October Prime Day<\/a> is right around the corner, with some great early deals<\/a> already available. But there\u2019s also plenty of deals to take advantage of before the two-day sales event kicks off on Oct. 8.<\/p>\n

A perennial Polygon favorite, The Complete Calvin and Hobbes<\/a>, <\/em>is currently on sale for a steep discount ahead of Amazon Prime Day<\/a>. The four-volume paperback collection<\/a> is on sale for $85 (47% off its list price of $160) while the three-volume hardcover edition<\/a> is $125 (44% off its list price of $225).<\/p>\n

The story of a boy with a vivid imagination and his best friend (a stuffed tiger, naturally) defined many a childhood \u2014 and has served as a wildly relevant comfort<\/a> during some of our hardest collective years. Both discounted collections feature every Calvin and Hobbes<\/em> cartoon that appeared in syndication, which ran from 1985 until Bill Watterson\u2019s retirement at the start of 1996. <\/p>\n

These collections are sure to be a cherished treat for long-time fans, but also a great way to dive into the beloved series if you\u2019re someone who has yet has experienced the joy that is Calvin and Hobbes<\/em>. <\/p>\n

If you aren\u2019t quite ready to commit to the full series, the new Calvin and Hobbes Portable Compendiums<\/em> have double-digit discounts right now: Both typically available for $22, Volume 1<\/a> is currently on sale for $17 (25% off) and Volume 2<\/a> is an even better steal at $13 (42% off). And if you\u2019re saying to yourself right now, \u201cListen here, Polygon, I already have<\/em> both volumes, thank-you-very-much,\u201c well guess what? Volume 3<\/a> just came out and it\u2019s on sale for $19.79 (10% off). You\u2019re welcome!<\/p>\n

For those that already<\/em> have this collection and are looking to put more Bill Watterson on their bookshelves, we recommend checking out The Mysteries<\/em><\/a>, which is also currently on sale for 42% off. The Mysteries<\/em> is a \u201cfable for grown-ups\u201d and a collaboration between Watterson \u2014 who came out of retirement<\/a> for this project \u2014 and illustrator John Kascht. If you need to know more, the pair released a rather charming video<\/a> last year about their work together.<\/p>\n
