I had a younger cousin like Calvin and my mom said they either turn out to be astronauts or end up in prison, because nothing fazes them- my cousin isn’t an astronaut (or an architect) but luckily he turned out OK!
Dutchboy1 says:”Calvin’s parents might want to have his mental health checked. This sounds like a very unhealthy fantasy.” I say Calvin has normal mental health, he embraces his dark side. Nietzche warned not to cast out your demons, lest you throw away the best part of yourself.
In “Homicide: Life on the Street,” Pembleton tells Baylis you can’t truly love yourself unless you embrace your evil side as well as your good side.

I love the “font” he drew the letters with in this one, and the art.

Architect??? No, with that attitude, more likely a CEO!!!

Will Calvin be become an architect when he grows up? I doubt it!

I think God and Calvin actually have a lot in common. Ever stood outside on a starry night looking up at God’s leftover tinkertoys??

Judging by the third panel, Calvin lives in the DC Comics universe.

Now i understand the world. We were created by an over-imaginative six year old with a severe god pathos. Now I see why we have problems as a planet!

Plus4 Thanks for pointing that out. I heard that Watterson originally had issues with the comic strip peoples.
Also, nice icon.
