Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for February 09, 2021

A problem Batman never experienced because Alfred always made sure to put the capes in the same place every time.

Or got rid of it.

Shout out to Calvin!

oh, Calvin’s gonna get hosed soon.

It’s a bird….it’s a plane…

I thought Batman’s tights looked kind of baggy at times, almost like he was wearing long johns!!

Hung up nicely, Calvin. The fourth hanger from the right in the closet.

What next? Caper of the missing cape, eh Calvin?!?

Stupendous Man!

Calvin’s expression in panel 2 & panel 5 goes from excitement (having come up with the solution) to sheer “cape less” frustration. Guess Suzie survives another day :)

Stupendously slow to change man!

Not all heroes wear capes…

Tell mom to stay OUT of your batcave, Calvin!

It’s right where you left it, on the floor!

By the time he finds the freakin’ cape either Susie or the snow will be gone.

Stupendous Man!

My name is Calvin. I really couldn’t find my cape.

A cape-less Stupendous Man should still be able to fix gravity or make it worse, hard to tell.

It’s impossible to become your super alter ego without a cape. What was Mom thinking?!

What’s that on his head? His underwear?

I hate when this happens.

Edna Mode would tell him he’s better without it!

Can’t do a thing without your cape!

He’s back. The man, er,kid behind the mask.

Stupendous, Mom!

The snowball-throwing cape is still packed away for the summer.

“This is a job for… CAPE-LESS BOY!”

here comes Stupendous man!

STUPENDOUS MAN!!!

That’s why every superhero should have a spare cape.

STUPENDO MAN

Stupendo Man! (My secret alter ego.)

Wardrobe malfunction…
