    Thank God, they did not puncture the baloon. That would have done it too !

    Hey Calvin. You did everything right. “Excuse me”, “Pardon me”, and shouted a warning AND balloons have right of way over powered flyers.
    That’s airmanship!

    Ducks should just duck off.

    Duck, Calvin!

    The ducks are in disarray;
    Why didn’t they veer away?

    Quack goes the duck = Honk goes the goose
    Beep Beep! goes Calvin

    I know the look well. I’ve gotten the evil eye from ducks many times.

    This is my favorite Calvin of all time, I have the last panel of one of the next couple days (cut out of the paper when it came out) on my bedroom wall, as a reminder about life and it’s possibilities.

    Pretty good air current.

  13. Leonardeuler

    Leonardeuler said, 3 months ago

    Yes, Carpetinwater9, Calvin seems pretty oscillating in that air current.

  14. LX013

    LX013 said, 3 months ago

    To Leonardeuler: Yes, it seems so, around the world in 80 days!

    You mean this story arc could take 80 days?

    While soaring to fantastic height
    Our hero interferes with flight
    But this awesome skill
    May get him killed
    With Hobbes nowhere in sight.

    It is only Calvin who can think of ducks blocking his flight path !!

    I do not remember this at all but I think this will wind up on Saturday It’s probably just a dream.

    Only Calvin could bring pandemonium to such a high level.

    ♠Lonewolf♠Genius_badge said, 3 months ago

    BC13–A fairly safe guess, I would say!!!

  22. ninmas

    ninmas said, 3 months ago

    i guess BC13, you haven’t seen the whole story, i have it in a book collection.

  23. BC13

    BC13Genius_badge said, 3 months ago

    Lonewolf

    You are right, but with Calvin’s imagination, he may just be trying to get out of a bath as we might often see spaceman spiff fighting off a space creature only to find he’s at the supper table or something.

    YES, thank heavens for THE BOOK!

    As I said, I don’t remember this, but I do have the authoritative C&H and I’m sure it’s in there. But I don’t want to spoil the fun by looking it up.

    I did something like that in an airplane, once.

    Calvin beeps at the ducks…too funny!

    yyyguyGenius_badge said, 3 months ago

    BC13 my thought, exactly. i’ve read books of collected strips (this one, and others) and find i prefer to read them 1 day at a time, for some reason. it does seem more fun that way.

    if looks could kill, when i retired and told our building manager exactly what i thought of him, my son would e an orphan

    Duck off, yerself, dude!

    Would you like your Christmas goose early this year?

    Wildmustang1262 said, 3 months ago

    Did Calvin fly with that balloon make it to go around the world in 80 days?

    I just flew in and my arms are killing me.
    So are the callouses on my hands. ;-)

    I think I remember the one you’re talking about. I have it too, cut out from the newspaper. I thought it was the best description of life’s possibilities too, and it still applies today.

    Sara Gemino said, 3 months ago

    Suprisingly, none of the ducks thought the same thing!

  35. unemandarine

    unemandarine said, 3 months ago

    Yeah if looks could kill… Been there, and it’s not a nice feeling, but hang on Calvin, I know you’ll make it.

    ratlum said, 3 months ago

    On that last frame my hero is getting used to this flying thing so why fret when Calvin and I enjoy our self,s

    He’s lucky ducks don’t have pointy beaks.

    Every duck I’ve ever met–always the same look.

  39. Stede_Bonnet

    Stede_Bonnet said, 3 months ago

    Ducks fly in formation because it’s less difficult than following an individual course. Kudos to Calvin for his non-conformity!!!

  40. bandz

    bandz said, 3 months ago

    Good thing he flew THROUGH the ducks rather than UNDER them! That prevented them from getting the drop on him.

  41. lincolnhyde

    lincolnhyde said, 3 months ago

    Hmm - since Calvin is riding with the wind, and the ducks are flying, shouldn’t he be meeting them rather than passing them?

    It won’t take 80 days, but I barely remember this so IDK how long it will take.

    I think CH and DT outside of Bigtop, which I haven’t had the time to read, the most comments. My opionion only. I just like some of the commics and comments could actually rewrite the comics strips. Make more interesting in some cases, funny, or terrifing. All I know I have fun with this.
