For the longest time I never got the joke here. Every time I read this particular strip, I never got it… until now. I just got the joke. HAR HAR!!… Uh… Yeah.
I understand the joke to be that they being a gang of kids duffed up a kid called Filthy Rich. He was not rich but dirty. Have a misunderstood this totally?
what’s that dark figure in the trees? looks like Death looking over Calvin and Hobbes as their going down the hill towards their unavoidable disaster at the bottom

I heard it was Dirty Mark and his side kicks. They really cleaned up:)

Welcome Home Sir. My father was in the 199th, Echo Co. 69-70. Thank you for everything.

Maybe they splashed him with water to get him clean.

Did you hear about the streaker who ran through church service on Sunday. They caught him by the organ.

Took me awhile to get this – I actually thought they rolled Moe…

In Calvin’s mind, having a whole dollar is filthy rich.

I thought I knew most everything about anatomy; where is the “Drinking Fountain” that they grabbed him by?

There was a kid like that in high school. We dragged him off and threw him in the shower, clothes and all. When he got out he smelled like a wet dog.

It might be a take-off on the comic character “Richie Rich”…

This one’s all the funnier to Bronies, as there’s a pony called Filthy Rich. He prefers to go by Mr. Rich.

Calvin has proven that he has what it takes to be a real stand-up guy.
