Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for October 11, 2018

Hobbes, go sleep on the couch!

Says the tiger with fishy breath.

Geez I always thought Tigers were more sympathetic than that.

Calvin, take a Pepto-Bismol (liquid form or chewable tablet)

Ah, there he is.

Hobbes IS worried.

Tigers show no mercy.

Hobbes, let getting him well again and don’t disturb!

I’m just cracking up at Calvin’s bug-eyes in the last panel. Those are the eyes of a kid who has just awakened into pure confusion.

Try sharing a bedroom with an older sibling. We were forced to share germs of childhood diseases like chickenpox and measles “because I’m not going to play nurse for a month! Get in there and let them breathe on you!”

Hobbs knows what is wrong with Calvin . He’s done a CAT scan on him already!

Good thing Calvin has Mom, because he gets no sympathy at all from Hobbes!

Annnd there is nothing worse than an imaginary friend who is offended by your sickness…

Once again, I’m left wondering how married couples handle it when one spouse is sick and the other one is healthy!

Mom showing Calvin some empathy, I told you her mothers instinct would kick in… eventually.

I remember being sick and on my back was worse, I sleep on my side exhausted.

If Calvin needs to vomit again, he’s got the perfect target.

You all expected sympathy from a TIGER???

I wondering when Hobbes was going to show up. That was an unusually large span of consecutive days without a Hobbes appearance.

Moms really are the angels god sent for all of us. :)

I really like the look on Calvin in panel 2.
