Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for December 17, 2020

Never argue with your lawyer, it only gets you into more trouble.

Gee, Calvin, I don’t know… what is the sound of that candy bar from Mars, Incorporated?

Leave it to Calvin to ruin one of his own plans.

I agree with Susie. I snickered also.

You and your big mouth have been looking for it . And Susie strike again .

Is Susie going to plead entrapment when she talks to Santa?

I love Snickers.

This one comes with a slushie :)

Love the expression on Susie’s face!

A slushball delivered by Susie = KARMA.

Calvin’s interaction with Hobbes is one of trying to accepting good behaviour over bad , but really not embracing the outcome if it’s not what you want.

Revenge is sometimes sweet. But prior revenge pushes the bar a bit.

I wonder what Santa is going to bring for Susie after this stunt?

Typical Calvin, never give your position away to the enemy…..

Susie is on the attack!

Susie is about to pour some (icy cold and semi-solid) water on Calvin’s plans! :D

Nice going Calvin, now all your plans are going to blow up in your face!

Is this going to cost Miss Derkins some Christmas loot? After all, Cal hasn’t done anything

That look in Susie’s eyes? Now that’s love!

Followed by a SPLOOCH

I like to read this strip without reading Hobbs comments. It’s really humorous to read how Calvin talks to himself.

Susie can be and can look just like Calvin when she has to.

…Calvin…this is just the cost of doing business…

LOL! Calvin’s in for it now!

Merry Karma.

Note to Calvin: Never, ever broadcast your plans to your victims.

Uh, oh, Susie’s a lefty!

Apparently, Susie is secure in her knowledge of Santa’s sense of justice, …and irony.

To the ComicAdmiral writing deep analysis of comic strips. ZZZZzzzzzzz

Oops…no presents for Susie.

Old, old adage. He who hesitates, gets it with a slushball.

You GO Suzie!

Calvin has no future as a Navy SEAL, does he?

Ninja rule #3 — do not yell while being covert

What Santa “understands” is that the upcoming slushball smack is totally justified.

The first rule about slushballs, is don’t talk about slushballs.

Annnnnd…. the train is about to pull into Comeuppanceville.

He’s going to get slushed while wrestling with his conscience.

YEAAAAAY ! Susie finally gets one back on Calvin !!!

She we tell Susie that gets her on the bad list

Umm, Suzy – Santa’s watching you too.

In England, I landed a snowball on a girl’s head from 50 yards. It was epic. And two weeks later, we were dating. Double score.

It’s amazing how sometimes life imitates art. I read today about how while the people currently in charge of our government were completely distracted by the imaginary tiger of “unsubstantiated voter fraud”, Russian military hacking operatives snuck up from behind and hit at least FIVE major U.S. governmental agencies with a big slushy ball of cyberespionage.

You shouldn’t have been talking so loud, Calvin. That was your mistake!

Watterson has said he based Suzie on his wife….

hes mental.

Spoiler alert (even for such and old strip).

I think kids should be able to see Hobbes as Calvin does. Just no adults.

The girl has all the reason to smack Calvin with snowball. Calvin is into foul play and Santa would love to see Susie do it, and give her loads of favourite dolls to play.

A Snicker… or maybe a One Musketeer…

Bad boy Calvin and bad girl Susie will get a gift from Santa: Each Other !!!

Looks like Calvin’s indecision will cost him dearly. Again…

Get ’im Susie!!!!

“We have met the enemy and he is us.”

After that she’ll call mental health services.

Calvin is kinda an idiot. And by kinda I mean a lot.

Susie’s expression in the last panel! XD! Calvin’s in for it now!
