      Audience Member This little documentary was a good bit of fun, giving insight into the world of a dying print medium like newspapers and how the daily comic strip is adapting and looking for other outlets with a new generation of artists. Well worth a look. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member A solid look into the future of cartoon strips, or more appropriately, the transition to webcomics. Could have been more interesting and funny, considering comics are supposed to keep your attention, and make you laugh. Watched on Netflix at home, August 2, 2015. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Every bit as charming and pleasant as a read through your favorite Sunday morning full-color treat, âStrippedâ? is a very entertaining look at the glorious past, modern struggles and resurgence of cartoonists. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Cleverly organized and presented material representing a broad range of artists and opinions about the medium. Plus, Bill Watterson actually makes an audio appearance. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member To be transparent, I should confess I was having a documentary day on the Netflix when I saw this, and that I love Calvin and Hobbes more than I could ever explain, so I was in a great position to enjoy the film. Turns out this is the only time C+H creator Bill Watterson has ever recorded audio of any kind for anything. But you get a lot more than his perspective. We hear about the process and the business of comics from just about every angle all while focusing on true love of the form, which made for a fast-moving piece that gave me some energy for work of my own. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Probably more compelling for the "Sunday Funnies" connoisseur than the casual reader, it ultimately acts as an epitaph for the uncertain future of the comic pages of the newspaper, while at the same time being cautiously optimistic for its own future.
