Not much chance of that. Watterson was always pretty tough on the idea of any merchandising. I'm sure he has endured two decades of offers at this point, and he hasn't given in yet.

Considering the pains he went to in order to secure his work from merchandising in the first place, I think that's almost a certainty. But then, who knows? Maybe he won't begrudge his heirs the money it would bring.
