A most noble ambition…
Mishka said, 3 months ago

I bet he’ll do it .
rayannina said, 3 months ago

I bet someone’s skull will get dented – but not Susie’s.
sjoujke said, 3 months ago

I hope he can run like the wind.

Aaaaaaah….to be young and foolish…
Fer Lefer said, 3 months ago

The right tool for the job…

Neither the buckeye, Susie, nor Calvin will look very pretty after that event… Good thing Hobbes is there!
jimbob327 said, 3 months ago

The caveman theory
Yukoner said, 3 months ago

Calvin, is that 50 feet vertical or horizontal?
Radish said, 3 months ago

Is that like playing conkers?
comYics said, 3 months ago

Inspirational.
Johanan Rakkav said, 3 months ago

Does that mean Calvin and Hobbes takes place in Ohio, the state where I spent my childhood?

That’s cold, Calvin. And for you, probably impossible; you can’t even throw a snowball that far most of the time.
♠Lonewolf♠ said, 3 months ago

Somehow I think you will be running from Suzie AND that marble!

G’Morning Carmy, Marg & Johanan

Ouch!!
watcha said, 3 months ago

Calvin, do you judge that to be a safe distance after you dented Susies scull?
Grog said, 3 months ago

50 ft. is not enough distance, Calvin.

You’ll never stay off Santa’s “naughty list”, Cal.
krisch said, 3 months ago

He wants to have his buckeye and throw it too..
BinaryWiener said, 3 months ago

I had to look it up… a buckeye is a large seed from a tree of the horse-chestnut family.

IIRC, Calvin once flung a pinecone at Susie but she sent it right back at 95 mph!
Miss.Fit said, 3 months ago

ahahaha….

@Yukoner : I was thinking the same…. :P

My guess is his going to get a piece of coal this Christmas…
rshive said, 3 months ago

The start of trouble, as always…
jrbj said, 3 months ago

You need a good wrist rocket, Calvin. From only 50 feet that will let you permanently plant that buckeye in Susie’s head.

Oh I know, I’ve offended every PC’er in the bunch.

I’m just teaching Calvin that if you’re going to do a thing you have to do it right or just don’t bother doing it at all.

Maybe Miss Wormwood’s!
Richard said, 3 months ago

From 50 ft. that buckeye will cool susie and that will be that.
Ray C said, 3 months ago

And it’s pretty, too! A dual-use buckeye!
jbmetalmonster said, 3 months ago

The inquisitive Badger always pondered the question:
‘What is a buckeye?’

Not a doe eye.
kab2rb said, 3 months ago

I would not much to say where today’s strip is concerned I think Calvin is being a typical boy.

I waited too late was also too busy for Dec 12 comments where Hobbes is snoring and keeping Calvin awake and Calvin winds down on the floor.
Here for me and I don’t like to give myself away but I let my husband sleep, my husband mother told me she use to poke her husband to tell him to quit snoring, I can’t do that. I gave up a job and he work to raise our two kids. I would either two things my husband would go to bed early and I would wait usually an hour and I would read or watch some tapes. Or if I could not get to sleep I would just read a book. Good way to get novels done. It would take until 3am before I could consider going back to bed. I can’t stand the noise and am a light sleeper and when nerves start happening, which means music in my mind, means no sleep. Also I have to leave caffeen along no problem there not additiced. So husbands this is one wife that lost sleep to a husband snooring.

a neighbor girl did that to my brother with a clay brick when he was 7 , he still has a wicked scar on the side of his head and that was nearly 60 years ago
billdi said, 3 months ago

This is I wish thing not a do thing
#1 redskins fan said, 3 months ago

jbmetalmonster- wormwood is a plant used to make absinthe, a licorice-flavored liquor with a high alcohol content. When I was stationed in Japan, absinthe contained opium. So, I supppose M.s Wormwood must mess with Calvin’s mind! <:-)

Well, this year a Buckeye is a team somehow able to win. No idea how they managed to beat The Badgers with defense only.
Susan001 said, 3 months ago

When I was a kid, part of our fun was collecting chestnuts in the fall.
However, there were a few who would drill holes in them and run a cord through the holes, making a sort of bolo.
Much deadlier and more accurate than just throwing them.
SumoSasquatch said, 3 months ago

There’s a Calvin in every child!
Haha. This is great.

beachbum56, thank you, but it’s only up for St. Lucia’s Day. Merry Christmas to you, too.
johnnydoc5 said, 3 months ago

A buckeye is going to be someone reeling over how badly they could lose another bowl game come January.
Awesome-o said, 3 months ago

A nice Buckeye, perfect shot to dent Susie’s skull with it within 50 feet Calvin.
DDFENCE EMET First said, 3 months ago

@Strodgers:

Good defense always wins - as you can tell I personally endorse a Double D-Fense strategy.

But really - what is a Buckeye?
DDFENCE EMET First said, 3 months ago

Is it St. Lucia Day?

Hello to any friends we have left in St. Lucia - at one time we had a lot.

Bargrove said, 3 months ago

Saint Lucy is most beautiful with her crown of six

lighted candles. Buckeyes are nuts, alright, but

you must not eat them. The Chestnuts roasting by

an open fire are Chinese chestnuts. Very good,

but they are not Buckeyes.
katdreams said, 3 months ago

Not only is Calvin a boy, he’s about 115% boy. I love the dichotomy ‘this is pretty, I’ll use it to hurt Susie.’ So very 6 years old!
pintcape said, 3 months ago

don’t do it calvin,no good will come of it.
jbmetalmonster said, 3 months ago

i hate 2 interupt, but #1 redskins fan,
i no what wormwood really is, what i want to no is why thats a name! could ya imagine if your name was wormwood?! just say “hay whats yr name kid, o mynames jeff wormwood” idk…
james the great and ... said, 3 months ago

BinaryWeiner thank you for that as I had NO idea what a buckeye was and I am TOO lazy to look it up and Yukoner that would be 50 feet vector. Actually I think Calvin’s got about as much chance with the buckeye as he did with the snowball he saved until July.
medamo said, 3 months ago

You know Hobbes is sweet on Susie, Calvin is just yanking his chain.
Cameloo said, 3 months ago

A pretty buckeye for a pretty girl
