i also think that it’s amazing where calvin get’s all that snow. there aren’t any spots of grass showing on the whole lawn. another question I have—how does he lift up the middle section and the head to get them in the right place when he’s barely as tall as the lowest section?
My Dad would have had me working in a mill or some field real young if at 5 yrs old I could have figured how to lift that snow to make such beautiful snowmen,but thats why I love Calvin.
I’d like to see Calvin having his snowmen doing the “PledgeOf Allgiance” out by the flagpole in the front yard. That would be great too! Calvin builds the best snowmen I’ve ever seen…
This was a great strip, and there were a lot of really funny comments today.@Commentator explained todays strip the best.Regarding the whole “Where did Calvin get all that snow” question, think of it as “Comic strip physics” or simply, Calvin didn’t build all those snowmen, Bill Watterson drew them.

I hope Calvin can keep ‘em under control! I’d hate to see the Snow Goons return!

You may as well inspect the troops while you’re at it.

I’d do that for myself.Forget waiting for a kid to do it.

Where does Calvin get all the snow for all the snowmen?

Yes, yes, Dad hates this!I don’t know why, but he hates it!
Happy, happy, happy!!! Premium Member over 12 years ago
i never could build a snowman that looked like a “snowman”. i’m impressed that he could build a whole row of them.
nancyroy2 over 12 years ago
that little Calvin sure has a lot of stamina… I tried to do 5 snowmen(the whole family) and only got to 4!

I love Calvin’s snow art. Give that boy an NEA grant!

The kid has ingenuity, you gotta give him that.

Dad thinks it ‘snow’ good!

He should have put them in front of a local police station. The police would be thrilled and they’d call his dad to ‘thank’ him.

Yo dad, thats what happens when you make Calvin do his homework.
bmonk over 12 years ago
Calvin isn’t good at routine tasks, but for a special message like this one, he’s all dedication.
obeney2000 over 12 years ago
Love it. I would also love to live in a place that gets enough snow to do this!!!

doesn’t Calvin have an “attention” deficit disorder?

If only Calvin could play “Hail to the Chief” for him as he passes the troops in review.

Making all those snow goons made me realize that Calvin has the energy level of Hoover Dam…

I think his dad feels he’s being mocked.
Gretchen's Mom over 12 years ago
I can’t imagine why Calvin’s dad would hate this. After all . . . he’s being given a 6-snowman-salute!!!!! That’s real respect if you ask me!

I know why Dad hates that!! He doesn’t like being embarrassed OR he doesn’t like it to look like he is a snowman army trainer.
Thomas Linquist over 12 years ago
A sign of respect from Calvin is rare enough. Take it as it looks, rather than as it was intended!

If you like Calvin’s snowmen, search YouTube for “A Very Calvin and Hobbes Christmas”. Trust me, you’ll love it- I don’t know how the guy did it!
