Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for December 30, 2019

“Happy New Year, Susie!”

(Strip originally ran January 1, 1990.)

You’ll get Calvin one of these days, Susie.

Wow! Gravity sometimes works!

The look on Susie’s face. PHBT! XD

If pranking people was a school subject, Calvin would get an A+ in it.

It did what Calvin hoped. What a nice change of pace

great shot

Calvin’s confirmation that karma exists. Susie’s confirmation that Calvin shouldn’t exist.

Calvin is helping her train to be the next Indiana Jones.

I can’t believe it worked this time! And without Hobbes’ assistance! That is probably the last time, Calvin.

Well done!

Calvin will treasure that memory for the rest of his life, and rightly so.

Not even in the new year and already on the naughty list for Santa

Next time, start with a snowflake from higher up!

Early entry for Calvin on Santa’s new naughty list.

Score!!

I heard a bowling strike in my head.

Lets be honest, it’s about the only way Calvin could get a hit…..

I could never make that happen. No matter what size I started with, it would roll a few feet (or less) and then just stop. And yes: I did live on a hill.

The snowball has reached an enormous dimension!!

Calvin may not be good at Math in school, but in the real world he is a genius at Math.

I hope Calvin’s life insurance is paid up.

I’m not a “snow guy”, but I’m guessing snowballs don’t get bigger and faster as roll down hill because… snowballs don’t roll downhill.

Calvin has cute little mitten-ed hands today.

Nice shot!

A little late for a “White Christmas.”

I’ll be darned, It did work!

Twenty years down the road, after they are married with 4 kids………. she will STILL be grousing at him over this!!!!!!!!!

“Hey man, nice shot!”

Christmas is over so it’s back to being a little brat eh Calvin?

And so your love will grow.

How come this only works in the comics?

As good as it gets

He has much better aim than Chevy Chase in “Funny Farm!”

Gratuitous cruelty is not funny.

Nice one Calvin XD!

I got in trouble for throwing snowballs at Mrs. Baker in San Diego over the weekend.

It’s war now, Calvin!

Pretty sure this doesn’t work in real life, but whatever. Cartoon physics.

When does the “naughty list” tally begin for the following Christmas?

I’m surprised she did not see and hear this one coming.

Moe SMASH!

Only one ‘pin’ knocked down, but it is a strike!

He really bowled her over. :D
