This is the one where Calvin changed his :”transmogrifier” into a “Duplicator” (he crossed out the name on the box) and created 5 duplicates of himself. It’s a good line - ran for nearly 2 weeks originally
This reminds me of the Star Trek episode where Capt. Kirk got split in two, and there was the EVIL (but efficiently commanding) Kirk lurking around, and the GOOD (but ineffectively incompetent) Kirk wondering where his blankie is.
Calvin has either been turned into a “Stepford” child OR he’s been replaced by a pod person from “Invasion Of The Body Snatchers” … because this little boy definitely isn’t the precocious, mischievous Calvin we all know and love!
Hey Calvin - wanna really ring your mother’s chimes? Just put on yer cool and walk by, say something, and her BS monitor will go up in a shower of sparks and fly off the wall and fall on the floor with a crash…Just remember the 11th Commandment: ” Thou shalt keep thy seat belt fastened at all times”.
Ok… if Calvin’s acting like this, it’s not Calvin. OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ALIENS HAVE ABDUCTED CALVIN AND HOBBES!!!!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT!!!! :)

I remember it, too, margueritem, and it’s a funny arc.
I’m surprised Mom didn’t say, “All right, who are you, and what have you done with my son?”
vibjyor over 13 years ago
Where is Calvin and who is this kid Mom is speaking to ?
alviebird over 13 years ago
That’s scary.

You can’t fool Mom, Calvin. She knows that you’re up to something mischievous.

Right, an alternate universe where Calvin is a good kid. I’d rather think that’s Calvin’s got something up his sleeve.
Good Morning, Marg, Mike & ♠Lonewolf♠.

We see so much of “bad” Calvin (or is that normal Calvin) that “good” Calvin just seems out of place!
