Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for April 17, 2014

Being a 6 year-old’s conscience is a thankless job.

Calvin…Good???!!! Why that would take all the fun out of everything, especially Rosalind… ;)

This is one of those moments that remind us why it’s fun to watch Calvin suffer – he is absolutely DETERMINED to be a complete jerk.

If I remember correctly, Rosilind lays down the law, big time!

Desperate times call for desperate measures,Calvin. REALLYdesperate in your case.

Until the water gets cold and you have to get out.

Be a good night to turn in early!

Yeah but he’d be all wrinkly like a prune so she wouldn’t recognize him.

can getting other baby -sits..?

Calvin: What?! Me, GOOD?! Why don’t ask me to stop breathing while you’re at it!

Somehow I think that zoning ordinances will be among the last things on Rosalyn’s mind.

Calvin and “good” just don’t go together in the same sentence.

Good and ornery as usual, Calvin

Calvin asks for it. He only will tolerate people that let things slip all the time.

It’s amazing the amount of text Watterson can get away with.

You could try being good, Calvin…

Oh, Hobbes already said that.

Silly me.

Sumtimes I think maybe Calvin’s dad is a ventriloquist …

Perish the thought, Hobbes. This is Calvin you’re talking to.

babysisters a pain huh?

If Calvin is good this comic strip would be boring

why am i getting not picture on half the comics today and yesterday? i hate it when that happens.

Quick Calvin — you’re in the wrong comic — head over to Broomie where Nerwin is riding around in the pouch of a kangaroo for a babysitter. Much better :)

Rosalyn probably grew up to write for “Game of Thrones”.
