Hobbes, there’s a current bush about 50 meters to the left of Calvin.
Gweedo Murray said, 15 days ago

They should’ve brought light sticks.

I think fearless explorer Spaceman Spiff should be helping them out with exploring/surviving the “NEW PLANET”
sjoujke said, 15 days ago

Boy his little red wagon sure holds a lot, but if Hobbes had really had it together he would have brought a flashlight.

BinaryWiener said, 15 days ago

Mars doesn’t have water (last time I checked) so what are they going to drink?
jukeofurl said, 15 days ago

@BinaryWiener—exactly. But as we all know that is secondary to Mars first need—women….

All is possible in the theater of the mind.

Hey, what about monsters ? Oh,yes, the night light will shrivel them up.
Macushlalondra said, 15 days ago

I wonder how long it’s gonna take them to get bored.
Stede_Bonnet said, 15 days ago

I present for your consideration: “The Nightlight”.

Another of the many fine products which exist solely because someone found a way to market “fear”.

“Fear”. It’s the best product ever! ;-)

mende3309 said, 15 days ago

I’m sure Hobbes packed the tuna!
treBsdrawkcaB said, 15 days ago

mwachowski - They’re going to brush their teeth with the candy bars.

BinaryWiener - Yes, Mars DOES have water! See http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/odyssey/newsroom/pressreleases/20030219a.html
and
http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap050401.html

Calvin & Hobbes left earth because they said that the grown-up had polluted it. So… What are he & Hobbes going to do to Mars if they stay? Human & tiger waste, candy bars, empty tuna cans, etc.

Look what pot is calling the kettle “black”…

Yes, the boys forgot a source of electricity, proper nutrition, tools & fuel to cook with (to at least melt the Martian ice), desalinization system, oxygen, Radiation-protective suits, a habitat with somewhere to sleep, a plan to grow their own food, etc.

In reality, Calvin’s probably in his sandbox, daydreaming again.
treBsdrawkcaB said, 15 days ago

Sorry - “candy bar WRAPPERS,…”
Stuart Gathman said, 15 days ago

Reminds me of “Never Cry Wolf”, where the bureaucrats pack plenty of light bulbs for the hero’s stint in the Artic wilderness.
ed-in-toledo said, 15 days ago

They should have brought a solar powered night light…
bmonk said, 15 days ago

Head back to the lander–maybe it’ll have an outlet…
Randy Ready said, 15 days ago

He should be homesick in two comic strips, the cause; out of tuna or under attack from Martians or The Martians smell the tuna and kick them out.
grazer said, 15 days ago

Perhaps our next Mars probe will capture pictures of a rusty wagon, some corroded cans, and a few bones.
Bargrove said, 15 days ago

So there is no place to plug it in? Next time

you need to remember a plug so there will be.
ratlum said, 15 days ago

It is easy to forget something ,but an electric outlet !
BC13 said, 15 days ago

I’d starve on their diet. Tuna is good for the garbage, but not my taste buds.
VistaBill said, 15 days ago

jukeofurl said, “@BinaryWiener—exactly. But as we all know that is secondary to Mars first need—women….”

Not in Calvin’s case. All he’d need right now is Susie Derkins or his mother to appear.

We got plenty of incoming, but where we gonna put the outgoing?

“In reality, Calvin’s probably in his sandbox, daydreaming again.”
——————————————————-
Did you really say “In reality”??? Really? In reality, Calvin is a set of contrasting pixels on a visual display. Or perhaps, more accurately, a few tiny electrical impulses in the synapses of Waterson’s brain. But I’m sure that Bill W. would be proud to know that you have become so thoroughly immersed in his imagination that you’ve come to consider it “reality”!

Do you suppose Calvin will ever ask “What is The Matrix?”
Ushindi said, 15 days ago

jukeofurl remembered this: Mars Needs Women
Susan001 said, 15 days ago

They forgot the most important thing–TOILET PAPER!
I doubt they’ll find any on Mars.
OldHipster said, 15 days ago

YEAH! According to The Philosophy of Mr Natural, “Kids! Don’t forget toilet paper to wipe your blinkity blank with!”

You can fill in the blinkity blank with whatever you want.

Ya know?
ogogogo823 said, 15 days ago

I wonder what will happen when they run out of tuna….
Hirshhorn said, 15 days ago

Baaaaad things
