Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for March 28, 2020

This won’t last for long.

good thing a social worker wasn’t called

No getting locked out of the house tonight, I guess.

Or until Calvin can think of something mischievous…….

This is the most normal thing in this strip so far. (At least to me)

That’s his antidote?

This smells of a planned stratagem…

Calvin has “Pavlov’s Dog” syndrome.

Calvin calls it “sitting in the middle of the floor and looking at the wall”. New Yorkers call it “sheltering in place”.

No other ideas to entertain Calvin?

There’s a good boy…

Hobbes will start something ai am sure.

Calvin’s perfect opportunity for a Zen Moment.

In a “no tolerance for any shenanigans” kind of mood, huh, Dad?

Calm before the storm .

If Calvin really wanted to get to M & D, he’d ask Ros for help with his homework and go to bed on time.

How many “Rosalyn” storylines were there? I only remember about four.

Like that’s ever gonna happen, Rosalyn!

I the second panel calvins life flashed before his eyes Good thinking tho to not have to die in the first hour but I think he’s gonna let loose

Could it be Calvin has finally learned his lesson? Stay tuned.

“OK. It’s now bedtime.”

Hey Doc, I remember the Quatermass Sci-Fi movies from the 50’s-60’s, pretty good stuff.

It can’t be that easy….

Han Solo: “I got a bad feeling about this…”

DCFS would be all over this one today. The Dad threatens to slit his kid’s throat? (But I certainly understand!)

My dad never actually beheaded me.

That is international sign language for “curtains for you boy!”

When I was six, I understood that gesture to be a threat, but I didn’t know it implied throat slitting. In fact, the first time I tried it, I dragged my finger across my upper lip.

don’t give in, Calvin — remember only the good die young…

or mabey go out and stare at the grass
