Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for June 03, 2014

Of Course you would, Hobbes! ;)

I would join the Hobbes Fan Club but would they have me for a member?

The Hobbes Fan Club, for those of a different stripe.

“I’m sure!” Sooo eighties. Today it would probably be “Soo NOT!”

And yes, I know the strip is dated 1994, but the expression is older. I had an instant flashback. “I’m sure!” “Really!”

@orinoco womble: GoComics started publishing Calvin & Hoibbes in 2007 and there were initially a lot of repeats. Those stopped and only fresh ones have been issued until two weeks ago since when every one has been a repeat. I hope they haven’t run out of fresh ones!

Very Edgar Wallace!

And never the twain shall meet….

The black hand of death is wimpy. I had the infamous belt of death. One belt with 5’ dry wall screws inserted into the eyelets is bound to make the kids around here laugh when I offer to beat them with it. Of course the little ankle biters will take THE INFAMOUS BELT OF DEATH away from me and give me a good hiding! Guess I’m doing something wrong!!

super fan club ha ha

That’s why you need to call your evil organization THRUSH or KAOS.

I don’t think Calvin knows what “vaguely” means.

I do too, Hobbes. Calvin’s idea is GROSS! ; -)

I know what THRUSH stood for (Technological Hierarchy for the Removal of Undesirables and the Subjugation of Humanity), but what did KAOS stand for?

GROSS!!

I like The Wimpy Kid & The Stuffed Tiger Club.

And then there’s the Man from U.N.C.L.E. Which in Spanish is CIPOL. Hardly as catchy.

Hmm, somewhat timely with the 100th anniversary of the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand coming up in a couple of months. The Black Hand was the name of the group that Gavrilo Princip, the successful assassin of the day, was a member of.

A previous attempt earlier in the day to blow the archduke up with a grenade failed, yet he pressed on. Gavrilo missed his first attempt because the crowds kept him from getting close, but managed to get his fatal shot in when the archduke’s driver later got lost and stopped the car right in front of him to make a U-turn.

I guess you can say that it was not a good day for the archduke.

M.A.R.S. (Military Armaments Research Syndicate)Run by Destro. From G.I. Joe.

V.E.N.O.M. (Vicious Evil Network of Mayhem)Run by Miles Mayhem. From M.A.S.K.

Wouldn’t the secret handshake of the Sinister Icy Black Hand of Death Club be kind of dangerous? I’m just sayin’…

I see another fight happening.

Right, which is why its opposite number (i.e., the good guys) was CONTROL (get it?).

This is probably the worst name ever but I’m still going to say it. How about “Club Anonymous”?

good comic

“I sure” ? When did Calvin become a Valley Girl?

what a violent name Calvin.

Don’t forget SPECTRE, you James Bond fans!

I think this is it!!!

With a name like that no one will want to join

Think, Calvin! The Hobbes Fan Club would attract more members, therefore, more dues to be collected!Let your greed be your guide!

They should call it the Club for the Liberation and Integration of Terrifying Organisms and their Rehabilitation Into Society. The acronym could be a problem, though.
