Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for October 12, 2011

SNERK!!!

Thanks for cloth!

Never looked better kid.

Is it any wonder, Calvin is an omly child?

A few more holes and he looks like Charlie Brown at Halloween

Something is on that plate he doesn’t like………….

Calvin’s one of a kind…

The reason listens to appropriate good….a kind boy

It’s good that Halloween is coming…Calvin won’t need a mask.

Assuming that his face still looks that way when Halloween comes.

Not quite – then he’d have a paper bag over his head with “Aints” written on it.

Are you calling Mom a liar, Dad? Tread carefully…

“Wrong! Your ears you keep, and I’ll tell you why. So that every shriek of every child at seeing your hideousness will be yours to cherish, every babe that weeps at your approach, every woman who cries out: “Dear God, what is that thing?” will echo in your perfect ears. That is what “to the pain” means. It means I leave you in anguish, wallowing in freakish misery, forever. " Westley, The Princess Bride

Do you want him? Did not doubt you would either.

…dad’s comment in the fourth panel comes with the silent “Not yet…”

Hehehe!

But I’ve got news for Calvin and Dad. Acting can actually affect you. I’ve heard that Hugh Laurie, the actor who plays House, from limping so long as that character, has actually developed a limp. (Or so early reports say. . . . OTOH, he’s stayed another two years plus since then.)

Now that I’ve finally seen “Elephant Man” this comic makes more sense!

This is a hard sell with Dad.

@dhawk @fishchik Thanks! Glad to know fellow fans! LOL! :-)

Well if your face has froze Calvin, How can you speak without sounding muffled?

LOL LOL. So cute.

Nice, Coffee-Turtle. His parents should just give him to Suzy for a birthday present!

This is Calvin’s interpretation of wearing a white tie. His father should get out his camera and photograph Calvin’s expressions and get-ups for the amusement of the judge if they ever decide to disown him…..

Some of us like to do this at Halloween. It started with the communities that grew up around Pibgorn, and another that settled at the Big Top. (Avatars also tend to change to match.)

From gargoyle — I mean, hunkypunk! — to the “Elephant Man” . . . faces that only a mother could love!

I got a rock.

i actually used to believe this myself…
