Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for February 09, 2018

You can now terrorize a neighborhood — of mice.

Another backfire.

Be careful what you wish for.

Mass matters, Calvin.

Like a bat!1 Tiger don’t change!!

At least he isn’t an owl.

What?

3rd time lucky?

Do-over! I want a 12 foot wingspan!

Time to rethink the whole terrorizing thing!

When I was a kid, the pterodactyl was our national bird.

Reminds me of the movie “Bedazzled”. Be careful what you wish for!

Dude – you’re still a kid…

Couldn’t Calvin use that thing on himself?

Ok Calvin, time to give up on the transmogrifier gun and borrow Homer’s toaster.

Aw, the Calvin pterodactyl looks cute enough to be a pet! ;D

The joke is still on Calvin. In a few million years he will evolve into a chicken.

I’ll just note that there were ones that small (c.f. last month’s Nat Geo)…

OH! I get it hahaha! he turned himself into a small dinosaur!!! Rad!

A 200 foot tall Sabertooth Alley Catus. Now, there’s pause for thought.

He’s actually might be a hen

Thing is, pterodactyls WERE tiny, about the size of a large turkey and a rounded head just like he now has. I think Calvin actually wanted to be a Pteranodon, one of the HUGE pterosaurs, the ones with the long crest out the back of their heads.

Mosquitoes are tiny and yet they can kill. Think about it.

there actually were many smaller pterasaur species, especially in the early Mesozoic, larger species appear later in the fossil record.

actually the first Terasaurs were quite small in size…
