Hell hath no fury like a girl who has been hit with a slushball.

Was that a fwisshing expedition?
paperbucket said, about 1 month ago

She’s lucky Calvin didn’t put a rock inside the slush ball.
sjoujke said, about 1 month ago

Calvin should know….if you can’t outrun the opposition, don’t fire the slushball.
Carmy said, about 1 month ago

I like how Calvin had to think about it. As if!
Yukoner said, about 1 month ago

Love the popped eyes in panel 10. BRILLIANT!!
LuvH8 said, about 1 month ago

Yeah Susie! But I don’t think Calvin has to worry about one measley little snowball compared to his other naughty deeds.

This one’s a classic, one of the best Calvin/Hobbes strips ever. I’ve seen it many times and it still makes me snorfle.

Madruga said, about 1 month ago

You live only once!…and only in the moment right now :D
Grog said, about 1 month ago

Santa’s watching you too, Suzie.

I’d like to get a sign that says gone fwisshhhing.

haha, I love panel 10. Even the mittens pop out!
Miss.Fit said, about 1 month ago

Calvin actually thought about it… ahahahahahahaah…..
Macushlalondra said, about 1 month ago

What’s worse is when they jump you and put the slushball down your back. Ooooh, that’s cold!
Lewreader said, about 1 month ago

Susie, try to understand Calvin. I been trying for years
Susan001 said, about 1 month ago

I’m glad Susie tackled Calvin herself instead of crying to her mommy.
A real liberated woman in the making!
UK_Aspie said, about 1 month ago

Come on guys - it’s the first time he actually hit her. That must be worth something.
Randy Ready said, about 1 month ago

Left handedness is the sign of the Devil in some parts of the world. I wonder if Calvin’s’ mother is named Rosemary? That would answer many questions.

“Santa’s going to skip this block for years.”
Mine too Calvin!
pearlandpeach said, about 1 month ago

wonderful!!
jrbj said, about 1 month ago

Randy Ready: not only is Calvin’s mother named Rosemary, but his father’s name is Lou Cypher.

FWISSHHH! ZINNG WHAP! What a title for a song? Now I wish I hadn’t said that because I’m going to have that running around in my head while I’m in church and the Praise and Worship team is singing…
rikw2 said, about 1 month ago

Can you imagine if these two grew up and married and poor Susie had to live with Calvin and (brace yourself) Son of Calvin
cleokaya said, about 1 month ago

On Christmas Day Calvin will be FWISSHHH ZING that he hadn’t thrown the snowball.

Reminds me of when I was young and I would get in trouble for something. My dad would sit me down and invariably would say “Didn’t you stop to think that perhaps doing such and such would get you into trouble?’” I would look at him and say “yes.” But that didn’t stop me from doing it anyway.
Me_Again said, about 1 month ago

YOU ROCK, SUSIE!
kittenpah said, about 1 month ago

I have two little granddaughters almost that age. One would now be sitting in the snow screaming bloody murder, the other one would have nailed him while he was thinking about it.
hausof7mau said, about 1 month ago

Maybe Susie might consider that Calvin is her punishment for being a bad little girl. Or if you’re the Karmic persuasion (sp) that she is being otherwise tested.
grazer said, about 1 month ago

LOL—this one reminds me of another Calvin snowball classic….

First panel shows a fiendishly grinning Calvin fondling a big snowball as some unsuspecting victim approaches. He asks himself, “Should I, or shouldn’t I?”

Next panel shows him giving the snowball a mighty hurl while gleefully proclaiming, “Too late—I DID!!”
bandz said, about 1 month ago

“Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned,” or a spirited girl hit in the head by a slushball. Go get ‘em girl!!

To paraphrase W.S. Gilbert’s line in “The Mikado,” “Her object all sublime, she did achieve this time, to make the punishment fit the crime, the punishment fit the crime.”

Yes I forgot to mention yesterday that I’m in upstate NY. This is our second bad cold snap of below zero temperatures lasting a week or more with 50 mph winds in many years. We had the last subzero 2 weeks during Christmas and through New Year’s Day this year. Compared to yesterday it’s alot warmer because it’s 11:00 AM and it’s 7 degrees above zero. I’m definitely praying for spring!
When I was a little one of my guy friends (I was the only girl in the neighborhood) hit me in the face with a slushball. He thought it was a riot until I got him back with one right in the ear. I felt victorious until he ran home crying. He was so upset that his Mom said he didn’t want me to come in. I told Mom the whole story and we made him a plate of brownies for me to bring over as an apology. He wasn’t as mad as he was embarrassed that I made him cry in front of the other guys. Growing up I always wished I was a guy to fit in better but I learned on that day and others, that it was good to be a girl because nobody laughs when you cry!

Ahhh Calvin…Ahhh Susie…can’t you see that they’re in love!
propellermario said, about 1 month ago

I read all of them. I bet hobbes is singing:badboy badboy whatya’ gonna do? whatya’ gonna’ do when they come fo’ you.

I bet calvin “hates” susie
zerotsm said, about 1 month ago

This is a good strip this Sunday. As far as the weather around here, we are still slightly warmer than average for the whole heating season (WB/Scranton PA) as of today. The January thaw lasted over 10 days here. We are also just missing the storms that are pounding Delaware and Maryland.

I would bet Hobbes would be waiting for Calvin to hear all about it, and save it as a holiday in the annals of the G.R.O.S.S. club…..
mrslukeskywalker said, about 1 month ago

Considering that Susie always gets her shots at Calvin in quite well, and mostly before he even deserves them, I’m glad Calvin got a free one right on her head. She deserves it for always being a such a little snoot.

I remember this one from its original run. Sunday Calvins were the best of all the Sunday strips.

Look at the way his pupils popped out! LOLOLOLOLOLOL!
GretchensMom said, about 1 month ago

Dino-1: Loved your story!

It never ceases to amaze me how some people can’t take it anywhere near as well as they can give it! He started it, you finished it … and then YOU were the one that had to apologize to HIM (and with a plate of brownies no less!!!) all because he went crying to his mommy and you didn’t!
Parethed said, about 1 month ago

In panel 4, he’s got the snowball cocked back in his right hand, then in panel 8 he lets loose with his left hand; is he ambidexterous? Whatever–I’m glad he beaned Susie anyway…I always tried to bean my sister…she deserved it…

Should watch it Calvin Susie is a real snow cat
kab2rb said, about 1 month ago

Dino- I watch GMA since I only work pt afternoon in an office setting. And they show the weather a lot.
For NYE I felt sorry for the all the crowd welcoming the new year for they looked very cold. I also enjoy your stoies you put humor in them.
Hear in KS especially middle SC we had snow that came in Thurs night to almost all of Friday and where I traveled to work the depth of snow was different in some areas where further north they received more. Where my mom lives she is 10min by hwy and got more then what we did. Still very cold.
yankeewhaler said, about 1 month ago

What we have here is a failure to communicate…., he picks on her, she beats him up and he continues to bother her.
I guess this is what Calvin likes until some changes are made.

Are there any official GROSS membership clubs around?
Saucy1121 said, about 1 month ago

This has been my pup’s first experience with snow. I was throwing snowballs for her to catch. Loved watching her expression as she couldn’t find them once they hit the ground, or broke apart when she did manage to catch them.
Sean Ewing said, about 1 month ago

I think Susie has some anger issues. But then, I’d be angry too if I got pwned with a snowball.
propellermario said, about 1 month ago

I wonder why sometimes calvin sort of likes susie, (like the time when calvin was the only person that didn’t sign up for baseball and he was seesawing with susie) when now he is her arch enemy.
M Smokey said, about 1 month ago

where’s Hobbes when you need him?
Praxsis said, about 1 month ago

AHHHH….Young Love….
bunnyface (bmonk) said, about 1 month ago

I love that, even when he hits, he loses.

Reminds me of the time he got Susie good, and she covered her eyes, and said, “Oh no! If you find my eye, they might be able to put it back in!”

“Did you really lose an eye? Can I see? Where is it?”

(as she hits him a good one, and he lands in the snowbank), “Right there, you turd!”
