   1. This means Calvin would be around 27 now. I wonder how he would’ve turned out. What would’ve happen to Hobbes?

   This is one of the rare Calvin And Hobbes strips that is very much a product of it’s time. Usually Watterson’s writing is timeless and universal. But by specifically mentioning the year in the strip he places the gag within a dated context.

    I wasn’t even alive in 1988…. but I think Calvin and Hobbes are for readers of all age, and are still relevant 20 years later!

    The comic is still essentially timeless. Mentioning the year is merely a technical error.
