Watch the trailer for the "Calvin & Hobbes" documentary "Dear Mr. Watterson" will be released Nov. 15

The Kickstarter-funded "Calvin & Hobbes" appreciation project, documentary "Dear Mr. Watterson," now has a trailer and release date. Directed by Joel Allen Schroeder, the film explores the legacy of Bill Watterson's iconic comic strip through interviews with artists who have been influenced by "Calvin & Hobbes," like Seth Green ("“Family Guy”) and Bill Amend (“Foxtrot”).

Watterson, who remains camera-shy, retired the comic after ten years in 1995 and has not licensed the strip's characters for commercial purposes.
