Toynapper!

So THAT’S how Calvin originally got Hobbes: shoplifted a zoo gift shop!

SNERK!!

According to Calvin he was helping him escape!

" Mister we could use a strip like Calvin & Hobbes again… ♬ ♪♪ "*

No, not Siberian. Not Bengali. Not South China…. Stuffed!Stop, thief!Start, Calvin & Hobbes!

Why reprise them? There’s already a successor to Calvin & Hobbes : Marigold Heavenly Nostrils

Together again! But I’m getting this Butch and Sundance vibe…

So, was Hobbes doing a little shopping in “ZOO GIFTS”, or was he being sold there?

I’m leaning towards, “being sold”. Otherwise, why would that saleslady care?

Much as I miss Calvin & Hobbes, I must say that Frazz has definitely picked up the torch left by C&H.

Thank you very much!

This was hilarious, although it would’ve been even funnier if the saleslady looked like Miss Wormwood, Calvin’s teacher.

It’s too bad they can’t run the strips where Calvin and Susie got married. Maybe in the near future.

Was that a grown up Marcie running the gift shop?

REUNITED AT LAST
