Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for October 06, 1992
Transcript:
Dad: What story would you like tonight? We can read anything except... Calvin: "Hamster Huey and the Gooey Kablooie"! Dad: No! No Hamster Huey tonight! We've read that book a million times! Calvin: I want Hamster Huey! Dad: Look, you know how the story goes! You've memorized the whole thing! It's the same story every day! Calvin: I want Hamster Huey! Wow, the story was different that time! Hobbes: Do you think the townsfolk will ever find Hamster Huey's head?
This is a great strip! The expressions on Calvin and Hobbes in the last panel are hysterical! Of course, Dad will regret this at two in the morning, when Cal still can’t get to sleep.
