Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for January 05, 2021

Good thing you got Susie doing reconnaissance for you, Calvin.

what else to which could Miss Derkins be referring when she said, “all those”?

Talk about treason. They’ll attack their creator, Calvin, but not Susie.

Never mind the questionable logic of fighting a snowman with snowballs.

Get in the fort, quickly, you are in danger Susi!!

So, Calvin’s not just a kid with an extreme imagination, he ALSO suffers from bouts of amnesia. Hmm.

As hard as it may be, it’s time to recruit Susie into the Calvin Brigade.

We should have some sort of contest for people who don’t know how this ends to correctly guess the ending.

Is Calvin actually showing some genuine concern for Susie here by warning her of the Snow Goon? It’s more like him to want to see her attacked.

Snow goons leave Susie alone because they have discriminating tastes.

“You mean there’s MORE?”

HERE WE GO:Freedom’s just another word for not caring about the quality of your work

Questionable choice of ammo, Calvin…did you not learn from your previous attempt to pelt him with snowballs? https://www.gocomics.com/calvinandhobbes/2020/12/31?ct=v&cti=2208697

Zaphod Beeblebrox was getting lonely….

I sense a battle brewing.

Attack now Calvin while they are still a squad…hit their sergeant first.

Sure Susie shouldn’t be glad they’re not going after her this time?

Cue The Sorcerer’s Apprentice.

It’s nice to see Calvin and Suzy conversing courteously.

Reality slowly dawns.

Suzy is a very forgiving person. She doesn’t hold grudges, and quickly puts all of Calvin’s insults and attacks behind her.

your pitiful fortress can’t protect you, run, hide in susie’s room

AH, the plot thickens!

Never leave any kind of snowman alone; they’ll always multiply.

Marcia, Marcia, martians alert might be needed in Tigerton , Wisconsin.

50 snowballs, Susie Derkins standing within range, and no attack? Now you know how serious this snow goon thing is!

Um; Cue the music of the ol’ Dragnet series: DUM, DEE, DUM DUM !!!

Self replicating artificial intelligence.

as someone has already mentioned… this is a GREAT arc

Cal, be nice to Susie. Valentine’s Day isn’t that far off.

oh boy

Wouldn’t it be great (or maybe not) to live, or at least visit the (wonderful/strange/awful – take your pick) universe that exists within Calvin’s head?

Now is a time for that “uh-oh” moment.

“Whom are you fighting?”

can’t wait to see tomorrow’s

Is this where Calvin gets the idea to sacrifice Susie to the snow goons in order to save himself and Hobbes?

Uh,… What do you mean, all those?!
