Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for February 09, 2020

Unfortunately, Susie only heard one side of that argument.

if Calvin moves to the tropics with Susie, he’ll slip a seaweed or a crab down her bathing suit

Oh MAN

I’m surprised Susie and her family haven’t moved to the tropics already.

Now we see what others see when Calvin is interacting with Hobbes.

Still one of my favorite Calvin and Hobbes cartoons. It perfectly illustrates the dichotomy between Calvin’s reality, and the reality the rest of us are stuck with.

My parents barely let me have one of those horns with the rubber bulb. And that was for a bicycle. A siren would have been SO COOL !!

What I dream about these days is a vehicle with a million-lumen light bank mounted so I can point it at the extra tall truck behind me whose low beams are super bright and aimed right at my mirrors.

No snowballs this time, Susie?

If Calvin lived in the tropics he’d probably get his surfboard stuck in a palm tree.

Susie got off unscathed this time. Calvin’s slipping.

Airbags might be more appropriate

To see the range of Susie’s reactions in the middle panels…:)

You got it all man! Calvin is best toon Funniest toon ever. Thanks Bill!

It just hit me.

Hard.

I am Susie and I married Calvin.

Help me.

There is no hope ;)

This is one of the funnier ones ever!

What you need is a drag ’chute!

You can’t avoid Calvin. He is like a destructive a force of nature.

They had fun their way.

And to top the fun off they disgusted Susie.

I think the sled has a siren. It’s called, “Calvin”.

We used to sled through the woods. You had to really steer so as not to get killed by an immovable tree.

How does fresh snow help Susie avoid Calvin? By looking for tracks?

Each panel a masterpiece!

A siren? What, the one from Ghost Busters?

Little do you know Susie, you will marry Calvin and have kids and grandkids. And when it is time for Calvin to leave us you will bring Hobbs out of the attic so Calvin and give him to that grandkid nobody understands and is always in trouble. And the adventure will continue.

German Stuka dive bombers had sirens on them that screamed as the plane dived towards it target.

Maybe Calvin should pick a hill slightly more suited to his sledding skills.

Some gags come closer than others to answering the mystery of Hobbes’ reality.

Yet still there is room for debate. Did Susie see the truth- that Calvin is talking to himself with an inanimate object that only he imagines is alive… or IS Hobbes alive and there’s a spell (for lack of a better word) so that all but Calvin are blind to it?

Women are Venus, men are bonkers, sometimes.

“Let’s get the sled out of the tree and do that again!” – something I hope never to hear in real life.

And this is basically ALL of Calvin and Hobbes in one genius strip!

I don’t think Calvin’s sledding should be complete without introducing paintball guns into it. Paintball guns in snow would be pretty interesting.

This is the only time I’ve seen a third party in-frame when Calvin is talking to Hobbes, in particularly with Hobbes supposedly talking back.

Assuming Hobbes really is just in Calvin’s imagination; I’d sure like to see those fights through Susie’s eyes – Calvin rolling around with a stuffed animal acting like it’s a fight?

Three punchlines in one comic!

(The second panel, the penultimate panel, and the past panel)

Cutie Susie is most welcome on this part of the tropical world. But then the invitation is extended to Calvin as well! Of course, calvin can do skiing on the fresh water rivers over here.

Living in the tropics is wonderful.
