   Oh Max, don’t you love your visit. I love the joy on Calvin’s face.

   I would think Max would find it funny also.

   Looking to uncle Max in the last panel I think he already regrets his visit. Maybe he thinks: never again in thousand million billion years !!

   You must be right because after Max’s one visit he is never seen again.

   It must’ve been a whoopie cushion. Notice how mom looks soooooo embarrassed.

    If you can’t laugh at a whoopie cushion, you’re six feet under.

    I can understand Max being surprised but, Mom and Dad should have known.

    That should be a fart thing to make Max humiliating after he sits on the chair. Calvin’s parents look so embarrassed! LOLs! X-D

    Poor Uncle Max….what was he thinking when he decided to visit? No wonder he never visits again.

    @grazer, that’s only because the Hardware Store doesn’t have any flamethrowers in stock this month.

    Max is a bachelor for life after this visit.

    For everyone asking, he sat on a whoopee cushion.

    Runar; Some of those “exhaust” lines look like musical notes.

    The character, Max, was played by Lexington Matthews, a comicstrip character actor. He has appeared in numerous strips in minor roles. Aside from his brief appearance in Calvin and Hobbes, he is best known for his portrayal as Odie’s owner, Lyman.

    He trained at the prestigious Eyeceum in London, and currently is an artist-in-residence at the Omaha Insitute of Sequential Arts.

    Northwoodser: I guess I am already 6 feet under! Just never have cared for “bathroom” humor of any kind. Not a prude, just one of those things I find overwhelming gross and childish. Little children laugh at such things because they don’t know any better and haven’t learned public manners. Yes, I know. The bunch of you will jump all over me for being “snootie”, or maybe it’s “snotty”! ??? But, I don’t really care! So there!

    To Calvin and his imagination he’s real. To the rest of the world he’s the stuffed toy that he actually is.

    BW always refused to say. That’s one of the may reasons he never allowed C&H to be commercialized - a stuffed Hobbes doll might just confirm his status.
