Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for February 08, 2013

wowowoow……..am first to day…

which ’s the best sandwich…?

Oh sure, just a little too much inky brine and it’s a bad sandwich.

Future salesman!

How can there be something fishy with Calvin’s sandwich because I smell a rat.

Nice job making Susie nauseous, Calvin.

Very true, young Calvin…

Calvin does not make a good sales pitch for that sandwich,I think he just wants to gross out Susie.

I’ve always been a big fan of peanutbutter & lizard!!!

When my husband was a kid, his Dad would make his lunch once in a while. Therefore, the oatmeal sandwich.

Good thing Calvin isn’t in the UK at the moment as just about all meat is turning out to be horsemeat. Though I notice that nobody was complaining before they found out what they were eating but it would ave given Calvin something to go ballistic about.

Lame. I live in Cambodia, now here they have some strange stuff that is considered food…….

Make your own sandwiches, Calvin!

On the bright side, Calvin, you got to gross Susie out.

Poor merchandising, Calvin!

Nothing wrong with the sandwich kid. It’s all in your warped imagination.

a classic look on Susie’s face.

She probably used sweet and sour pickles. Everyone one knows that you always use Dill pickles in a squid sandwich.

Try not to gross out your description. Play it up. Make it sound like its the best. Play your cards right and you might hit the jackpot. Future salesman indeed.

she could made him a vegemite(demon spawn) sandwich.

Looks like Susie is about to lose her sandwich in panel 3; that would put a smile on Calvin’s face and give him a great story to tell Hobbes when he gets home.

Should have gone with more of a Tom Sawyer approach. Too late to whitewash it now.

Wow…a kid with a thermos…don’t see that in recent decades.

Should have put ketchup on it Calvin.

Throw a few great big gobs of greasy, grimy gopher guts on there, Calvin.

I think Calvin prefers the slug sandwiches, or possibly the bug butter.

It’s more likely that Calvin waits for Susie to sit down so he can go sit next to her. The better to gross her out.

Blues Brothers!

Could be worse. In Sweden they eat rotted fish. Oh, and Iceland eats rotted shark. (Also, love Susie’s disgusted look!)

I didn’t expect much from a fellow who’s name here might be construed as dada—that is, anti-art, the rejection of logic, reason, and saying anything sensible.

Susie’s face in the 3rd frame is priceless! :-D

My son took raw oysters to school for lunch in 6th grade.

@bmonk: Dha Dha lives in Thailand and is learning English. Consequently, I always enjoy reading her posts.

It’s probably just peanut butter and jelly; Calvin just gets a neurotic thrill of grossing out Susie!

Surprised he didn’t say flatened eyeballs ’n snot.The object is to gross out anyone near him.

Dha, dha was happy to be first, that’s the point!

Why does Susie keep sitting next to Susie?

I adore roast beef san’s with onions and thousand island dressing and coleslaw and cheese. Also Reubens with very sharp toasted Rye bread. Here in SLC I don’t think that there is anyplace that makes sandwiches like this ….bleah, yuk, ptooey…

All this talk of PB&J, tuna fish and BLT sandwiches (all my favorites) REALLY has me craving at least one of them right now. Darn it! Why does it have to be meatloaf and mashed potato night instead?!? Ah, well. Better luck next time, I guess!

;-)

I’ll take the meatloaf & mashed potatoes. I’d take just about anything over PB&J or tuna. In fact, I love salmon sammies.

Peanut butter with strawberry jam. On whole wheat.

Leave it to Calvin to gross Susie out every lunchtime!

so sorry if my english not well coz it not mather language.. but i try..

What you said. Don’t let the ignorant bother you, Dha Dha

With white bread, liver is ‘wurst’!

I like to just take all the components of the sandwich, and build it right before eating it. When you put the ink brine on in the morning, it always soaks the bread up before noon. The squid seems to taste fresher too, when it hasn’t been between two sliced of bread all morning.

Some people are so picky :)

Oh, I’m so late here but that third panel is one of the funniest expressions Watterson ever drew on Susie.

Not after you loudly advertise how bad she is at making them.
