip idea he wanted to run by me.

Read the whole experience here, and then see the strips, co-drawn by Calvin & Hobbes creator Bill Watterson – his first strip work since that series ended.
