Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for November 05, 2009

Oh lordy!!!

Toothbrushes to get rid of the tuna breath!

Wont be long before Calvin takes his words back!!

Wasn’t this whole trip an outlet?

Outlet!

Wonder what would happen once they finished the tuna…

Good Luck with the outlet boys! Right next to the light switch!

toothbrushes but no toothpaste?

Hobbes, there’s a current bush about 50 meters to the left of Calvin.

I think fearless explorer Spaceman Spiff should be helping them out with exploring/surviving the “NEW PLANET”

Boy his little red wagon sure holds a lot, but if Hobbes had really had it together he would have brought a flashlight.

I love the imagination. Essentials for taking on your first trip to Mars

Mars doesn’t have water (last time I checked) so what are they going to drink?

@BinaryWiener—exactly. But as we all know that is secondary to Mars first need—women….

Who was it that forgot the Camera, the map and oh not to mention its all just Tuna!!!

With all the tuna, I wonder who brought the can opener.

so where the house

Tuna is good for heart!

Where’s the outhouse?

Should have packed an extension cord.

No worries… they can just shout lumos to the light…..

All is possible in the theater of the mind.

Hey, what about monsters ? Oh,yes, the night light will shrivel them up.

I wonder how long it’s gonna take them to get bored.

I present for your consideration: “The Nightlight”.

Another of the many fine products which exist solely because someone found a way to market “fear”.

“Fear”. It’s the best product ever! ;-)

Hobbes, just dig the outlet… where’s the shovel… wait, tigers don’t need one :o)

……. and Calvin forgot the chocolate - frosted - sugar - bombs !!!!!!!

good luck hobbes!

I’m sure Hobbes packed the tuna!

mwachowski - They’re going to brush their teeth with the candy bars.

BinaryWiener - Yes, Mars DOES have water! See http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/odyssey/newsroom/pressreleases/20030219a.html and http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap050401.html

Calvin & Hobbes left earth because they said that the grown-up had polluted it. So… What are he & Hobbes going to do to Mars if they stay? Human & tiger waste, candy bars, empty tuna cans, etc.

Look what pot is calling the kettle “black”…

Yes, the boys forgot a source of electricity, proper nutrition, tools & fuel to cook with (to at least melt the Martian ice), desalinization system, oxygen, Radiation-protective suits, a habitat with somewhere to sleep, a plan to grow their own food, etc.

In reality, Calvin’s probably in his sandbox, daydreaming again.

Sorry - “candy bar WRAPPERS,…”

Reminds me of “Never Cry Wolf”, where the bureaucrats pack plenty of light bulbs for the hero’s stint in the Artic wilderness.

They should have brought a solar powered night light…

Head back to the lander–maybe it’ll have an outlet…

He should be homesick in two comic strips, the cause; out of tuna or under attack from Martians or The Martians smell the tuna and kick them out.

Perhaps our next Mars probe will capture pictures of a rusty wagon, some corroded cans, and a few bones.

So there is no place to plug it in? Next time

you need to remember a plug so there will be.

It is easy to forget something ,but an electric outlet !

I’d starve on their diet. Tuna is good for the garbage, but not my taste buds.

Not in Calvin’s case. All he’d need right now is Susie Derkins or his mother to appear.

“In reality, Calvin’s probably in his sandbox, daydreaming again.” ——————————————————- Did you really say “In reality”??? Really? In reality, Calvin is a set of contrasting pixels on a visual display. Or perhaps, more accurately, a few tiny electrical impulses in the synapses of Waterson’s brain. But I’m sure that Bill W. would be proud to know that you have become so thoroughly immersed in his imagination that you’ve come to consider it “reality”!

Do you suppose Calvin will ever ask “What is The Matrix?”

jukeofurl remembered this: Mars Needs Women

I wonder what will happen when they run out of tuna….

Baaaaad things

If memory serves (again), short supplies will be the least of their worries…

What they really should have brought is Susy Derkins who I am sure has a more practical mind (and Mr Bunny to keep Hobbes company.) And Susan 001 I think the problem is only Calvin’s as tigers lick themselves clean. Yuck!

Aardvark359 - In the reality portion of the comic strip. Should have been obvious.

…just as when he’s Spaceman Spiff on distant planet Zorg battling aliens but you see that, in the “real” world, Calvin is daydreaming in Math class again.

how will they survive without CHOCOLATE COVERED SUGAR BOMBS AND A TV?!?!?good thing hobbes packed mars bars and tuna
