cleokaya said, 5 months ago

And I can guarantee the result is going to be the same as well.

DO IT DO IT!!!

At least Calvin’s blowing his own horn.
pouncingtiger said, 5 months ago

In the fifth panel, Hobbes tackles Calvin, from the side of the bed, in the nick of time (for the sake of Mom and Dad).

A trumpets blast
The call to repast
Calvin signals reveille
In elephant form
He exceeds the norm
Why is he so evilly?
baslim_the_begger said, 5 months ago

LOL!

Oh Calvin will be wailing
when Dad gives him a whaling!

I love how we don’t see what happens next, we just get to imagine it as we wish!

Larry said, 5 months ago

Oh oh… parents should have had hind sight and muted that trumpet! A banana would’ve done nicely!

rshive said, 5 months ago

Seeing Dad in the next panel – priceless!

Music soothes the savage breast.
And blaring trumpets are the best
To awaken within us the savage beast
Though still yearning for the quiet peace,
While Calvin with his trampled horn thus ends his quest.
Richard said, 5 months ago

Another good reason to make birth control retroactive to 1950

But the (African) elephant is not a very smart mammal–as his trumpeting arouses a 10-tonne Piveteasaurus!

does anyone know how to e-mail and or contact this website?
Nils Tiebos said, 5 months ago

Why did his parents ever gave him a trumpet after all?
Macushlalondra said, 5 months ago

Looks like our favourite stip is coming to an end. If Calvin blows that trumpet Dad is going to kill him. Unless we want to read about the adventures of Hobbes who may find another little boy but he won’t be as much fun as Calvin.

Calvin is gonna be in deep sh^^ if he blows that horn!
Northwoodser said, 5 months ago

Holding my stomach and rolling on the floor!
cloudcat625 said, 5 months ago

Ah, elephants are my favorite animal… where’d he get the trumpet? It must be new, otherwise he would have done this a long time ago.

I wonder if this is what my kids had in mind when they jumped on the bed on Saturday mornings.
serenasakitty said, 5 months ago

His parents must be saints to have allowed him to survive for six years.
Carmy said, 5 months ago

I wonder if he’s going to play reveille.
Rmom said, 5 months ago

There’s a reason the only musical instrument my sons had were little toy xylophones.
DD FENCE EMET said, 5 months ago

Hey, has anyone seen the mechanical elephant in Nantes, France? Impressive. Now, calvin thinks he is bigger than he is. He has puffed himself up. Leavened up to the max. He is trying to get attention, even by means of a trumpet(shofar) but he hasn’t checked when the feast of trumpets is. He is trying though - much more humbling is needed, me thinks. Is this really Calvin, or his evil twin via past transmogrification? The wheat of the tare?

If my nephew were old enough to read I would send him this.

Once again Waterson shows his true tallents. Art, imagination & mystery…
Makes you wonder just how grown up he really is. :)
PityPat said, 5 months ago

I’m 63 years old, never been married and not a mother, but I adore Calvin. I can’t help but wonder how long a household would survive with Calvin and the dark-haired little girl from Non-Sequitor. I think the house would implode…but it would be hysterical until then. Thank you Mr. Waterson for bringing some laughter to this world with all the horrid news out there. Bootsgirl

This is one of my FAVORITE Calvin strips. You gotta love it!
grazer said, 5 months ago

Can’t think of anything more pathetic than seeing a five ton elephant crying and holding it’s butt.
txmystic said, 5 months ago

Why, o why in the name of all things holy would these seemingly reasonably intelligent people allow a bugle into the house????
chris whoreallycares said, 5 months ago

lol

Time for a spanking
bmonk said, 5 months ago

Oooh, the anticipation!

Right up there with the monsters-under-the-bed one: “You irritate them with the bicycle horn and I’ll get them with the arrows when they show up.”
ldyhwkd said, 5 months ago

grazer - thanks for the hilarious visual!:)

ninmas At the bottom of every page it says Help: then says FAQ’s/Tour/Contact Us/
Is that what you meant, how to contact GoComics???
starsinger119 said, 5 months ago

this reminds me sooo much of my little brother. he likes to play my moms old trumpet at early hours of the morning, as well as late hours at night. it gets annoying but nobody has complained yet!!(:

Carmy: More like the Last Post!
Shikamoo said, 5 months ago

At five tons, he is the largest land mammal with a teeny, tiny evil brain.
Richard said, 5 months ago

I do wish Mr Watterson would make a comeback, Calvin and Hobbes are too good to just fade into history.
vexatron1984 said, 5 months ago

Oh he wouldn’t see the light of day for at least a month if he were my kid.
Coffee-Turtle said, 5 months ago

talk about a rude awakening! :-D
teeterman said, 5 months ago

I see a swift back hand in Calvin’s future!
Wildmustang1262 said, 5 months ago

UH-OH! Love it! I can imagine his parents will shot waaaaaaaaaay up the roof after Calvin blows the horn very loudest. The karma will get Calvin for being a sinister mishievously.
LOLs! X-D
jestrfyl said, 5 months ago

Have you ever noticed how close the word “revile” is to “reveille”?
I think Calvin is about to become a paint color - smooshed against the wall.
Leonardeuler said, 5 months ago

Nice hilarious comment, Phil White.
Love it ………
