Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for January 21, 2020

At some point the duplicates need to do the same thing to Susie that they did to Dad earlier.

The bus stop is normal…

And Calvin failed to tell the duplicates what are his locker, its combination, his classroom, his assignment(s), and any other necessary scholastic tidbits?

Calvin’s teacher is gonna have quite a day.

This could last for a while.

See how many people he can con in one day!!

Susie should believe him. The normal Calvin would never be so polite to her.

7 of 9? No, 2 of 5.

Not even in school and he’s on his way to the Vice Principal’s office. You got to wonder what the duplicates and Calvin are doing at home. Mom’s there so they watch TV, steal cookies, go outside. They’re probably killing each other.

Help him find it by stuffing him inside it.

I wonder if it was Calvin or a dup who got off this week for MLK day.

Has she always been monobrowed?

His commitment to the bit is admirable.

Not much of a Duplicate, if he doesn’t know where to find the locker—or Susie….

Urgh, how long does this arc last?

I wonder why Susie still talks to Calvin.

The class clone.

Let’s see how many things the duplicate(s) can mess up at Calvin’s school.

Why does he work so hard at trying to not work

Do all the clones suffer from amnesia? Yet they knew who mom and dad were.

Isn’t he supposed to know everything Calvin knew two days ago?

“Blank Slate” or “Ignorance” is not always synonymous with “Innocence” when Calvin is involved.

Susie is such a sweet girl.

Tomorrow’s strip has one of the best meme panels out there.

(Calvinist, don’t spoil)

If he really wanted to screw with the real Calvin’s head, he could ask Susie to be his girlfriend!

Wait… he doesn’t have Calvin’s memories? Then how did he recognize his mom? Suzie? How did he know which bus stop to stand at? Okay, I’m starting to think this is all fake. This isn’t a real clone; it’s an impostor sent by a competitive strip to spy on what Calvin’s doing.

OMG Sizie, what a power position you are in!!!! Duplicate #2 is putty in your hands…remold him, reshape him, destroy him!

…But then, she continues talking with him.

You know he’s a duplicate because Hobbes isn’t there.

My clones make more mischief than they’re worth.

Miss Wormwood will be so delighted to meet Calvin’s duplicates.

it seems weird that the duplicates have personality and full knowledge of the english language and stuff yet lack memories such as who his parents are and where his locker at school is.

I’m starting to believe there really are Calvin duplicates.

Poor Susie! I cannot stop laughing … oh dear, oh dear — LOLOL

Makes me want to rewatch the series, Orphan Black:
