The first three commenters above, at least on my screen right now, are LWP, Adiraiju, and William Martin. Each of you is right, and it is those aspects of any work of fiction that make us love the characters. It is beyond me how anyone can do it within the confines, and under the pressures of, a daily comic strip space for a month, never mind XX years.

When Calvin’s not actively trying to annoy her, Susie and Calvin do tend to get along better than most characters in the strip.

When I was a kid, photographers always took away my glasses for school pictures. So of course I squinted. Then Mom complained I wasn’t photogenic.

Back then mom’s made children look great for school picture. Now days not so much. For mine that age I tried to make mine look great for picture day.

If Calvin could color his hair pink, it would be a very up-to-date pussyhat!

Hmm… what would Susie do with her hair once it’s crisco-ed?
