Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for February 04, 2019

Oh boy. I love this storyline.

Maybe they should keep him home alone to avoid the trouble. I don’t see what could go wrong

Mom remembers how you behaved last week when they took you to a restaurant.

Kids really are a lot smarter than they act.

And that means you’re screwed, Calvin. Right?

How do the feet in panel 1 fit into the shoes in panel 4?

I’m taking a guess and say this is the storyline where Calvin locks Rosalyn out of the house.

And now the fun begins my dear Watson.

I love to see Calvin suffer at the hands of Rosalyn.

Brought it on yourself Calvin..

The females in Calvin’s life—Ms Wormwood, Mom, Rosalyn, and Susie—all love Calvin. He would have grown up with something of an understanding of women, though most guys who know how to behave themselves with women learned from sisters.

That is just Wow

The look of terror soon to be followed by the agony of defeat.

Is that your war-cry, Calvin?

waaaaaaaaaaa!!! poor brat!!

Aw, it can’t be that bad, huh Calvin? (snicker, snicker)

This is how Rosalyn afforded college.

I have a theory that Rosalyn is named for Roswell, New Mexico and that she’s secretly an alien. How else could she have such power over Calvin (Okay, it’s a dumb theory, but I’m only working on my second cup of coffee so far)?

I can see that ‘Calvin’ is not looking forward to being ‘bound and gagged’ on his bed until he falls asleep ! ! ! !

Every superhero has a nemesis.

Unrelated note: Calvin’s mom must be the fastest woman I’ve ever seen get ready to go.

Calvin, you’re a great kid; imaginative, inventive, caring in your own way. But every now and then, you need a solid smack to the forehead!

Elementary!

Be glad they aren’t packing their bags, kid.

Now’s their chance. Pretend to Rosalyn and Calvin they’re going for a few hours and then run to the airport, buy tickets under an assumed name…

I bet Rosalyn was just like Calvin when she was six years old.

Just realized that Calvin’s mom was cursed both with a bratty kid and a lousy figure.

This is her going out to a nice restaurant for a dinner for two outfit?

I just love how Rosalyn and Calvin “play” together!

Love this arc!

I think Rosalyn is short for Rozzilla.

Oh oh. Revenge of the Baby Sat begins here!

Just another great example of Watterson giving life to Calvin. I can actually hear him in panel 4!

Welcome back Rosalyn.

Whoa. That was some fast dressing by Mom …
