I’m just curious how many of you are aware that Calvin and Hobbes ended in 1995, and that these are reruns. Because many of you are speculating on what is going to happen next.
Yeah, Watterson is still around- gave an interview back in Feb. He retired mostly because he didn’t want Calvin and Hobbes to get stale, as many comics do. I was really sad when it happened, but I think it was wise of him to let Calvin and Hobbes go out on top.
Yes, they are repeats, but some people didn’t read them back then, and don’t know what happens next. And as a general rule, the people that do try not to spoil anything
It’s pretty difficult (if not impossible) to reason with someone who doesn’t have a brain – or a conscience – to feel badly for the horrible things they say and do to other people.
SensibleMan, maybe you should be called insensitivedolt. As you can read, most of us enjoy marg’s comments and actually dislike the kind that you made.
SensibleMan,
Get a grip.
When Marg’s at the top of the page, the world has a steadiness to that is very reassuring.
If you do not want to read the comment Move on.
Get over it.
SensibleMan, I see that you have made exactly one comment since you signed up today. Hopefully your future comments will be used for something other than as a means to criticize someone else.
SensibleMan - (or not) Many of us enjoy Marg’s comments, but we typically do not enjoy comments that are rude or insensitive to other commenters.
ratlum - keep in mind that not everyone follows the same schedule as you do. There are those on these boards from all over the world and various time zones, as well as those that work nights rather than days. Just because someone is on during turnover does not mean that they are staying up simply for the purpose of being first.
I love Calvin and Hobbes, and I love hearing from Marg. Having her the first or second commentor brings a sense of serenity to the world. Have you noticed SensibleMan that all of her comments are about the comic strip AND very positive!!!!!! She is a great role model to follow!!!!
Wow, I’m off for a few hours and miss all the excitement! We love you Marg!
astrozombie, this story ain’t over yet - and not everybody sees winning the same way – I think Calvin comes up a winner here.
BTW - for someone who wants people to comment on the comics, calling people rude names while NOT commenting on the comics does not exactly sell your case.
Bullies and SPAMMERS!
As for the comic strip, how sad that Calvin came to such a wise decision… and then the last frame… I don’t like the way this is shaping up!
I usually reserve my comments about other people’s comments, but today has been one RUDE comment after another, both in language and personal character assassination. Why don’t we leave this for the politicians and stick to comics… which, btw, is why we are here, right?
I like reading the comments Marge leaves, not comments critical of others comments. Somehow though this seems to fit in with what Calvin is going through.
Perhaps our recent barrage of negative campaign ads have had a residual subliminal effect on our civility.
A good rule to live by: If you can’t say something nice, just shut up!
And as far as the vulgar use of profanity… it only reflects your own lack of mastery of the English language!
However, just so my message is not lost on anyone wondering what I’m trying to convey to them… just read the comic, make cute comments, and cut the crap!

I could never understand why original Calvin and Hobbe’s ended so early. Waterston is still around, isn’t he?

Not to have brains is pretty bad, Moe, but not to have a conscience is far worse …

Besides, many who did read them daily have forgotten since. And it’s fun seeing the plot develop anew.

We all love Marg! When she’s not at the top of the comments, something is wrong with her.
I’m surprised at the swear words that make it past the nanny-bot.
I forget if Calvin ever gets his truck back. I should go check my books.
ellisaana Premium Member about 14 years ago
Who’s on first, what’s on second matters less to me than the comic.
But if other people like an order to their day,, that is their choice.
I read this comic before, too, but have forgotten how the story proceeds.
My guess is Moe gets bored with the truck and leaves it behind.
tis4kis about 14 years ago

DerkinsVanPelt218 about 14 years ago
It seems Moe is unfamiliar with the concept of sarcasm, or just does not see sarcasm as it applies to him.
