Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for July 22, 2018

What about the eating part?

Calvin grew some extra arms in the 8th panel.

With friends like that, …

Hobbes should either be friends with or compete with Tigger.

Um, there’s only one reason a tiger (or any cat) wants to be in a sandbox.

It will not help, Calvin, Hobbes is bigger, stronger and more crafty than you are!!

Direct hit!

You gotta love Hobbes in stalking mode.

I just love Calvin and Hobbes. This one tells such an evocative story without needing any dialog at all until the final panel, and that dialog perfectly expresses the mental state of both of them as a result of the actions in the previous panels.

Love how apart from his paws only his whiskers are visible in the first panel …

Did Hobbs include the famous kitty butt wiggle before pouncing?

The thrill of the hunt.

Really like the colors and artistry today; sometimes ‘simple’ says it best.

One of my Favorite C+H strips…it says so much by saying so little.

Hobbes: live to pounce – pounce to aggravate

Each panel forms the whole of a masterpiece.

Watterson, we will never see your like again.

Yes.

I always love when Watterson draws Hobbes in “pounce mode.”

Hobbes mustn’t have gotten enough air. Prior pounces like this have knocked Calvin’s shoes and socks off.
