Whether a poignant look at serious family issues or a round of time-travel (with the aid of a well-labeled cardboard box), Calvin and Hobbes will astound and delight you.

This could get real ugly…

The drawback of the transmogrifier: the knowledge of the shooter.
Gweedo Murray said, 8 months ago
I wonder why he didn’t pronounce it: transmorgifier ?

Calvin needs to have that exact look on his face when the rampage begins…

Who knows what you might end up turning into Calvin?

good thing calvin has quick reflexes
prasrinivara said, 8 months ago
On the nail, cleokaya (spoiler: the thread of these strips will end in a “transmogrification fight” between Calvin and Hobbes….). For marg, the right word is “will” rather than “could”.
Northwoodser said, 8 months ago
Here, let me show you how to do this!

prasrinivara, thanks for the heads up. The upcoming threads will be a real blast. I can’t wait.

Now if Calvin had had to do a report on dinosaurs instead of planets…

No, Hobbes, Pterodacytls aren’t bugs, bats are bugs! Sheesh, don’t you know anything?

I thought Pterodactyls were reptiles and not dinosaurs…. wait a min… this is Calvin!
attyush said, 8 months ago
Pterodactyls are gooey bugs that move very slowly. Now shoot Hobbes.
bmonk

Yes, technically pterodactyls are not dinosaurs, only a closely related order of reptiles. On the other hand, Calvin is, more or less, in the region of six years old. Like any six-year-old, he has some remarkable knowledge, in areas he’s interested in, but not in others.
Still, given his interest in dinosaurs, it is perhaps odd he doesn’t know the distinction.
OTOH, were Calvin to be a three foot tall fly, think of how he could gross everyone out! Yum, bugs!

Calvin probably does know the distinction… this is just not the time to be concerned with details!

In Pogo, the name of that creature was spelled (and pronounced) “p-tooie-daffodil”. And that’s how I think of it to this day.
(I just signed in for the first time, because I couldn’t resist making this comment!)

I’ve been reading everyone’s comments for months now - just felt a little shy about posting one myself - couldn’t think of anything to say.

LOL!
“then you can transmorgrify me back to a boy when the National Guard comes”!!!!
grammahotsho said, 8 months ago
I’m glad you posted RinaFarina! I loved Pogo and you brought back great memories!
madampresiden12 said, 8 months ago
or worse yet, Hobbes could tansmogrify Calvin into a good little boy who gets good grades, does his homework correctly and obeys his parents. Calvin srhould really be afraid.

get out while you still can Calvin, before hobbes turns you into a good boy, or worse off a bug.
prasrinivara said, 8 months ago
madampresident12, I think that requires an add-on accessory of “ethicator” (transmogrifier-gun Hobbes holds is the bare-bones Beta version).
bmonk
said,

Or the clone box, when there were six Calvins running around…
prasrinivara said, 8 months ago
Well, bmonk–that’s another strip thread entirely (where he redesigns the clone-box with an ethicator; first time, he had transmogrified the clone-box into a transmogrifier to get rid of the six clones)
Toonster said, 8 months ago
Shoot it Hobbes!

Rina welcome! If you’ve been reading comments for a while, why be shy? There’s all sorts of people on here from the normal to the bizarre!
Hey Marg, are we going to need another couch?
mrprongs said, 8 months ago
Flying reptile. Not a dinosaur. Just like how bats are not bugs.
DreamScourge said, 8 months ago
Rina welcome! The great thing about the comments is no one knows who you are, tho’ I must admit that thought doesn’t always stop me from feeling self-conscious lol
I think they are watching me as we speak
Burgundy2 said, 8 months ago
Rina - that p-tooi-daffodil - that so cracked me up!!! Can’t wait to borrow that line!
Don’t be shy - you’ll find as you post more, it gets more comfortable.
