   Calvin’s parents might want to have his mental health checked. This sounds like a very unhealthy fantasy.

   I read Calvin and Hobbes for the strong philosophical references. :P

    In the C&H 10th anniversary book, Watterson uses this strip as a prime example of how the Sunday format he was forced to use messed up his work. He had to cram a lot of action into little frames at the end, and use a lot of space for nothing at the beginning.

    As we know, he later insisted on being freed of this forced format.

    I love the “font” he drew the letters with in this one, and the art.

    Architect??? No, with that attitude, more likely a CEO!!!

    I think God and Calvin actually have a lot in common. Ever stood outside on a starry night looking up at God’s leftover tinkertoys??

    Myself, I read it for the death, destruction and mayhem!

    Calvin will grow up to be okay…after years of therapy.

    Calvin wants to be the devil, not God.

    Judging by the third panel, Calvin lives in the DC Comics universe.

    I had a younger cousin like Calvin and my mom said they either turn out to be astronauts or end up in prison, because nothing fazes them- my cousin isn’t an astronaut (or an architect) but luckily he turned out OK!

    Dutchboy1 says:”Calvin’s parents might want to have his mental health checked. This sounds like a very unhealthy fantasy.” I say Calvin has normal mental health, he embraces his dark side. Nietzche warned not to cast out your demons, lest you throw away the best part of yourself.
    
    In “Homicide: Life on the Street,” Pembleton tells Baylis you can’t truly love yourself unless you embrace your evil side as well as your good side.

    Calvin will name the underworld he created the Fourth Reich.

    Now i understand the world. We were created by an over-imaginative six year old with a severe god pathos. Now I see why we have problems as a planet!

    Thanks for pointing that out. I heard that Watterson originally had issues with the comic strip peoples.

    Also, nice icon.
