   Decorater red, Hobbes. The plastic bones made it much easier for the dinosauers to move around.

   Three fingered calvinosaur ? Hobbes’ look of scrutiny is just great !

   The calvinosaur A very rare species. Gosh I wonder how tall it will be when it it completed. I hope he don’t mess it up like he did that model plane.

   Love the excitement expressed in Calvin’s eyes in the first panel.

   Twenty years and C&H is still the best comic strip ever. I’m so glad I can re-live these strips one day at a time. I wonder what else Calvin and Hobbes will excavate from this buried trove of picnic trash that has transmorgified into a Calvinosaur dig.

   Okay, so Calvin has never seen or used a fork before? What does he eat with?

    I love the look on his face when he says “This could be a forearm and fingers”

    Hobbes, the colours are so that you can distinguish one species from another. It will also make it easier to assemble the various extinct fossils.

    It’s admirable to make a funny story with nothing but simple things which others don’t either look at!

    i’m waiting to see what the full calvinosaur is gonna look like

    I hope Calvin has some glue left over from his model

    The next stage of Australopithecus is Calvinosaur ….classic!

    The Calvinosaur was a rare species indeed. They’re lucky to have found one.

    DAHamilton, after 20 years it’s amazing that C&H get so many comments every day for every strip. It is a very good indication of how timeless C&H really is. You’re right - it’s one of the best ever!

    I can’t believe he doesn’t recognize a fork when he sees it but it’s more fun to use his imagination.

20. 

    green_engineer said, 5 months ago

    Macushlalondra - it must have something to do with having such a wild imagination that he misses the most obvious facts. Lol.

    Wolf family - best of luck with the move.

21. 

    cleokaya said, 5 months ago

    I don’t think Calvin misses the fact that he has found a fork or a bottle. I think he is just letting his imagination transform these items into what he wants them to be in this particular fantasy.

    I googled “Calvinosaur” and the only references are this cartoon and someone’s handle. When is some Bill Watterson fan actually going to name a critter this?

    SQUIDBREAKER said, 5 months ago

    Denial of failure is a pitiful thing.

    Better off asking your mom for Grant money after you clean up your room tomorrow, Calvin. Take today off.

    BC13 said, 5 months ago

    Jor-El, you really don’t want to know. You might say that he eats like some pre-historic creature himself.

25. 

    Silverpearl said, 5 months ago

    If you must be gone and can’t see Calvin for some reason, there is a calendar up in the right corner and you can also check “previous”. None of us want to miss any of this!!

    ..the ‘ol ‘Is a good old Calvin and Hobbes repeat better and a new lame Family Circle comic?’ arguement….I’ll split the difference and read Moderately Confused….

    rshive said: ”The Calvinosaur was a rare species indeed. They’re lucky to have found one.”

    Very true. Only 1 (one) ever existed….and that one only lasted from the time it was dug up until it’s discoverer’s bath time.

    WOW—I just now got this email from a dear old friend of mine, Merle Graffam, who I used to do amateur archeological digs with many years ago. This is no joke even though the timing is quite hilarious because of the ‘Calvinosaur’ storyline….

    He said: “Today, June 19, 2009 the dinosaur I found two miles from my house in 1999 (now housed until August at the Museum of Northern Arizona in Flagstaff) was officially named Nothronychus graffami to be noted as a new species forever more. I only had to wait 9 years.”

    Can ya dig it?—My old pal has a dinosaur named after him!
    Good going, Mr. Graffam!
    (You too, Calvin)

    JonD17 said, 5 months ago

    Jor-El and BC13, not too long ago there was a strip where calvin was being a T-Rex feasting on his fresh kill; diving in face first, of course, without even the aid of paws, claws or hands. When he comes up for air in the last panel, face covered with something very messy (maybe spaghetti), he is in a fancy restaurant with a ver chagrined Mom and Dad!

    ahhh aand here we take a rare look at the calvinosaur in its natrual habitat in calvins imagination

35. 

    pwdce said, 5 months ago

    If only we kept the imagination of a 6 year old forever. How great life would look. Lying on your back in the yard seeing things in the clouds. Digging up a fork, seeing things in the dark……..keep it up Calvin/Hobbes. Still the best strip ever.

    Plastic Fork will never rot.

    Kerovan said, 5 months ago

    Luck with the move Ladywolfe. If I remember right the next three strips are on this then he goes to a new storyline. But as long as you aren’t past 7 days, if you aren’t a genius, you can still back up and see them like Silverpearl said. Trust me it’ll be worth it.

    robquill said, 5 months ago

    Calvin and Hobbes are really getting into it, I can’t wait to see the Calvinosaur. Pehaps Steven Spielberg might be interested in their find. Utenilsaurus more like!

    Grazer quite something that you know the man - it must have been quite a honor for him.
    Wolf family best of luck on the move.
    My niece collected the tiny coffee spoons from McDonalds and played with them for hours. They became people, animals wherever her imagination tok her. But she wasn’t anywhere near as active as Calvin!

    Ladywolf, when you get to your new home, remember it’s not too late in the year yet to start a garden. (You said “house”; I’m assuming a yard.) Best way in the world to root yourself in a new place.

    Everybody, for Grazer’s friend’s pet, google:
    Therizinosaur—Mystery of the Sickle-Claw Dinosaur.
    Pretty!
